EA Sports makes games for the hardcore. Hardcore gamers don't want peripherals. Too complicated for their lazy self.

Sports games are hardcore? LMFAO.

There isn't a bigger casual genre.

I said EA Sports makes games for the hardcore. That's the audience they're reaching.

LOL... what EA are you talking about? A fraction of EA's games are hardcore, most are casual.

EA goes where the money is. Why do you think they are investing so heavily in social and mobile gaming. 

Anyone can play a game like Wii Sports but you have to be somewhat of a fervent fan of soccer to get into a game like FIFA. That's the kind of hardcore I'm talking about.

And I specifically mentionned EA Sports.
