Teens react to NES...

Kids already reacted to the gameboy, they thought it was a phone.

The new generation is all screwed. It's about those teenagers that I was talking about on my Sonic Adventure DX review, some of them that are real gamers seem offended with what I wrote. Now if a game has no good graphics, it's a bad game. Battlefield ftw.

I'm not going to watch it as it will almost certainly just get my 'angry old man' reflex going.

Stupid video with stupid kids. 30sec is enough. ADblock and no profit for author. Stop spamming steamgifts forum.

I don't know why it makes you angry, you just have to understand that the younger generations don't grow up with these stuff, so they don't know them. And it makes sense that they don't even care, since there are "better" things to play with today.

I don't get it, my first system was the SNES but I still know what just about every system before it was(Before I was born) and have played most of them and if not at least tried them with an Emulator, maybe call this video "None gamer teens react to NES?"

Also that girl at 4:04 lmao, and the dude that thinks his Xbox One is better because it has 1080p(Even though many games run sub 1080 I believe...)

Also least comfortable controller ever? Lmao

Pft. Kids.

And besides, the Commodore 64 was better than the NES anyway! :p

should depend on where people live, too.
i've never even seen nes in real life, i know what it is tho :D

Huh... am I really THAT old (being 21 and all) that I had a NES and played Super Mario Bros while those guys in the video didn't? Or is it just that Bulgaria is so technologically backwards that we get older systems more easily than "advanced" countries? :P

"I have an iPhone case like this" -> this

well, no surprises there.

If a a current programmer was faced with Cobol / Fortran / Lisp / ... he/she wouldd react the same way (I assume).

hardware has come a long way in a few years, so has software. Only because I can use current technology doesn't mean I need to know all it's predecessors.

also: the vid wouldn't get a lot of views if they just put kids there that say "yeah, I know it, I know the games, I even already played on NES", right? ;)

Now wait 5 years and there might be a vid "Teens react to video games without day-one DLC and ingame-purchases"

Kids today are spoiled by the current technology that exists...

Back when I was a kid, playing on my Commodore64, I had to actually program the games BEFORE I could play them! >_<

I love the part where the kid says "this controller sucks", it's funny because he has no idea that EVERY controller after Nintendo released the NES in the mid 80's was designed to mimic it in some way, i.e. the DPad(directional pad), the Start button and at least 2 "action" buttons.

They are annoying and stupid in general. But the channel wouldn't be that popular if they weren't.

hahaha cool video

I was born in '91. Only saw a ps one in my childhood at one of my friends home.
I bought a ps2 for myself a year ago. That's the second console i have ever seen.

i'm a young 22 years old. First console was a SEGA Genesis(Vectorman 4 life). Got an NES in like '98 lol. Today kids have money and get al the new stuff immediately. I still love hooking up a genesis and playing some co-op with my cousin.

-The Legend of Zelda
-The Legend of Who ?
:D
That was a funny video.
I remember blowing into my cartridges :)

My first console was a PS1. I didn't know the NES and such were consoles until about 5 or so years later, only because I'd never heard of or seen one before. Does this make me stupid? Not at all.

these are the people that make me really ashamed to be part of this generation. im only 14.

Oh a NES... Never had one. I had infact one pirated NES that came with a hundred games and the controller was in fact a computer keyboard. The only keys that worked(for obvious reasons) were the directional keys, space for A, M and N for Start or select, and ALT for B.
And the screen it was used to play it could only show green. So everything was all in different shapes of greens xD. Great memories.

About thier reaction. To be honest I didn't see the video til the end. Some dumb moments I couldn't stand for long(not for the unknowledge about the console but because of their atitude, even the oldest people). That said I think it does not worth my time.

They over-react on purpose. On the gameboy one a couple of kids said they have a 3DS, but still tried to insert the cartridge turned on the wrong side. And that thing hasn't changed.

"1080p Xbox one", now that made me laugh.
Still exaggerated video like it usual is. But hey, got to have the views somehow ;)

You do know that they are paid to act? None of their reactions are real. Some of these kids are even actors in shows.

Sad to say but I wouldn't have been that much better than them. I know the console and it's history but I've never had the privilege (or pain) of interacting with one personally so I wouldn't have been any better at getting it to work. Even the N64 would have baffled me and that was lightyears beyond the NES. And I'm 26...but that's what I get for living in Africa. My early interactions with consoles were limited to play on the Gameboys a couple of my richer friends owned and then later the PSX which was the first non-handheld console to gain any sort of popularity here.

Ah, NES. How I miss you. Mine finally gave up the ghost. Can't find one locally and they seem to want 40 bucks on eBay. Spent many hours playing Super Mario Bros. 3 with my mom. Never beat it. Either the power'd go off or the game'd mess up and we'd have to start over. I'm 26 if that matters.

I'm am surprised though. I'd expect the kids to be pretty good at Mario. Simpler controls, no Z-axis to worry about, straightforward progression, and on top of that it's the ancestor of modern platformers. Yet, I bet they'd still wipe the floor with me at pretty much any modern game. My brain never made the jump to 3D and joysticks.
