casuals burned how ? they knew what they are buying and enjoyed wii sports(resort),wii fit, mario etc...at a super price point. and most people(casuals) buy it for someone as a gift.

How hyped it was, they bought it, used it for a week, then most never touched it again.  The marketing and technology of the Wii got them to purchase it and afterwards I'm sure they felt they blew their money. So yeah, they got burned.

There's a difference between getting hyped up about the marketing of the George Foreman grill and using it every day and the Wii where you use it for a week and realize you threw $200  on something you're never going to touch again.  No pun intended for the prior sentence if they're casual, pun intended if they're a gamer who bought the Wii and PS3.

used for a week ? then how did they manage to sell 30 mil. wii sports resort and  over 20 mil. wii fit plus games/accesories 3 years after launch ? how do you explain over 65 mil. wiimotes sold ? for what reason are people buying wiimotes then for games. if we look at the DS why did it drop in sales ? no one can say it didnt have games or that it was a casual handheld or games didnt sell..simply put all people who care about games already had one  be it casual or not and thats the case with the wii.
