Slightly relevant story time.

It's the morning of the Wii launch. Gamestop inside one of our local malls just opened that morning so half of our crew could get their systems (they couldn't do a midnight launch at the time, and the other half had theirs at the Best Buy across the street). Systems purchased, and we walk to the food court (literally a few steps away) to get a couple tables and look over our haul. Moments later, random dude comes up, wondering what the whole crowd was for.

Random dude: What's going on with this crowd?
Friend: It's for the Wii. New Nintendo system, just came out.
R: Nintendo? Y'all can't be playing those kiddie games.
F: But not everything on the system is for kids.
R: Then why they got the "E" rating on them? Y'all need to play some real man's games.
F: Hey, tell me something. You play Madden, right?
R: Oh hell yeah. Best game out there.
F: Well, Madden games are generally rated E. Does that mean they're for kids?

Dude walked away after that.

You know what's Nintendo's actual target demographic?

This thread's premise is inherently contentious and we're doing our best to prevent the fires of console warring from overtaking our community.
