Maybe not with that game, but that is in many ways a "Gateway Drug." It may be candy crush now, but it could possibly opens their mind to other gaming possibilities they would have previously written off.
People said the same stuff about the Wii, and yet it brought gaming to a lot of "Non-Gamers." That is never a bad thing.

You want to go ahead and ask Nintendo how that worked out for them? It wasn't a gateway to gaming at all, they bought the Wii, and then never bought another console after that.
I would be willing to bet that the stats on people moving from mobile gaming, to "hardcore" gaming would show very little movement at all.

Yeah because Nintendo did such a great job capitalizing on their new users /s
Prediction for console Lifetime sales:
Wii:100-120 million, PS3:80-110 million, 360:70-100 million
[Prediction Made 11/5/2009]
3DS: 65m, PSV: 22m, Wii U: 18-22m, PS4: 80-120m, X1: 35-55m
I gauruntee the PS5 comes out after only 5-6 years after the launch of the PS4.
