So, yeah. This is a thread without a purpose...
I'm 39 (almost 40). I started playing back in the 80s. I was a Nintendo child, and grew up with the NES. I have no problems beating SMB1 (NES), Mega Man (classic), and I have no problems beating games like Cuphead or beating the bosses in Hollow Knight (with defined patterns). I also replayed Metroid Prime (remaster) recently and had a blast.
But my 14 old nephew... he considers himself a "gamer" (I kinda hate that word) and considers Nintendo games as kiddie games; he only plays Fortnite, Rocket League, GTA, and Spider-Man. That's basically his whole gaming knowledge. He really considers me old, and he is always sending me videos and memes about how old I am, specially because I can beat those old games.
But he is unable to even beat the first world in SMB1. Just the idea of having to press and hold a button to run is a weird concept to him, so he mostly walks. He can't beat the first level of Cuphead (he has tried).
But he can't kick my ass in Fortnite easily...
