Ever wonder what kids today would think about the video games we grew up with? Well, the folks over at EGM decided to find out. They showed kids games like Pong and Donkey Kong and the E.T. game. Some of the best comments are in response to Donkey Kong.
Tim: Mario dies way too easy. Oh, grab the umbrella. Those are cool. Unfashionable, gay, but cool. Oh, 300 points. That's it? All you get is points? That's lame. Can't you do something with the umbrella?
Tim: They just put totally random stuff here for points. Oh, you've got an umbrella. You've got a purse.
John: Watch out, Tim—fire. It's smarter than you think.
Tim: It's strange that fire moves in this and has eyes. Oh no, the fire's coming. It's going to eat you. Are these barrels alive, too? Everything's alive. And Donkey Kong's mouth is made of pluses. Look: Plus, plus, plus, minus. They're trying to teach you math by brainwashing you.
Brian: How can you die from a fall of a whopping 3 inches?
Kirk: He's only an inch tall. He's a little short fat guy who eats way too much pizza.
EGM: Who's that chick Mario is rescuing up there?
Brian: It's Princess Peach.
Kirk: It's a hooker.
Niko: She looks cut in half.
Tim: Oh wow—she's one of those pole dancers.
