Oldies are buying more computer games. 
More than three-quarters of parents with children under 18 play computer games, and almost half of gamers are women.
Bond University research found 80 per cent of parents played video games with their children and 43 per cent of people over 50 played video games.
The report's author, associate professor Dr Jeff Brand, said the stereotype of a teenage boy gamer no longer held weight.
"Australian gamers are parents and grandparents snacking on games when they're commuting to work on the bus or train, or while they're filling in that little bit of time between meetings," he said
Some of these oldie gamers are playing flight simulation games on the PC using The Saitek X52 flight simulator joystick and throttle.
