There's no such thing as casual/hardcore games. Casual or hardcore is in the way you play games, not the games themselves. If you have seen some Wii Play youtube videos you probably know what I mean.
The same for chess, you can play it casually or hardcore.

Why do game sites call it casual?
|
Because most game journalists are clinging to the casual/hardcore distinction in order to prop the 360/PS3 up and the Wii down?

Stop with all the bullshit theories. You know how pathetic it makes you (and Nintendo fans as a whole) look?

What "theories"? A large number of them dropped the pretense a while back and are open about their anti-Wii biases now.
Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
