Casual titles still ruling in the console charts. Six out 10 are casual. A lot of this is down to the installed user base. So if you want true figures you need to look at the figures relatively.
And its this installed user base that is driving developers to release a flurry of games. However personally I think developers should be focusing on the Play Station Network. Its an ideal time to gain some ground and start leading the way. Its not cluttered, and I believe that this machine has a longer life span than its competition. This is how it will play out! Eventually Sony will allow players to do almost anything you can do on the Wii, the titles and content that are on Wii will eventually be available in some form or another. The experience that you can have on The PSN will be very broad and more importantly wont be matched on the Wii. Peripherals will extend the life of the PS3 way beyond the Xbox or Wii due the machines superior power and capability. Eventually people who own Wii's will want a broader experience and more choice they will get tired of the same old same old.
So unless the Wii grows with its audience and supporters it will eventually lose out to PSN & Microsoft
One thing Microsoft and PSN could do to speed up this race is make decision to allow cross platform communications between PC, mobile, ITV & Console networks. Then we have a truly awesome setting for the world playing together. Like they said in Berlin bring down the WALL !!!
