The target audience, as was presented to me, was both people who have never picked up a Pokemon game and people who have been playing since the start. There's a reason Nintendo calls it an expanded audience. I for one came into the games as an adult. Many people who enjoy the series are adults. Many parents play with their children. The target audience isn't just little kids.

I really don't like people acting as if as if I'm only a mature gamer if I play things rated T or M. I don't like most of those games--a lot of them are FPS which make me nauseated. Why should I be looked down upon for liking "kiddy" games--or anything really--that's fun for me?

What's the saying? "When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." ~ C. S. Lewis.

Typo edit.

well okay, that's how you've seen it presented, i've always seen the opposite. i've been playing since blue & red came out too, i still play it, i know tons of people who played the first ones still play it as adults, but i still see mostly young kids playing it sooooo
& all the ads at my local game stores have it targeted towards kids... i'm probably wrong, i'm sorry if i made you upset.

also i never implied anything about what makes a mature gamer??? please don't put words in my mouth. i don't care what other people play, what they enjoy is what they enjoy right?

[kittikattie.livejournal.com]

I wasn't snapping at you personally about mature gaming, so please slow your roll. I was putting it out in the air that it pisses me off that so much of "mature" gaming consists of shit I don't like.

[(Anonymous)]

it just seemed like it was something i said that made you go into the mature gamer thing, just kinda came out of nowhere. my bad

[teahound.livejournal.com]

I thought this one was at least a bit more geared towards older kids; they even made the MCs older.

Not to mention this (actual screengrabs from the game).

[(Anonymous)]

holy shit i havent got that far yet. is that for real???
i knew about how they made the mcs older, and the plot seems more serious than the older ones, so yeah i definitely agree with you on the older kids thing.

[teahound.livejournal.com]

I haven't played far enough to know if the translators realized what a TERRIBLE idea putting that in there would be and changed it, but that's the literal translation. (Meaning that's def. what the Japanese says, too.)

But yeah, I don't think Pokemon was ever for older OR younger kids - I always thought it was nicely neutral about it's 'intended audience'. =)

[deciphre.livejournal.com]

Holy shit, lol.
I must see this in game. MUST.

Re: +2

[rachelled.livejournal.com]

It's almost worth a restart as a boy for me, JUST to see it. XD;

Re: +2

[deciphre.livejournal.com]

Yesss, lmfao.

Being a prostitute is bad enough, but a sixteen year old boy...

Re: +2

[rachelled.livejournal.com]

At least it's not as bad as it has been... weren't the kids in the older games supposed to be like 10? 8'D

Re: +2

[deciphre.livejournal.com]

Haha, yes. xD
... It doesn't really help that Black looks a lot like Red. Fake ID?

[knuddeluff.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I've seen a lot of older people (even people in their late 20s) get into it. I think we'd consider this series more of a family friendly, like Doctor Who--
