These people were born around 1980-1981. That might be the ideal time to be born for gaming if you live in the US. The NES went nationwide in 1987, which meant that these people would have been around 6-ish years old when that happened, which is about the time most people start playing video games. Basically, their earliest experience with video games would have coincided with the most important event in gaming history, the rise of the NES. It's an event that likely defined their entire lives.
