Did they actually think that to attract more women to the console, they'd do it by creating an online "etsy" store for virtual goods so women could sell digital trash in service of a largely male audience?
And then throw in the kicker by saying oh, Velocity Girl doesn't want all the SERIOUS GAMER stuff, so we gave her Bejeweled 2 and backgammon.
Did anyone used to play this? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infantry_(video_game) it was a SOE game that me and my friends played A LOT, seeing Jeff talk about the station pass stuff reminded me of the time Station Pass came out and Infantry went behind a paywall.
This was devastating at the time and pretty much killed it for us as no one could afford to pay the monthly fee - we were kids!
But the trash box full of game manuals was a complete joke, personally if I was Jeff I'd stop these mailbag videos to discourage people from sending them stuff like that. What do people expect them to do with a box full of game manuals? Every single mailbag there's some box of garbage that someone decided to send them "after a clear out"
