Probably the biggest, best selling single genre for video games is non-violent: sports games. And racing games are non-violent as well, you have an entire generation of kids raised on Mario Kart and Gran Turismo. Football, baseball, and golf games continue to be the killer apps for the "non-geek" console owner set. Wii sports alone has sold millions and millions of Nintendo's system, and it looks like Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games will be similarly huge.
