15-30 year old males? It certainly appeals to little kids. Brawl was not made to mostly appeal to hardcore gamers, it was made to appeal to everyone. It has a large section of Nintendo characters, easy to use control, and mini-games so casuals should eat it up.

 

Yeah, but that isn't what happened. I just looked at Europe Nintendo channel, and that seems to agree with me.

I'm not saying that other people can't play it, but those are the main audience. Heck, I myself am not in the area I myself pointed out, but I still love the game.

And little kids? It's rated 13+, and I believe that (at least in Europe) many parents are very careful about letting their children play overaged games (I disagree with them, but it's the situation).

 

The people I know personally in America that like the game are a 23 year old female and 3 kids under 15.  Non of the 15-30 year olds that I know who love Mario Kart like SSBB.  One even claims it is a kiddie only game and makes fun of me for playing it.  Maybe the reason the game has far better sales in America than Europe is because it appeals to a larger user base in America (including kids).

 

 

Anadoctal data doesn't really help in this case. I know 3 other people who own a Wii, while I know ~ 20 with a Ps3 and ~ 15 with a 360. Does this mean that's how the hardware is in Norway?
