Casual gamers will soon later in the future buy the MEtroid, MArio and other games on wii. Because they'll want to try something diferrent and wonder why people like them. It will happen. Then they'll be a big increase in wii games sales.

This is somewhat true. I don't see the grandmas ,and parents who are casual doing this rather than the children and young adults. They would get tired of their minigames and want some depth and would turn to the hardcore crowd for this. Only about 10% of casuals on the wii will do this though. That is still alot. I could see mp3 reaching 2-3 mil if this happends.


well don't forget that some of the grandma and grandpas have probably played some of the old nintendo games back in the old dayz. I think about 20-30% casuals will jump on our bandwagon


 Well most people who played 2d games cannot play 3d games too well. My mom bought a snes for herself and played and beat 30 games on it. When I got a n64 the only game she beat was Mario 64 ,because the 3d made her too dizzy. Also instead of grandmas and grandpas I could see parents playing these games. 


 

Ah. I never knew 3d made some people dizzy.

Some will, some wont. My Friends girlfriend honest to got thinks carnival games is the best thing on the Wii, and wondered why her boyfriend was playing Mario Galaxy :/ She said she had 0 interest in ever playing it and that she didn't get the point. Some casual gamers will just keep buying casual games on the rare occasions that they do :/

My other friend got his Wii at launch and bought Zelda Twilight princes shortly after, he finished that once, and has only played Wii sports since with no intention of buying another game. There are also hardcore gamers that end up having less time for games and they eventually start picking up casual titles also.

So I'd say the statement is actually rather wrong :x
