My girlfriend is now hooked on gaming, when we got together she had a wii and we'd play mario kart. I picked up a wii u and we continued our mario karting.
But that was just the beginning, i had diablo3 on ps4 and figured it was simple enough to learn...within a a few hours she was totally hooked.
She's now finished witcher3 ( and all dlc ) and we've recently finished divinty original sin ( we've just started divinty 2 )...i have skyrim ready as a xmas gift so we will see how that goes.
I think the main thing about getting them into gaming is finding one game they enjoy and then building on that base. My girlfiend has already said she doesn't like shooters so i keep showing her rpgs and that's definitely her preferred genre.
