I should point out: Stomping someone to death in Mario is violent, it may not be realistic, but any game that presents the solution to the problem in the elimination of enemies is violent. To someone young enough without proper parenting, this can instill the belief that its easier to solve your problems by removing/defeating the obstacle. Compare this to a game like Sim City where the point of the game is to solve problems by building, or puzzle games like Tetris. ( I would however put MarioKart on the same scale as hockey and football, a physical sport... but still a sport, and I cannot comment on Animal Crossing. ) People seem to think that realistic violence incites violence, but all it really takes is for something/anything to instill the belief that hurting/killing others is how to achieve your goals.

@Cabanela, Back in the days of IRC, it used to be common for 40 year old men to pretend they were girls to get attention or to lure young boys into giving their addresses away. So I do at least find it distasteful for a/s/l to be revealed or asked when its not relevant. Bear in mind I mostly play games that lack voice chat, so it still could be a 40 year old man behind that keyboard.

Damn, ah well. I saw mention of a store on the instagram link.

@Damo
I've always been surprised when a girl like her gets harassed, you would think that considering many women hate male gamers, you should be nice to one that actually plays. Maybe she's not into you, but if you're a gentleman, perhaps she'll introduce you to a friend. And besides what's more important is convincing/pleading with her to help beat Sonic Racing in hard mode (Priorities people).

Can't find a link to her actual bead store (does she have one right?)
Would love one of Azel (Panzer Dragoon Saga), or the Langrisser cast.

Usually platform means the OS/APIs that Games/Software are built on. So in this case it would be something like Virtual Console, DSiWare - not another physical device.
