Its not so much about the resolution but more about visual fidelity.
Both the 360 and PS3 sold well because its games looks much better than PS2. Its glaringly obvious when you see the games on the systems. The resolution of these games is partly what makes these games look better than PS2 games. Its obviously not the only factor. Take any PS1 game and bump up its resolution to 4k and it will look like complete shit.
Take a game like Ryse...Ryse will probably sell well based on its looks. It looks notably better than last gen games...yet its not native 1080p but it does have a significant higher resolution. This higher resolution though isnt needed for the game to look better than current gen but it goes a long way in helping.
So yeah i think consumers do care about resolution. And im not just talking about forum gamers..im talking about casuals...the 140 million people who bought a ps3 or 360. They just might not know it.
