Why many women don’t play games?

Friday, May 15th, 2009

I came across a post on Torill Mortensen’s blog with a youtube comedy ad for a women’s version of Wii, called Shii. The video was funny, so I figured I’d share it here:

The ad does hit a nerve, because some of the games shown pretty much exist already. There are plenty of games for the Nintendo DS targetted at girls where you cook and do other ‘girly’ things. I haven’t actually tried any of them, but they do seem to be a bit popular (though I have a bad feeling they’ve got to be boring).
