It seems Sony may have a hit on their hands with EyePet. How so, you ask?
As the Wii experience has taught us, so-called casual gamers love to buy useless pseudo games that core gamers would never touch.
EyePet apperas to meet all the necessary criteria to become a huge success:

-wholesome "fun" for the whole family
-no violence, so parents love it
-no challenge or traditional level structure
-low scores in reviews by core gamers
-totally useless but super cute

I don't believe people who post in forums like this are qualified to speak on what will be a hit with people who aren't videogame hobbyists.  As can be seen by the above writing, it takes cheap shots at people who have more to do with their lives than play videogames.
