Even better the second time through! Nice work man.
I can definitely see your daughter with a pink D.S. in her hands...lol.

But seriously I completely agree with your argument. Could, just a few years from today the best selling game be Cooking Mama? Well the way the Wii is selling it could certainly be dreamed. When looking at the success of games like Guitar Hero, it is obvious that there is a market for interactive games.
However I get a shiver down my spine when I think that these games may dominate the gaming market. Ultimately I don't think it will come to that, but there always is that chance...

I'll close with your words:

"Don't get me wrong; I think it's cute that someone who likely had no idea what a video game was would suddenly plunk down her Social Security money so she can cook virtual meals, play a rousing game of table tennis and shark her little grandchildren out of their milk money in billiards."

LOL Great writing man!
