wait, Rachael Ray called it Wii Play "the greatest game ever"?

Well, that settles it, GOTY is given. Everyone else needs to SHUT UP!! IGN, Gamespot... clearly have NO IDEA about anything regard gaming.

Sarcasm aside, Yes, casual gamers are taking over, but it doesn't mean I will convert. Being a gamer is already a 'niche' hobby, I don't mind being a 'niche' gamer either.

Convert? Are the casual gamers doing a crusade against hardcore gamers or something? I missed those news, please post a link.

Some of the casual gamers will convert to hardcore gamers later, not the opposite.

 


Crusade in the mediveal sense? no, but in a 21th century captialist way? yes. Overrush of casual gamers will most likely prompt overflow of casual games, which in term will make developers rushing in to make cheap, halfassed mini-games that can generate high profit.

The result? hardcore market gets left-out with mininal support.

Yes, some will convert to hardcore gamer, but will that be greater than the number of hardcore gamer quitting gaming altogether from lack of good games for them? Well, that's what the question will be in 4-5 years.
