Nintendo is hardcore. (Tetris is, OG DonkeyKong is, Angry Birds is etc)
COD etc. Is not. Its not hardcore when you can play the whole single player campaign without dying/failing and the only challenge comes from other people (not from the game itself)
The difference is accessible or non-accessible. Hardcore and casual are NOT each others opposites.
Maybe you mean mainstream?
