I said nothing of core or casual gamers. Wii has done well this gen because motion controls grabbing new gamers and it is the only console to have any.

But you doubt that these new gamers could develop any loyalty to Nintendo or that they at the very least would like to play sequels to games like Mario Kart Wii. Right...
Another thing that I didn't quite catch the first time is you saying that Sony and MS will offer something to match Nintendo right from the start. How can you be so sure about that, if 1. Nintendo usually is good at keeping secrets and 2. Nintendo usually launches last. For all we know Nintendo could come up with something completely new and Sony/MS wouldn't have the time to match Nintendo's offerings in time, because that simply can't be done within six months.

not casual gamers, nintendo have it fanbase, due mario and zelda, but loyalty doesn't reallly exist for the casual market, consumer will continue buy your product as you please them, but the market nintendo have right now it's unpredictable, they found a gold recipe for casual games.
before ipod everybody had a CD player walkman from sony, now sony ericcson revived the brand with walkman phones, and now every phone have a decent mp3 players outselling ipod by tons.

If "casual gamers" are indeed unpredictable, then that means saying that they won't buy the next Nintendo console is nothing more than a random guess without anything substantial to back it up.

i am not saying they will not, i am saying they are not loyal. there fore they may actually buy microsoft if natal if successful or sony.
sony had them with ps2, with games like singstar. an they lost all their casual gamers.

Did Sony have them with the PS2? The Wii seems to be selling to a lot more people then the PS2 was.
In addition, Singstar has actually held up pretty well sales wise.
PS3 Singstar sold around .88 Million. Not horrible considering how horrible Sony is managing that brand.
