Ok what is this all about, well my good self is currently attempting to produce an advertisement campaign to help increase Nintendo's adult demographic. I will be contacting Nintendo on current adverts (weather or no they have anything to do with adult gaming), I will be contacting Sony and Microsoft on their seemingly successful campaigns aswell.

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 at 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.

btw, this wouldn't happen to be for a Business Studies coursework where you assess how successful a companies current marketing strategy is would it? Just that I had to do one last year (and had to do the Questionnaires over the Summer). Good luck with the research, school related or not! :D
