It's the biggest selling console because people who don't play games buy it. </BLOCKQUOTE>
And how exactly is that different from any other console in history...
Someone has to buy games like Barbie's adventure...Horsez...Hanna Montana...Sponge Bob Square Pants.
Majority of console owners has and always will be casual/non-gamers.
Your not seeing anything different...the only telling difference is instead of launching a console at mainly targetting the hardcore gamer like the typical console strategy...Nintendo marketed the Wii straight away towards the non-gamer/casuals who have always been the majority.
