No worries Ronner

An Average video gamer is 35 years old, 1/3 of US households own a console

A new industry report released by IBISWorld, reveals women and older adults -- not the proverbial nerdy teenage boys -- are the new driving force behind the success of the video games industry as console manufacturers and software developers race to expand their offerings beyond the traditional action genre which has always appealed to youngsters. According to the report: *38 percent of U.S. gamers are women and the average player is 35 years old, *The average purchaser of video games is 39 years old, *24 percent of game players are aged over 50, *around a third of American households have a gaming console.

I was never worried about pretentious teens who are under the impression that I should rot away on a couch watching tv next to my spouse after having put the kids to bed earlier.

eron's dad (brutal) is still playing ET, think he's around 38-40 now if I'm right.
*The average purchaser of video games is 39 years old*

parents buying 18+ games for their 12 yr old kids?

Parent
12 year old kids download their games and adults buy their games is my logical explanation.
