No. Their userbse is not the same that has Wii. Wii appeals to all people, while PS360 to a more experience (in videogames) users.


I suppose I am not experienced in video games even though I have been playing since Atari 2600 days. 

I think it more has to do with Mario selling like crazy (Mario Kart, NSMB) and Wii Play benefiting from being bundled with a remote.  Having a high install base only ensures that Mario games sell even more. 

If you're experienced or not don't matter, because Wii appeals to everyone (even the experienced ones). I just use experience instead hardcore.

Okay got it.  I personally hate the casual vs hardcore argument myself.  Someone can play Animal Crossing hardcore (8 plus hours a day) yet it is labeled as casual game.  I think the whole thing just exploded after the 16 bit era when Nintendo was starting to be labeled as for kids (internet just helped with the name calling also).  So all the kids (wanting to make themselves as more adult) jumped onto the Sony bandwagon and deemed Nintendo as just for kids.  A game is a game that can be played and enjoyed by anyone.  You are right Nintendo appeals to more demographics.
