PS2 may have catered to casuals, but they did not offer the same type of casual games as the Wii. They had the majority of 3rd party under heavy lockdown. The Wii doesn't have 3rd party under heavy lock down. The casual games are all straight from Nintendo (Which is a great thing). The Wii has broken a whole NEW casual market. Most of the PS2 installed base has yet to be cracked despite the fact that the majority were bargain shoppers. This Christmas is an important Christmas, so be ready to see numbers for all three systems. As i've said, the Wii stands alone as it always has. The only hardcore crowd Nintendo has forgotten are the Nintendo loyalists. They want to see more nintendo stars have games of their own. Thats what they mean by hardcore. So hardcore man...I can't wait for the Wii to get the new House of the Dead. No offense to the HD consoles but I love playing House of the Dead on the Wii more, because its a totally different experience. More realistic and arcady. No offense, but as i've said. Nintendo stands alone because it is the only one taking risks in pushing next gen gameplay, while the Sony and MS only focus on the same old shit.
