Remember that Famitsu most-wanted lists are never an indicator of how well a game will sell. I mean, wasn't Lost Odyssey at or near the top for so long? And look how well that game did. These lists are more a measure of how much hype is affecting core gamers than anything else.
"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."
