That's...good.
...I think. Is it? I'm not really sure.. Is ANYONE sure if this is good or horrible? Who wants to get pwned by grandpaw in Halo then have him yell profanities at you while teabagging you in-game?

I think it's a stretch to think that someone who gets into gaming through something like Brain Age or Wii Fit will find a home within the ranks of Halo players. It'll happen in some cases, sure, and it's going to "expand" the market in terms of who plays videogames (if you're going to lump games like Brain Age in with something like Super Mario Bros).
Whatever the case really is, whether it's going to be "good" or "bad" for gamers like ourselves, one thing is certain: Nintendo are freakin' brilliant.

It was more of a joke then anything xD. But ya it COULD happen. Though I also doubt it will happen in many cases.

Us seasoned gamers are still gonna get games. Think of it this way. The more Nintendo grow the market and take that casual gamers money, that's just more money going to them, to create more games for everyone.
This is indeed a clever move by Nintendo. Target the milfs and soccer milf mums.

Why is Nintendo pushing Brain Age so hard? Big Brain Academy would be a much better choice. Brain Age is very nonthreatening, sure, but it's so much of a non-game that I can't see any crossover potential. Big Brain Academy, on the other hand, is much more of a game while dealing with the same subject manner in a fun, casual way. I could see some people enjoying that game and slowly slipping into the mainstream gaming market through that gateway drug.
Nintendo is pushing games like Wii Fit and Brain Age is because its direct response to anti-gamer crusaders like Thompson who says there's no good that can come of games. I've played Brain Age, and it does help, in today's busy lives for many of us we don't have that much time to sit down with a paper and do the jumble or the sudoku. What's wrong with having an affordable game that can actually serve to jog our mathematic parts of our brains that some of us don't use as much as we should?
