That's easy: they flock to Nintendo because Nintendo doesn't ignore them.
Nintendo doesn't need to attract more women and seniors. If these really are the stats -roughly reflective of the populace in general- then Nintendo has finally reached a truly healthy market: gaming is once again for everyone.
Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
