All I know, re: this whole Mario debate, is that most of the people I know who really like Mario games also own and play a huge variety of other games. On the other hand, I know a LOT of people who only play Halo, COD, etc. So really, doesn't that make Halo and COD casual, and Mario hardcore?

This whole argument is completely stupid. S.T.A.G.E. says that the DS is less targeted toward core gamers than PSP because PSP has a higher PERCENTAGE of core games, despite the DS having a vastly higher QUANTITY of core games. No one is arguing that the PSP is casual, but if you write off the DS because it has Brain Age and that cooking game, you are missing out on the largest and best (BY FAR!!!!) core library of any system this generation.
