Hey guys please assist me with a homework

[naeomiee]

Hello guys,

I have marketing research homework and would really appreciate your input.

Questions:
1. When a user takes out their portable gaming console, besides playing in places like cafes which in enclosed, does the user also play in other public places such as the bus, park, etc?
2. If the user answers affirmatively to the question above, do they always find a place to sit down, or do they just stand and play with the console?
3. Do users usually go out with their headphones and/or airpods?

I used to play 3DS on NYC subway train going to work and coming back from work, I would find a place to sit down and play, I don't see people playing at cafe though.

I wish a had a homework like that in school.
1. I like playing in buses and cars to kill time. In cafes and parks if I visited them to kill time.
2. Never played standing up. When I see someone that does, it's on a phone, but would never do this myself.

1. They buy it start it ones, store it for others to see, and never touch it ever again after.
2. Since they barely touch the device... i say they walked across the room once with the device.

I just play Switch at home someplace I can stretch out. The Switch is too big, heavy, and fragile to be a practical handheld. On the other hand, it is also small enough for someone to easily steal if you let it out of your sight. Its battery life also sucks, which contributes to my leaving it home.

I usually play GB(A) games on a Powkiddy V90 (a strangely compelling knock off that looks like a GBA SP) if I'm stuck somewhere public.

Even if the Switch were better as a handheld, would one really want to play some huge, engrossing game like No Man's Sky on a subway? I'd miss my stop. Keep in mind, though, I live in the People's Republic of Florida, so I have little experience with modern urban transportation and other things people who live in the developed world take for granted.

1. No

Being standing in a bus or train (assuming you don't get car sick from it, met quite a few that do) and playing risks it being knocked out of your hands when speeding up, slowing down, sudden stops. To that end probably quite different to leaning against a tree/wall/rock and playing something.

1. I rarely take my switch out to begin with, it's just too big to bring it with me everyday. I only bring it out when I'm going to a friend's place who doesn't have a switch, as nothing beats nintendo when it comes to party games. If I'm taking a bus or train I just read some news/forums on my phone.

When I would commute to NYC I would sit on the train and play switch, but never really could play if I had to stand due to no seats available. But thats just me

1. I only take mine out and play with it in the privacy of my own home.

The question was about the Switch, not about your wii.

1. When a user takes out their portable gaming console, besides playing in places like cafes which in enclosed, does the user also play in other public places such as the bus, park, etc?

I work in a middle school as a class aide, and the students I work with can earn play time on the Switches that I bring. When they do, they play in the class room.

2. If the user answers affirmatively to the question above, do they always find a place to sit down, or do they just stand and play with the console?

The students need to be sitting down to use my Switches.

3. Do users usually go out with their headphones and/or airpods?

If the sound becomes a distraction to the other students, then they need to wear headphones, which are available.

1. Enclosed spaces only (personally, I'd treat playing on a bus along the lines of playing at cafes etc. - it'd probably be more revealing to pit inside vs outside rather than arbitrarily divide public spaces. My two cents )
2. I'm always sitting when playing.
3. I don't go ANYWHERE without at least a pair of earphones.

1. i living in europe, maybe the public transport thing is way more different as in your place. But i play in the Metro, Bus and the Tram with my Mobile handheld stuff.
Smartphone with an Controller, Nintendo Switch, 3DS, Anbernic RG280V, Steamdeck etc...

2. i play something when i need to stand. but it depens how much ppl are there.
And i dont play with everything while standing. The Steamdeck is a no go, but a switch or something smaller is okay

3. Yeah, waering earbuds, listen to music (or when i play with the steamdeck)

1. Yes, sometimes. I prefer playing at home but if I'm traveling on the train or will be waiting for friends I consider taking my devices, other than a phone with me. Though I don't always play it even if I do. I'm a sleepy head on transportation or cars.
2. Sit, always. If I have to stand on the train or bus, I'm not trying to fumble with a switch etc. Phone only.
3. Of course.

This is Japan though, so I can do this with relative safety.
