Yeah… the Entertainment Software Association polled kids. Doesn’t say what kids, or where. We have long since known that polling can easily give you the answers you want.
YouGov and ESA conducted a 5-minute online survey in the U.S. from September 26-30, 2025 among 1,912 respondents ages 5-65 recruited from YouGov’s proprietary online panel. Data is weighted to be representative of the overall U.S. population in terms of age, gender, ethnicity, education and census region. Respondents ages 5 to 17 were asked to complete the survey under the supervision of a parent.
So…… when was it that all of the children in America were polled again?
With the power of math you don’t have to. I’m a data analyst by trade so I take offence to this question every time.

Also, I’m not going to argue about this.

Neat!
We still have no idea what kids were polled, and where they’re from. What we do know is that those that polled them has reason for a bias.
