Someone who will whine to their parents to plop down the $500, and have dumb enough parents to say ok. I think this is probably the market most companies in the world are going for these days. It's the largest growing demographic in America today. That and idiots. I guess they're sort of synonymous.
they are going after the same market that 3DO, Neo Geo and CD I went after.......the 15 minutes of video game infamy crowd. screw them, no true gamer would be caught virile with one of those systems :)

But Neo Geo systems are awesome. Absurdly expensive, but awesome none the less. If I was a millionare, trust me, I'd own a Neo Geo AES and Neo Geo CD system. Actually, I do own a Neo Geo Pocket Color. I knew it was going to fail as soon as it was released, but there were alot of great games released for the system before it died.

Speaking of... do you guys remember Turbo Grafix? Remember Bonk and Bonk's Revenge? Those were the days.
