Little correction for the history section in the beginning of the video: electronics became viewed as a men's thing around the time the cold war started ramping up, operating those large clunky computers before were very much delegated to be women's jobs cus it was annoying to do but once it became cool with the space race they were shoved to the side. Consoles being in the electronics ail probably already indicated them as being a men's thing so it was a straightforward choice for nintendo to put their consoles in the boy's toy ail. I'm not sure if it's nintendo's claim they picked the boy's ail randomly, but even then I kinda doubt it was random. Also HOLY SHIT the dev team behind girls only is hungarian, that was a jumpscare for me.

Late comment is late, but from what I read about that time and Nintendo's decision-making it came down to the US Game Crash- they knew they needed to make it BIG in order to break free from the US audience's perceptions of games as trash. And at the time Good Business Science was that you HAD to pick a demographic to aim yourself at, Manly He-Man BoyToys and Pink Silky TeeHee Girl Toys were selling GANGBUSTERS at the time, in numbers greater than previous decades more gender-neutral "unisex" style For The Whole Family were selling. Now, whether this was because Gendered Commercials were some kind of arcane magic that unlocked vast scores of revenue OR because of that whole, you know, loosening of the telecomunnications standards by Reagan allowing cartoons that were basically toy commericals beaming the desire for toys into kids brains and generally much more rampant consumerism following the humdrum US 70's... we shall simply leave that question to the more learned among us. But the style at the time was that you had to pick a side in order to create a hit, and perhaps because tech was seen as a Man's Business as you say... Nintendo went for the boy aisle. And the rest is unfortunate history...
@MattMcIrvin2 ай бұрын
One of the things that pushed girls out of computer science in the 1980s was that people started assuming you needed to come into the college curriculum as a "whiz kid" with home programming experience, and home computers had been marketed heavily to boys as jumped-up game machines. So there was weird gender stuff happening in the biz already at that point.

There's a lot of Japanese games that were aimed at girls, like otome games (games about dating cute guys). Some otome games had more RPG type elements, or more complicated gameplay elements than you'd see in, say, Cooking Mama. You can see that DNA in stuff like Fire Emblem Three Houses, which shares a lot of staff with those (including the lead artist/character designer) and also has a lot of hot guys you can date and a female protagonist option.

Intial Story of Seasons games were gendered male. The bit about the gap on pricing for the blue baby game instead of the pink one reminded me of of how for a couple SoS games between the intial generation of male-only and the chosing-a-gender generation there was the regular-harvest moon where you can only play as a male and cute-harvest moon, where you can only play as a female. I remember loving one of the games from the cute genre and when replaying it when i was slightly older found out that they also *technically* added gay marriage via the "Best Friends" route that existed in the origonal Japanese release. idr if it was only with the witch bachelorette but I think it was. That ir she would do the ceremony evem when shes the "best friend". "Best Friends" could also have childern i think, that or it was easily hackable or im just thinking to hard without looking it up again

To add to the background into pre-85, there wasn't a reliable means of determining of game quality at that time (the box art not helping matters). The second point (a point Gaming Historian debunked right on this very site), the dump of Atari assets was because manufacturing duties for Atari was moved to Taiwan from the Texas facility. New Mexico was chosen as that state's laws would criminally prosecute landfill pickers. I know some simplification had to occur to focus on the main point of the video, but I couldn't let the "ET cartridge dump" story perpetuate. Seems like the same lack of investigation many media outlets (especially the listacle types) pursue.

Nice to see a retrospective on the peak of girl-targeted shovelware. I had a long period (basically, from the later DS Lite variants through to 2021) when I mostly fell out of following videogame news, but since buying a secondhand Switch and rediscovering this world, it's been encouraging to see so much change. Today's parents of every gender grew up gaming, and they remember what franchises they stuck with and what got old fast. I love the thought of mums today introducing their daughters to Tomb Raider and Metroid Prime and being like, "Yeah, this is why I'm Like This..." and the daughters perhaps not even understanding why those female action heroes were such a huge deal to us. I think money comes into it too - if you grew up heavily into games then you know it makes more sense to slap down £50 for something with a bit of longevity that your kid won't get bored with after a week. Our parents mostly didn't have that insider knowledge - they were guided by what we begged for, or by the media demonising violent and gory games in relation to school shootings etc., and I think that context particularly explains all those "Imagine a Traditional Woman's Career!" things - it's what you buy if you know nothing about games except that they're "dangerous," yet your eight-year-old is desperate for a DS...

22:46 I mean while in reality most games can be enjoyed by most people, you also have to consider the devs of the time, now I am not saying thought "Oh, this game? FOR BOYS ONLY, NO GURLS ALLOWED" but they were skewing towards the concept of boys (of the time) because of multiple reasons, one being that they would have been making a game they would have wanted to play as children and that means they had a mostly ""boy intent"" and if you asked, idk, any ""normal game'" dev team: is this a boys game or a girls game? they would have (probably) said: oh this is generally a boy-ish game. be that because they knew how their audience skewed (except in house Nintendo games, they made games for children) or because they themselves with the comprehension of girls of a 2006 nerd couldn't see them playing and having a good time with it, so, in the end, we have 2 genders that games cater towards at this time, girls and "normal" which encompasses everything else, you know kinda like that one unaware child that says something like "these are my friends he's Mexican, he's asian and I am -normal- " and it's like "ooh nooo" But I do think that's in part because most girl geared games were almost guessing what fun constitutes for girls and or were done sloppily so they ended up feeling like that cheapo tablet you buy for your grandparent that's lagging after 2 weeks of use and you have to go "fixing" their tablet, this is, of course, generalization cooking mama was good, the project diva games are bangers, I still play them and I know people that had fun playing some of the barbie games. if they were all mostly decent the girl-"normal" divide would still be there to some degree because we live in the type of society that we live in but the words "girl's game" would not be tied to "ah yes, mostly bad games for little girls" and there would be many many more games like cooking mama where the first thing you think about them is not "girl game" in the same way "boy game" isn't the first thing that comes into my mind when someone says tony hawk pro skater 4

