A sale is a sale as far as I'm concerned.

True. But, you still can't count that bloat from casuals as a true long lasting growth in the industry, one thats used to show the industry is shrinking, now. Home consoles should go on to sell the same, maybe a little bit more, when compared to Gen 6. The core market seems to be holding strong, while there are fewer casuals. 

You're opening a can of worms but if you insist: so how do you propose we filter out casuals? Is it feasibly possible to do so with the resources at our disposal? For that matter, what is a casual? Also, is it impossible that the PS2 era and eras prior had its fair share of casuals? I'm sure some purchased a PS1/2 because not only did it play games but also played CDs/DVDs and I think it's possible some used it more for the latter than the former.

Wanna take a crack at it, thismeintiel?
