I agree with Sega, Nintendo needs to start making a few mature games. I know Nintendo likes their family friendly image but they are never going to get 13-18 year old males buying their consoles if they have no hardcore/mature (whatever you want to call it) games. This is actually one of the two things keeping me from buying a Wii (the other being my budget). |
Hate to break it to you, but have you looked at the sales of consoles? Plenty of '13-18 year old males' are buying a Wii. And not just looking for 'mature rated content'. Looking for games from a variety of fields, from Mario and Zelda to Metroid and Smash Bros and even Mario Kart and Pikmin.
Spend some time on this site and you'll even see how many 'hardcore HD console gamers' have one or two major Wii games they're highly anticipating.

and you know that how?

Deductive reasoning? The Wii couldn't get to the #1 spot simply by selling to 'grannies and kids'. Especially when a lot of younger kids (between the ages of 10-14) are running out to buy XBOX360 and PS3.
Also, the fact that all three of the major console producers each year have put up demographic charts of who is buying their consoles. And all of them agree, Wii is winning because people in all markets are buying a Wii. Sometimes as just a secondary console to an HD console. But if one person buys a PS3 and another person buys a 360...but they both buy a Wii on the side, the Wii wins out.
