The period from 2009 to 2013 was spotty for me, as I had an addiction that I did not yet have under control, and it resulted in me missing out on a lot of good games. I still wonder where all that time went.

In recent years, however, I've been a bigger gamer than I ever was before. Later tonight I'm going to pick up a copy of Dragon Quest at midnight. The 24-hour store near me only has 3 copies, so I'm not confident I'll manage to get one yet, but I don't see why not. I can always resort to digital if worst comes to worst.

But that whole "a true gamer never grows out of it" thing is quite disrespectful. Many of us may outgrow gaming at one point in our life; no one can be certain what their hobbies will be when they are much older.

So long as someone has hobbies. Most people just become workaholics once they reach their 30's or late 20's.
