Forums - Gaming - Children love the Nintendo Wii

Children love the Nintendo Wii! This is demonstrated by a study of U.S. children between 6 and 12 years. A total of 4700 boys and girls questioned what their favorite brands and products. The final report shows that the Wii is hence 1. The Nintendo DS takes a nice second place while the PlayStation is also good place to break with 14. The Xbox is at position 42 and is not reflected in the top 25 below.

Kids have good taste. There's a lot of brands I like there also. If I saw the adults list, I'd probably disagree with far more on it.



Tag: Became a freaking mod and a complete douche, coincidentally, at the same time.



I loved this list. It was like taking a nostalgia trip into my memories!





Then I saw Cartoon Network and it went downhill again.



This is the true definition of owning.

Isn't the Wii and DS from the same brand?

Here's an old article, from back in 2005, pretty much saying the same thing:

Nintendo brand scores among kids

Survey nets keepers of Mario and Mickey top slots in brand awareness race among young kids, teens.

When asked to finger the "coolest" brands, children ages 8 to 12 ranked Nintendo first, followed by Disney, McDonald's, Nike, and Hummer, researchers Decision Analyst and Hypothesis said in a recent statement outlining their "Hot or Not?" survey. As the survey pool switched to older consumers, ages 13 to 17, Nintendo slipped to the fifth slot behind (in order from number one) Nike, Hummer, Abercrombie, and Sony. Those that owned the bottom of the coolest-brand lineups were Toyota, Volkswagen, Levi's, Dell, Ford, and Starbucks for the younger group, while Ford, Levi's, Burger King, Volkswagen, and Toyota owned the cellar for the 13- to 17-year-old age group. The survey was conducted in May 2005, and tapped the opinions of 670 children and teens between the ages of 8 and 17.

Hummer? What the hell? =P

Those are the ugliest most heavily polluting vehicles on the planet. Is this what the US media teaches children? No wonder the US has such a big pollution problem.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
