The above told me that many people i asked remembered the old games and had quite a mix of memories of main characters. With asking people my own age i imagined the results would be more aimed towards the nintendo and sega ere mainly late 80's - late 90's as this was many people ages 19 - 22's childhood years. 

The results show people remembered Mario as apposed to Sonic and the biggest surprise was that more people remembered other consoles than the ones i gave as an option.

I broke down the results of the 'Other' category and noticed many people remembered the more affordable handheld console, the Gameboy!.

The music didn't seem to be as important as i thought it was but still gave a good response Furthermore the videos where memorable which i was hoping would be the case as i will now try and carry this through my project.
