| woopah said: well judging from that advert PSP is clearly meant for cool people who go to massive parties, socialise with hot chicks then sleep with them. DSi is for people who want to play shantae also as i side note, that advert showed a ton of rich 20 somethings at a huge party at a huge house with a huge pool. i always see them on TV but do those things actually exist? |
Some regular high life and gilded youth stereotypes, those things are relevant when promoting to under 20 wannabes.
Regarding DSi, I guess people are underestimating potential of supercheap downloadable games (look at iPhone, though I bet DSiWare won't overcome it by total games available and really cheap prices... it's a dedicated gaming device after all and prices are fixed, so no price wars). Moreover if I got it right from japanese DSi commercials, those seemingly media features (photos, sound editor) are to be used in games\entertainment software a-la purikura (kids and teen girls love it) and various edutainment (mostly for foreign language practice) - those're pretty big markets.
