anyone that cooks is not a chef.
Like I said, when I was being very polite about it;
" I'm only talking about traditional ideas. A "non-gamer" would be someone who bought the wii for something like wii-fit or something similar. It is only because there is really no other word to describe this demographic that I used non-gamer. I don't know what you would want me to call them. The only inference here is that they are not the type to be drawn by so-called traditional gaming."
What should I call people who aren't attracted by platformers, rpgs, 3rd person games and the like?
Just because the letters "er" appear at the end of the word "gamer" it does not make the word "a person or thing that games". Gamer implies that they have some investment in gaming.
For some reason you want to apply the most broad meanings to everything today. Diversity can mean quality, someone who played a video game is a gamer... what next? Am I considered an editor when I hit edit on my post?
IF you are going to respond to anything, respond to this following statement:
There is a difference between people who only use wii fit or occasionally play wii sports when friends come over, and people who are interested in many genres of gaming. Would you prefer I call them casuals? Because I know you have an irrational problem with that word too.
EDIT: maybe the difference is that some people play games to play them and some people USE them to relax... anyway please respond to the previous point.
