they should give them time to practice. but the elderly people have fun which is good. those are expected reactions even from noobs from mario kart or if you haven't played mario kart for a long long time.

Yep. It's well known that old people don't know how to play video games.

Loved it. I kind of want to bring my Grandparents over for a game of Mario Kart. I tried to talk my parents into it, though even they are a hard sell.

It's similar to any other noobs playing.

No? Any gamer with some experience in gaming but has never played MK8 before can easily understand the controls in a matter of minutes. Unless by noobs you mean people who have never played a game in their life before.



Wow, I used to believe these React videos were entertaining!

EDIT: Uploaded with the teens now! They're a bit better.



Holgie did a little better the second time. She still couldn't keep off of the walls.

I expected it to be cringeworthy and i was right.

I cringed at so many comments in this thread.



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

I noticed that too. And she actually beat a computer which is good progress.

At this rate she should be at a competitive level within a few thousand races
