The Wii won the 7th console generation.

Vague term. You should define what a gaming generation is then and ultimately that gets us to the same question.

The Wii sorely went after a specific crowd, with a specific type of software and has a toxic legacy as a brand. It lost gamers. It lost publishers.

Your playing with your definition of casual

 

That's you. "Casual gamers" is pretty much self explanatory. You might look down on Fifa but the people that play it are loyal (as costumers) and commited (as gamers) as it comes. Can you say the same about Wii Fit U for Wii U  ?

 

7th console generation is vague but casual gamers is self explanatory?

Boy this is silly. Don't quote me, I don't want to continue this conversation.

It's like you don't realize the PS2 sold over 150 million on the backs of the very "casual" crowd the Wii stole from it. The Wii was absolutely competing with the PS3, for the PS2 audience.

And Sony definitely wanted that PS2 audience, that's why the PS3 was a Blu Ray player.

And you know this how exactly? Who says there wasn't a Blu Ray player to push the Blu Ray format? 

Same way the PS2 pushed the DVD format. Both were to sell more players to make Sony more money. The same request applies to you, though. Don't quote me again.
