I don't agree with that. I think non-traditional gamers want to play the non-traditional games but at the same time enter the regular gaming market. That's why Galaxy is such a perfect title becuase Mario is the most well known video game character. It's something that even these non gamers can refer to and say I know who that is. Why do you think New Super Mario Bros sold so well? It sold to more than just hardcore gamers.
But maybe that's why Galaxy started off a slight bit slow is because the bulk of people buying it will be the casual/non gamer who buy randomly or during holiday seasons.
I don't think too many people should be scared about the sales of Galaxy in Japan cause I think in the long run it'll probably either hit or beat expectations for the game.
