You should look at PS2 software sales. The PS2 was a beast at moving games geared at casual audiences. Something PS3 was much less successful with.

PS2, Wii, and Xbox 360 had pretty large casual audiences. That doesn't seem to be a significant audience this gen and I'm not sure that will change.

360 sold a it of casual but not too much more than the PS3. Either way most sales for both were for the hardcore. And good riddence to the casual crowd, forces our lot to make more games that the likes of me and you actually enjoy. LOL imagine the PS4 got the wii casual crowd. Sony would be wasting preciuos developer space make things like SOnyDOgs and Pii Fit or whatever. EWWWW. 

Well the 360 did have a bigger casual audience thanks to Kinect. They were moving tons of party games, dance games, fitness, etc.

I enjoy some casual friendly games on occasion. I genuinely had fun with stuff like Kinect Sports (1 and 2) and Kinect Adventures. I'll eventually get Kinect Sports Rivals as well. Fantasia is a pretty good game as well based on the demo and reviews, I may grab that down the road.

Sony did want the Wii casual crowd, so they made the PS Move and a lot of games for it. They also wanted the mobile gaming market and that's why Vita exist. Sony is (or was) trying to appeal to a wider audience but still pleasing their core audience.
