I wouldn't call myself a casual gamer. Probably a mix of both. I have a Wii and Xbox 360 and I like them both. After 5 years, I also find the Wii overrated. I never play it anymore and probably the only Wii game I want this year is Skyward Sword

But when you say Nintendo is making the console for the money, that's obvious. All companies want money. It's like their blood. The company needs it to survive. But I disagree with the accusations that Nintendo is lazy and just wants money. Nintendo basically invented video games for the world. Their goal is to innovate gaming forever, not to create gimmicks. It's a very risky business, and that's probably why the Wii failed so badly. I will say however the 3DS has won me over, and I believe that the Wii U has a fighting chance. It does have HD graphics now, so it can compete with the 360 and PS3. I'm not sure about the competition between its sucessors, considering they might update their graphics, but Nintendo definitely has a head start. From what I've seen they have lots of third party titles, so I think Wii U might actually bring in some hardcore gamers. I convince you to give it a shot. P.S. From my hardcore side, the 3DS is doing pretty well. I own Super Street Fighter 4 3D on it and it's amazing and I'm hoping to get Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D.
