Casuals like affordable pricing, and casuals like OFFLINE multiplayer, so you can play the game with your family. Casuals don't go online unless it's for Snood or e-mail.
Online games won't win casuals. Sony priced themselves out of the casual battle, and the casual battle is the battle that wins the war every single generation. They're fighting for 2nd, and since Microsoft is still opting out of the Japanese race, it looks like Sony will get 2nd eventually. Worldwide, but not in the U.S.
And FastRabbit09's right. I have an HDTV, and the only things I have hooked up to it are my Wii, my DVD player, and my VCR. I still rock VHS. I'll upgrade to HD content as soon as more pixels means more fun. I bought my TV for the inches, not for the pixels.
