Gaming - IGN hates Nintendo - View Post

HappySqurriel said:

Since its inception, the videogame industry has been focused on meeting the needs of videogame journalists and/or the gamers they represent. Nintendo realized that between "casual" gamers, lapsed gamers, adult non-gamers, and children the vast majority of gamers (and potential gamers) were not having their needs met and decided to focus on those gamers rather than the videogame journalists (and the gamers they represent). As a result of this, much like a teenager who has been spoiled and finally their parents say no to them, the videogame journalists have been throwing a tantrum like a 3 year old.

How can the vast majority of gamers be children when many surveys have shown the average gamer to be in their 30s? I will not look up years old news, but I have read this several times.
