If this isn't a casual orientated game. I don't know what is.

Come on your post even says that Sony is after the Core market while the Wii strategy is Blue Ocean. If you consider who did what first and neglect system direction stance then No. Sony is not the true leaders of the casual market. It's Nintendo, but that's only from the current companies. If we go back even farther we would put the true casual market to Bushnell.
It's odd because almost everything in the article can be reversed to represent NES & PS1. "Expanded audiance", "Nintendo refined Sony’s efforts/Sony refined Nintendo's efforts"
I think we are smarter than just System X fan needing their egos stroked because of insecurities. You know what the they say "the louder you are the more you are trying to protect yourself". Considering the Wii hate lately and the current state of sales seems to me that this is true.
ahh memories. I remember this shift in the days from Nintendo(N46) to Sony(PS1). I pretty much did what all these insecure ego fan boys did at the time. Whine bitch and try to dig in my feet. I'm older now. I have a PS1, PS2, GC, Wii... You tend to grow up and follow a gaming philosophy or in Christens words "new values". I value game play and experience with the play more than I value hardware or brand.
Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.
