an adult can be also a little kid inside, thats something that can be understood by people after 25-26 (me thinks) better. Their range in gaming can be wider than a 12 year old.
I like technology when its moving forward..

Too bad Gamefaqs is PS3 bias or this could have been devastating to me,nice try though.

According to something from a long time ago (just my memory) I recall X360 at around 23, Ps3 at 27 and Wii at 35ish. I do not remember handhelds though. I can't find the link I'm looking for, sorry!

That is VGChartz LONGEST review. And it's NOT Cute Kitten DS
yeah, the average age for gamers has grown so much...
when i was a kid, video games were 100% a "kid's thing."
today, somehow, "kiddie" video games are shunned and derided by many so-called gamers.
i would hear my relatives say, back in those days, "you're a teenager now, you're still playing video games? grow up! you should be ashamed of yourself."
in fact that's how i felt for a long time... until the wii came along and i can play video games without this guilty feeling! since even my parents play them.
being most popular in the 11-18 age group means the 360 and ps3 will start being perceived as a toy--the exact opposite of the Wii which is starting to be viewed as a console for more mature adults.
oh the irony!
the Wii is an epidemic.
| Parokki said: 11-18 year olds prefer the PS3? Well yeah, that's the age when violence is at it's coolest, stuff perceived as "kiddy" is at it's worst, and brand loyalty matters the most. How old was the average gamer again these days, closer to thirty or something? |
Thats funny since the 360 would appeal to the the kiddies not the PS3 with games like GEOW and other shooters in the mix. The average adult gamer is a core consumer and would buy a PS3 or 360 before a Wii,the rest of the adults are buying them for their young children or to play with their young children.
that's still more than 25% buying MGS4, and with the maybe it's about than 33%.. 1 of each 3 people who voted.. soo.. it's not even bad..

I dont fully agree, but u got a point. Wii can become a console with games that dont really look like games...and understood better by older people
