Many video games are made in Japan, and one of Japan's leading food industries is fishing. This is a culture where squid and octopus are seen as viable daily snacks, so fishing is pretty ingrained into the culture. So if the video game you are playing is [[Sidequest]]-ish and [[Mini Game]]-ish enough, it ''will'' have a '''fishing minigame'''.
 
Fishing minigames also occasionally appear in Western games, mainly those that fall on the more "simulationist" side of the "game"/"simulation" line. Something about fishing is impossibly tempting to simulationists. They're obviously [[Pun|addicted]] [[wikipedia:Addicted to Bass|to bass]]. Or maybe they just enjoy boredom. Who knows?
