Wow, who knew kids liked video games.

I thought everyone was like me, and only grew fond of them after getting older.

The Wii to me is equivalent to a fisher price gaming system. I don't even count it as competition for MS & Sony.

Well, of course the Wii ain't competing in the same league as the PS3 and Xbox 360.
The PS3 and Xbox 360 compete among themselves, and the Wii is way ahead of them in both sales AND games.

Thats not hard to believe....

Mr numbdick, How dare you respond to me in such a manner.

Nintendo found a gimmick and ran away with it. Shit can sell well, but it's still shit. So who cares about sales. If your games are shit. Suckers buy the Wii. Let's see them sell well and at the same time have games people actually wanna play.

Now I'm no Wii fan boy (I play more on my 360 btw) but bashing the Wii is pointless. Sure it has less good games then 360 and can't display them in as high a resolution either but it still has good games and that's why I have it. People need to get over the fact Wii doesn't do HD and start supporting good games on it so more of them are released.
The reason (in part) why there is SO much shit on there is cause many "core" gamers (they're not real gamers if graphics matter that much to them if you ask me) don't support developers/publishers when they release quality games. Show your Wii a little more love and it will be more like your 360.

Its not a cockroach. Its her first time see Wii graphics up close on a sdtv. Having been spoiled by lots of fine blu-ray and hd movies coming from a middle upper-class family, its scary to go back to standard definition graphics. Even more scary than seeing a cockroach beleive it or not.

I think this is a misleading statistic. The average age of gamers has risen to, what, 28 or so? I wonder how many 28 year olds have kids under the age of 12?

Adults who grew up gaming, probably continue to game, and are also willing to purchase games for their kids. The only thing I think this statistic does is defeat the stereotype that gamers don't get laid.

I learned something today, I always figured people were using the Tolkien definition of tween, being in their twenties. I suppose it makes alot more sense considering contexts I've been hearing it in...

I'm not sure these numbers really mean much of anything. As I move ever close to thirty, more of my friends and fellow gamers are having kids of their own. This hasn't stopped them from buying and playing new games. I hope that when I have kids and friends come over they don't assume I'm piling my amassed game horde on an infant. The survey should atleast include the households with kids under something like five as still in the adult gamer group. And really if you're not gaming with you kid sometimes I think that's a little irresponsible.
