Greetings dear readers! I i wonder sometimes about the children that will take are places once were balding and unable to hold a game controller due to the fact that are cyborg prosthetic fingers are much too powerful to press the buttons without breaking it (hoping we get to control stuff with are minds by then after Jesus kills everyone with his mighty grammar). Lately ive been worried about my niece, for she is quickly falling into the lame fads that most little girls have been falling into (worshiping the crap out of the Disney channel ). something i noticed was on her 7th birthday where her mother proposed this "you can have a birthday party or you can get Wii" ii honest got up from the sofa yelling at the confused child, demanding that she pick the Wii instead or i would beat the piss out of her. She chose the party, and i was deeply ashamed of her and till this day i remind her of this mistake. lately though she has gotten less lame, such as showing interest in cartoons from the 90's, comic books and enjoying watching me play video games. i figured a good game to get her interested in video games would be the games that i grew to love as a wee youngsters such as Mega Man X and Legend of Zelda A link for the past. Both were games that i fell in love with the first time i saw them
Though i wont lie it was extremely annoying listening to my niece asking why that guy is trying to kill me for a good few hours, in which i grumble "just because hes a jerk" which for some reason in the mind of a 7 year old is not a good reason. Not to mention she figured that she could play the game a thousand times better then me each time i die (i mange to disprove her and dash her hopes in a manner of seconds.) I figured that the Snes would be a good tool to show a maybe future gamer what sliver age of video games were like before HD and the frustration of having to remember Passwords to get back to the same place that you were before you go off to the kill the last boss, or having to save only to start at the end of dungeon rather then on the dot like today's video games.
With all the little annoying sounds that seems to just pour out of my niece's mouth i mange to get over the whole thing when ever she tugs on my shirt asking me to play Legend of Zelda, seeing a small gleam of hope in that punchable face of hers, i even mange to cry the first time when she tried to play the game by herself. I'm still currently playing Legend of Zelda again for my niece to watch, enjoying the wonder that it brings her but still hating her little questions and comments, since shes unable to understand that the simple story plot, but i was the same once.
I now try to convince my niece to buy good games for DS (which is actually all been in vain since she manages to pick out utter shit half the time) but you cant say i try. So tell me Dear readers did you ever have a slimier experience with your younglings?
Also, I found your post, probably completely unintentionally, phenomenally hilarious.
2 Child Abuse?
I hate playing games with little kids, it's so frustrating how bad they are. And they always want to change the game every 2 minutes.
I hate kids, except for MXYPZTLK's, as s/he is wearing my hamdydown Mario Baseball sweatshirt.
But seriously, you should just give your niece geometry wars or something else visual pleasing, cause you know how the chilluns love dem flashing lights.
