Game journalists always seem to forget
this. Try as they might to convince me that gamers are hip 19-24 year olds, I know the truth; we are mostly older, married, and have young children. When I made the jump into the current gen consoles I didn't just buy it for me. More than anything I wanted to get a system that I could play with my kids, because I knew they would see me playing it. The opposite is true for my handheld. I can get away with playing games like 999 because they aren't as likely to see me playing it before bed, on break at work, or on the toilet(you know you all do it). I have an ipod touch, an android phone, and a ds lite. The gaming is so much deeper on my lite than anything either of the others have brought to me.
Thanks for saying what we all were thinking Nathan.
