I think you overtimate the value of casuals. Nintendo put their game on them with the Wii and now payed the price with the Wii U.

This i don't understand. Every generation has been successful because of so called casual gamers. Thats where the growth happens...


The problem with the casual gamers: they are not brand loyal. And why should they? Gaming is not a big part of their life, it is only a small part of their entertainment.

There aren't 50+ million Wii casuals who impatiently waited for the Wii successor.

Some of them liked the dance, fitness or sport minigames, but wanted better graphics or better tracking of their movements... a big part of them moved on to Kinect.

Some of them liked the dance, fitness or sport minigames and are perfectly fine with the Wii graphics... a big part of them will use the Wii until it breaks and don't care for new hardware.

Some of them liked casual games and found thousands of them dirt cheap or free on tablets and smartphones and are happy with their new device.
