Judging a Wii Game by Its Cover: The Decisions of a 7 Year Old Girl

Milawe writes: "I took my daughter to Best Buy the other day and told her to pick ten Nintendo Wii games that she might want to play. The experiment itself was a tiny bit cruel since I had no intentions of purchasing anywhere near ten video games for her, but now I know what she wants for the holiday season and special occasions.

You might wonder what a 7 year old girl thinks is great about the Nintendo Wii. You can read an interview with my daughter to find out. But for the purposes of this article, we are focusing on just the games."

I love stories like this. They are so different from the same-old-same-old stuff you read all the time. A unique perspective on what works and what doesn't is refreshing.

Interesting. She seems to have more taste than most 7 year old girls who just want Petz and Hannah Montana. Rock on.

Agreed. Good upbringing!

And the lack of interest in movie themed games is refreshing.

Good observation.

It is definitely nice to see that some of the marketroid tricks are not as effective as they think they are.
