ARCADE GAMES-WHO'S PLAYING THEM?

When you think of Arcade Games, a picture of young
children around the ages of 8 and up comes to my mind.
Does it yours? Well, you're in for a surprise. How about a
35 year old woman? A 60 year old woman?

According to RealArcade, who is a leader in the Online
Internet Arcade games, the demographic for their
website are women from the age of 35 to the age of 60.
They claim that 70% of their online players are in this
group age category. It is difficult to bring the image to
my mind of a 60 year old woman blasting away at a lineup
of army tanks, and shooting down as many of them as she
can within a certain limit of time.

Out of curiosity, I went into their site and they have a lot
more than just "shoot 'em up" games. As a Senior Citizen
myself, I soon found myself playing some of the games
and enjoying them immensely. Maybe it isn't so outrageous
after all. I actually enjoyed some of the "shoot-'em-up games,
as well. They have all kinds of puzzling puzzler games and
awesome action games. You also get a free present of a choice
of two games in return for joining their 30 day-free trial. I
think I'm going to sign up. Have I just become a statistic in
the demographic of arcade games?

Talk about puzzling; I'm still agog over the demographic of
woman between the ages of 35 and 60 being the dominant
factor in the world of Arcade games. You'll find a RealArcade
website at
