People over the age of 75 play DS, I'de say the average age is way over 20, just button it with the child demographic.

Why can't 8-9 year olds play with 3D? It's to difficult for them?
I can imagine dozens of game concepts that would work perfectly with that demographic.

Did I miss something or what!?

Cheebee said: PEOPLE! Let's stop derailing the thread. Everyone and their grandma knows DS appeals to a wide demographic, probably the widest ever across all videogame related machines. And definitely to a much, much wider audience than, say, PSP, for example. If one or several individuals don't want to hear that, so be it. Too bad for them, but let's stop trying to convince them with endless arguments, because we all know it's no use talking to brick walls. Let's all just move on.

But someone is WRONG on the IN-

...

Fine, fine....

I'm off to fantasize about layered investigative scenes and 3-D displays in Ace Attorney, I guess....

You have already been taken to task for this, but it seems you have no understanding of statistics.  For a sample size that large, error is about ± 2%.

Different region - so?

Larger poll - actually, the percentage of americans surveyed is less here than % of Japan surveyed

More specific - it isn't more specific!

"For the majority of surveys, the sample size is between 200 and 2000. A sample below 200 is useful only if you have a very low budget, and little or no information on what proportion of the population engages in the activity of most interest to you — or if the entire population is not much larger than that. A sample size over 2000 is probably a waste of time and money, unless there are subgroups of the population, which must be studied in detail."

"Consider this question: if a survey in a town with 10,000 people needs a sample of 400 for a given level of accuracy, what sample size would you need for the same level of accuracy in the whole country, with a population of 10,000,000? (That's 1000 times the population of the town.)

Did you guess 400,000? Many people do. The correct answer is 400.4 - you might as well call it 400."

Thank you, and goodnight.

am I the only one who fails to see why being 9 instead of 19 has an effect or you ability to enjoy 3D?

i would if people stopped making me look retarted with thier posts..i mean cmon "grasping at straws" ...i really hate it when someone calls someone else an idiot when that idiot is just trying to back up thier reasoning..

Isn't funny how a thread could move so quickly based on 2 graphs of something that almost everybody know?

Now the Euro one...
