True enough ... but I was thinking in much broader terms.

While the Playstation and Gameboy systems have had massive success by building libraries of games that would be called "Casual" today, most consoles and the PC have seen a lot of successful "Casual" games (sold 125,000+ copies); and there has been to of flash games that have satisfied gamers throughout the years. While I don't have numbers to back it up, I suspect games like The Sims have nearly as large of an audience as most of the biggest "Hardcore" games, and these kinds of gamers were mostly ignored heading into this generation.

Well we know that the Bejeweled franchise ( 1 & 2 ) has sold 25 million copies in 8 years.
