Why would you assume that the main person using the console would be inputting the NNID?

Also, it has to be NNID, because there's no other way to get gender.

My objection would be assuming that people filling out the NNID are the users.


...not sure why you would assume otherwise. There is no benefit to putting anyone but the user as the owner of the NNID, especially if you are a parent planning on setting parental controls. Honestly, I can't imagine anything but an insignificant skew from someone who isn't the user inputting NNID data.

Hit up youtube and check out the people running nintendo specific gaming channels, report back with the average age of said user.

That's called selective data.

If I wanted to find the average age of people who liked looking at naked ladies would I go to a strip club and poll the people there?

strip clubs have an age limit, youtube doesnt.



I guess it just goes to show that Game review scores are almost completely irrelevant in terms of how successful a games' sales can be. The Order 1886 will probably outsell most Wii U games.

Like what?

Not asking to be a dick, actually curious since I don't pay much attention to the Wii U. My gf has one so wouldn't hurt to know.

After reading through pretty much 80% of the posts here, I think that using the word "quality" is just creating more problems. "Quality," to me, is more of an objective term. However, many people are using the term very subjectively, and I don't really think there's a very objective way to talk about games in the first place.

What genre of games are you into out of curiosity?
