I don't think it has anything to do with Nintendo. It's a perception thing in America. Animated movies are also said to be kiddy, but I find most of the better ones to have so many adult easter egg jokes that go way above children's heads. I can find more adult themes in The Incredibles than in Saw, but a teenager will naturally assume Saw to be the more adult movie. It's rated R and The Incredibles is rated PG. Nintendo does not develop M rated games, and to teenagers, adult games start at T and rise to M. It's how they perceive maturity before they've actually acquired it. The more taboo it is for them, the more mature it must be; sex, alcohol, drugs, R rated movies, M rated games, porn, etc., etc. Don't take it personally. You'll tend to notice that as gamers get older they tend to gravitate back to Nintendo. The average age of DS users was like 53 I believe, which is older than any other console or handheld.

 That was pretty much an epic win.