At some point, computers and technology became a "boy" thing. It happened a little before my time, I wasn't born until 1981, but there was a lot of misogyny in the culture about "Women can't do math and science, they're too dumb for that! They're only good for makin' babies and cooking and cleaning!" (Including the infamous "Talking Barbie" that whined the ill-fated voice line "Math is haaard!") Nintendo wasn't marketing it as a "Video Game" system, that might've still managed to be "a whole family thing" at the time. They marketed it as "Look at this cool robot! It comes with this box you need to make the robot do stuff. Don't worry about it, it's not important, just get it into your home now." And robots were ABSOLUTELY "Boy Things". So of course it went on the boy side. After that, well, video games were computer stuff, which was boy stuff, and they'd always been boy stuff before so they weren't gonna break that any time soon. The fact that "Badass hero shoots a bunch of faceless enemies and makes stuff blow up" was the easiest type of game to really make, well, of course they just kept that feedback loop going. They ended up not just "boy things", but "YOUNG boy things", and it took a long time to really get main-stream acceptance for video games beyond the ages of around 14. You were expected to become "more mature and stop playing with those toys" until around the time of the Wii/DS. XBox was a "gray area", young adult/college age guys could get away with liking that, because it was all guns and military shooters and Halo and racing games and GTA. But even then, it was considered "You can play around with it in college, but you'll rot your brain and be a loser if you still do it outside a dorm room." ...And then there's me, a trans girl who didn't care what gender stuff was supposed to be for. I was absolutely hooked on all things video game and computer related my entire life. Still am. ^_^

Spyro was the reason I saved money and bought a playstation and I consider it my first real gaming experience outside of Invaders on a arcade console. I dunno what "gender" choosing Spyro is, but that game was my absolute jam. Bought the remake by toys for Bob years later. Had no idea how loved the trilogy was at the time or how well known of a game it really was. I just saw "OMG, I can be dragon? OMG portals that take me to different environments? Bangin' music?

I would like to say that the Imagine series did have some good games... and that's because those games were actually localised versions of Japanese girly games that were given the Imagine branding, some of them even having slight dating sim elements. They also looked a lot better compared to the "original" Imagine games but imo the anime style graphics just look so much better. These specific games are: Figure Skater Ice Champions Ballet Star Makeup Artist (Also known as Cosmetic Paradise)

I really enjoyed this niche subject & the deep dive into shovelware that's only gone up in value since Nintendo has signaled clearly that they don't care about video game preservation. Really interesting to see so many "girl games" be so expensive now since most tiles have never been rereleased on newer systems. The 3ds port of an old Barbie game for the Wii is now the most expensive 3ds game on the market for example. Also what's that about Funko burying $30 Mil in vinyl figures in a landfill? Where's that landfill? If they don't want them I'll buy some.

I remember having so much shovelware for the Wii as a kid (a ton of it girly). Playing Doom for the first time as a 10 year old was like having an epiphany.

6:25 Batman's soundtrack slaps...I think lol I've not listened to it as much as Blaster Master, Journey to Silius, or Gimmick but man the OST for all of these games are so good, that most of them have a completely different bass sound (only other NES game I can think of that does this is Kirby's Adventure)

I am surprised the Style Savvy series is not mentioned. There ARE good girly games between all the shovelware. You just need to dig very big deep. 😂

I’ve always been curious about a proper investigation into a lot of the “Imagine” series games and especially the “Petz” series games as a subset of shovelware mostly for little girls and babies that is comprised mostly of both low effort titles and disguised localizations of completely different and especially varied Japanese life sim titles. I think it’s interesting how in this era the only way to pump out so many generically branded games under a unified title was to take lots of games from Japan and wash out their entire identity to fit the mold publishers like Ubisoft wanted out of them.

Preston is so expressive. I love how terrible he looked like he felt looking at Girlz Racing or whatever it was called

im so glad most of my games as a kid were just passed down snes games from my mom and dad. their obsession with mario, mortal kombat, and street fighter gave me life (but i still played girly games on the internet)

8:40 Fun fact: that isn't some fanmade AI upscale, that is just how the current official ""remaster"" of the Simpsons looks on TV and streaming (though you can disable the cropping on Disney+), which I think says a LOT how people can easily mistake it for a rushed AI upscale!

All games are girl games or boy games except for Tetris, which is non-binary

Seeing this, I did not expect an appearance from Action Girlz Racing. I guess Im not the only transfem who decided to play the game in 2023 for the sake of playing gendered games. I played it with my little cousin, who is a boy, and we had fun just due to how terrible it was.
