Find that hard to believe. Anecdotal, but nearly all the kids I know have, or want, a Switch. Whereas I'm the only adult I know (excluding parents) that has one.

I work with kids for a living and while it's absolutely the case that a lot of them have a Switch or want one, most of my adult friends have one too.

As PAOerfulone so eloquently explained, multiple generations from the mid 80s to the present grew up with Nintendo and a substantial portion retained their love of its franchises as they grew up and became adults with their own disposable income and choice of system.

If we look at the gaming audience, those who are kids today only account for those born around 2003 onwards, whereas the adult demographic encompasses those born over a much longer span throughout the early 2000s, 90s, 80s, 70s, even in some cases the 60s and prior.
