No doubt that games are art, but I don't know if tossing a bunch of old games in a room constitutes being called an exhibit either. If you were to stick the same games in an empty retail space in a mall somewhere, it would be called an arcade, not a museum or an art gallery. Regardless, parents should rejoice, because now they have a place to leave their kids while they are visiting the Natural History museum next store:)
The study that they got the “40% of gamers are women,” from also included mobile games. It would be nice to believe, but playing Candy Crush on your phone, doesn’t make you a gamer.
As a longtime and passionate gamer, I love it when the mainstream media covers the industry like this!
