The new data also reveals that 45% of Xbox owners and 41% of PS5 owners are female, too

This really shouldn’t be news and it certainly shouldn’t be surprising to anyone, but yes, new data from Circana shows that—as we told you in 2017—women play video games. In fact, more than half of all Switch owners are women. And a very vocal bunch of idiots are reacting about as well as you’d expect to this “revelation.”

    Why are people so stuck in the 1950s?

    Glad to have woman playing. To paraphrase Iwata (Nintendo), gaming should be fun for everyone

    Edit: “women” because I have butter fingers

      My girlfriend has ~800 hours in Lost Ark and ~500 hours in Guild Wars 2.

      She always nags me about not finding her new games. I am glad we are compatible in more than one thing.

        Try No Man’s Sky, it brought countless fun hours to my SO and I. Same for Satisfactory.
