Oh boy... Gaming was a hobby for a specific group back in the early days before the 6th gen, but nowadays that couldn't be farther from the truth. The Wii was one of those things that really paved the way for expanding that gap. We had people of all ages playing games, including people who never played games. It got people together to just have a good time. That was the point of the Wii, and yeah, that did pretty dang well. Heck, the DS did the same thing with having games like brain age, animal crossing and Nintendogs. It got people from all ages enjoying games. People young and old are still playing Animal Crossing.

I think you're wrong there. The Wii was a short-lived sucess and as soon as it died the Wii owners went away. The casual gamers went to play on their phones maybe but they did not go on to buy a PS4 or Xbox or buy games like Uncharted or Doom.
