More context on which platforms they game on would be nice. I don't see that.



I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime. 

The NX will be a 900p machine

Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Two words, Candy Crush.



Don't copy random editorials.

What are they playing? Candy Crush is my bet.



Of course, the main thing that can be drawn from this is that stereotypes should be breaking fast within the industry. The population of female gamers has grown considerably in the last year alone and according to the study, the average adult female has been playing for thirteen years. So why is it that so many women who play games still feel like the minority?

Because they are the minority on PC and consoles, which is what a lot of people - including the author - mean when they talk about "gaming".

Playing mobile games a couple minutes a day does not compare to playing games like Uncharted or The Witcher.

I just don't see even close to half the people who go to the local gaming store being women.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Yes, you've given Waluigi far more protagonism than Nintendo in their whole career.



I'd rather take this woman's word over the opinions of that article's author. At least this woman's video is much more researched. This also comes from a feminist.
