"Casual Gamer" fits in that I have kids and I very rarely get enough time to invest in a game, so arcade games fit perfectly when I've got 30 minutes or so to play.

I hate "casual games" which is what most games on mobile phones and tablets are these days. Well, I don't really hate casual games, but moreover I hate the grinding away at coins and points or even preventing you from playing the game for hours (looking at YOU Candy Crush). What happened to actually BEATING a game, instead of forcing the player to grind away at the next upgrade that is thousands of points/coins away? It doesn't make the game more immersive, it makes it ANNOYING and eventually makes me stop playing it.

I feel as though casual gaming and DLC is pretty much going to be causes of the next video game crash, and IMO why indie gaming is where most of the great ideas and innovation are made.
