Yeah, every guy knows they exist but are incredibly rare and elusive right? Like one in a million or something, it's hardly like there's more female gamers than male gamers right... not yet anyway.

Well apparently in Japan, yes there is... sort of. To quote the article "In Japan, the DS has a 53 percent female user base, while the Wii has a 51 percent". Well, the only word to sum that up is "wow". Nintendo have clearly done an excellent job appealing to a wider audience. Of course that's only for Nintendo's products but hey, it shocked me none the less Cheeky

It's been interesting over the years to see computer/console games go from the realm of the geek to the masses much in the same way computers and the internet have. I'm guessing later on down the line no one will frown upon me for being an adult and buying a console Grining
