Nintendo of America said that 80% of female gamers in the U.S. prefer Wii game console over other video game systems. The company claims that this is a result of purposeful effort to enlarge the video game market.

“This didn't happen by accident. It's the result of a deliberate attempt to expand the market,” said Reggie Fils-Aime, the president of Nintendo of America, at an event of BMO Capital Markets, reports Kotaku web-site.

Still, it is rather likely that simplistic casual games appeal to women more than high-end shooters or role-playing games on PS3 or X360.
