My retail job is going well. Quite happily, in fact.

But then, you can easily tell it's not a Wal-Mart company; we were encouraged to sign up for the union during our very first day of training.

Ni no Kuni: Puns and side quests the videogame.
Don't tell me this; it's just making it hurt even more that I can't play it until next year.

I think I read shedloads of Roald Dahl instead.

I never read any Dr. Seuss.

I think you just need to get out more.
I think I preferred it when I wasn't getting out at all.

I think you guys are arguing from a point that is relative for casual gamers and younger people (our generation) who would at least have a basic awareness of vidya while Vordus' argument points more towards everyone's grandma that got you that subscription to Nintendo Power last year because it had Mario on the cover, or that one concerned mother on Fox News that says VIDYAKILLS. That or his argument is that videogames are in a mystical, impenetrable veil where no filthy casuals my enter to learn the dark secrets of Our Lord Satan.
Something like that. We're a subculture of a subculture, very little of our medium reaches the conciousness of society as a whole. The man on the Clapham Ombibus will have never heard of Dante. Hell, I think I have gamer friends who have never heard of Dante.

You do realise that we're not the mainstream, right?

Also, Doom and Yoshi were a decade earlier (which is an entirely different metric), and Bioshock Sold 9 million between 2 games (but is still not mainstream).

Yeah see......I don't think that constitutes a "cult" status.
2 million sales per game is a niche.
