Kids today cannot still love and know an brand that hasn't been relevant since the early 90's. For them it doesn't exist until you show them or they are lucky enough to find it. Anime owns the TV now.

That is why as they grow up they have parents who enjoyed it and find it to be something good for their kids to watch. I already know of a few people on the forums who mentioned this same thing.

I own the Ghostbusters 1 + 2 DVD set, picked it up a little over a year ago. I am pretty sure my little girl will end up watching it. Just like how little girls know what The Wizard of Oz is, even if it is over 70 years old.

Parents.

If a parent needs to buy his/her child a game for their birthday and see something like Ghostbusters sitting on the shelf, they will know what it is. They will know that it isn't bad for their children. Odds are it may be picked up.

 

 

 

Spot on.  Never ignoring the sneaky influence of parents on childrens knowledge.  My kids are champing at the bit to go see the new Star Trek yet they've never shown any interest in it on TV, etc.  Why?  Me - their Dad of course.  They know who Kirk, Spock is, etc. and are primed to go even though the franchise has been dead for years (IMHO anyway).
