I will be studying current adverts from Nintendo and try to keep Nintendo as a family friendly company but stamping the "For Everyone" message rather than family friendly = Kids. Other than various research into adverts and logo's I will also be looking and Nintendo's gaming libery and attempting to implement adult titles in there. Another important aspect of my studys is the public, I need to ask 3 types of people on Nintendo those 3 types are:
Average Joe
Casual Gamer
Hardcore Gamer
Once my research is complete I will naturally write my findings in an in depth post for my fellow Gameaday friends to read but you guys are the Hardcore gamers, and so I will ask you to fill in a small questionnaire, some questions may appear patronizing but be aware this is aimed at 3 different groups and I plan to find certain trends. Please be as honest as possible and here we go:
1: How old are you?
2: Would you brand Nintendo a:
Childrens company
Adult Company
For Everyone
3: When you think of Nintendo what game do you think of?
4: When you think of Nintendo what colour do you think of?
5: If you don't own one already would you consider buying a Nintendo Gamecube?
6: If not why?
7: If you don't own one already would you consider buying a Nintendo Gameboy Advance?
8: If not why?
9: Did you know that popular horror series Resident Evil is now exclusive to Nintendo Gamecube?
Thank you for your time.
Here's to the future.

> 2: Would you brand Nintendo a:
For Everyone - games which kids easily can get into, but still challenge adults.
> 3: When you think of Nintendo what game do you think of?
Mario. (Not my favourite franchise/character - he's just what you assossiate with Nintendo, especially if you were brought up in the Nes/Snes era. PS. Sega is likewise Sonic.)
> 4: When you think of Nintendo what colour do you think of?
Red - Mario/classic Nintendo logo
> 7: If you don't own one already would you consider buying a Nintendo
> Gameboy Advance?
I'm considering it...
> 9: Did you know that popular horror series Resident Evil is now
> exclusive to Nintendo Gamecube?
Yes. It means jack to Nintendo's image.
All it means that fans of the Resi Series will buy a Gamecube.
