Did they get it from actual statistics or just a poll? It's not like it's unbelievable, but it'd only be relevant from actual data gathering. I don't really have much faith in polls of 1000 people being overly demonstrative of the entire population of the world.

Probably got the PS1 data from a poll but the PS4/5 info from PSN accounts.

Would be cool if Gamespot had more info.

When you want your plug pulled do you yell Mom or Dad?

Only 18% of the PS1 user base was made up of women. Pretty neat.

That was back when it only played games >_>

And 18% back then seems high.

Yeah, hard to believe that roughly 50 million women own PS4/PS5. But I dunno, my only basis is personal anecdotal evidence where very few women game on console.

I don't think your gender is publicly advertised on your PSN profile so it would be pointless to lie about it.

How do they track ownership? Wouldn't surprise me if a bunch of moms are buying a PS for their son in which case the mom doesn't really own it.

They probably don't, it was most likely an estimate. That said, I wouldn't doubt it if it is fairly close to the actual numbers. Video games were WAY less popular with women back in the 90s.

Just pulling out random numbers from my backside, but I'm gonna bet about half of that is just moms buying & setting up their sons with PSN.

I don't understand why the 40% number is so hard to believe. I know plenty of women who play video games. Actual games, not Skinner box shit masquerading as games.

there's definitely more gamer women these days, hell in my last shift a couple of coworkers (early 20s year old girls) were having an argument/conversation with each other about how one of the girls spent like 90 dollars on a "rose gold" ps4 controller for the other girl (or something along those lines). i have a supervisor who's 33 who mentioned once that she used to love OoT when she was younger, i believe she also mentioned something about final fantasy as well. i know another woman was talking to another coworker about God of War and Spiderman a couple of times when those games were released. and while this person doesn't consider herself as a gamer, i know she once went like "OMG Mario" when we walked past a Mario poster and mentioned how she loved a certain Mario game on the N64 but she didn't know what it was called since it was her brother's console and game. That was the only game she ever loved according to her. lol
