From business and market share perspectives most hardcore gamers are those of 360, ps3, pcs and maybe some bit of psp and nds. While casual ones are mostly wii, nds and psp. Some example of colleagues of mine who considers gaming only revolving around wii Sport, fit and mario kart while myself around CoD, Tales, FFs, Gears and RE and bunch of other stuffs. So yeah you can distinct them. As for the market share on the entertainment industry on gaming division alone 60-80 % of them belong to casual gamer, while rest are hardcores.

Yeah I consider myself as hardcore because I don't consider gaming only resolves around wii Sports and yada yada.
