Are you tired of the older generation of gamers feeling superior?

I just watched a Youtube video by Rich from ReviewTechUSA where he almost &#$@ himself because apparently today's teens can't play NES games very well. That's pretty dumb, but when you look at the comments...

Today's games hold your hand all the time!
Today's games are too easy!
Finishing a game used to mean something!
Today's gamers suck at gaming!
Mainstream games are made for toddlers!

...reminds me of my grandpa talking about how I dress or talk.

(I started gaming in 1996, so I'm not a complete newb either, but I don't look down on younger gamers for not enjoying the games I used to play back then, because I realize that's just nostalgia value and these game suck compared to today's games...)

I'm not a dick to young gamers but it IS true... most of the COD teens couldn't beat the original Ninja Gaiden if their lives depended on it. Us older gamers have a skill set they will never have.

But they would never need it. So is that a big deal? And frankly those games are BS with their diffcuilty. I grew up on NES. And won't play that series, ever.

Whether it was cheap or not, it was very possible to do. The difference is, you had to KEEP AT IT. It took more will, more drive and more dedication to beat. You died over and over and over again to the point of madness and only the strongest willed gamers survived.
