Casuals - This is where I have to agree whole heartedly. I don't think casuals will be in any rush to upgrade to WiiU. At the same time those that do want to upgrade might end up going Kinect or Move which will both be cheaper and have alot of casual support. I think Nintendo really failed to target the casual market with this new console. If Nintendo had wanted to truly target the market they would have released a newer Wiimote with a camera much like Sony's Move. I don't think casuals will see the new controller as enticing.

Didn't you see the demo where they were playing golf with the Wiimote and the Wii U controllers was on the ground below where she was swinging. They were using the Wii U controller just like the Move with their camera. The Wiimote will still be used in combination with the new controller.

Actually, it was using the Wiimote just like it is used today. The Wii U was only giving a visual representation of the ball and isn't aiding in the tracking. And while I think that is a neat feature, I don't see the casuals who were attracted to the Wii with motion gaming running to put down money on a new system where the motion gaming is going to be mostly the same. Especially if they have small children in the home. No way I'm putting that controller on the floor while I have kids playing in the house. I agree with Joelcool when he says that Nintendo should have released uprgraded controllers and/or a different way of traking them. Something MS and Sony are most likely going to be doing when they release their next gen systems.
