Teens reach to NES (or Black Barney feels old)

There's just so much going on here. One of the quotes that actually summarizes sort of the whole thing is the one kid that says, "It feels like I'm in Wreck-It-Ralph"
My favourite moment by far is the cynical Asian kid who is complaining that "this is like the least comfortable controller ever" and then gets pwned by the very first koopa, lol. His face is priceless.
"I can't go back in this game??" btw, that girl, whoever she is, is easily the smartest girl there. Everything she says is awesome.
I also loved Arya responding to the opening music of Super Mario Bros cuz she recognizes the tune, it's so adorable.
Man do I ever feel even more old because look, if Arya is there that means that these other teens must be really popular too, yes? I have NO IDEA who any of them are but the kid in braces looks familiar. Is that Bran?
I like the guy saying about the girl who finishes 1-1 "she's garbage"
How about when Arya realizes she's invincible after getting the star and runs through the koopas saying, "die bitch". That's an amazing moment giving clarity at how different these generations are. I never talked like that back then playign video games. I only started with Call of Duty 4. But here's a super young girl playing a video game dropping swears like crazy. I would have been spanked.
And I love that the girls are WAY better than the guys at this game. It's not even close.
just an awesome nostalgic video. I loved it.

I'm OLD old, though, so I missed the NES by a hair. I was an Atari 2600 guy, and jumped into Dreamcast and PS2 when I had kids of my own.
Now I'm strictly a PC gamer. So consoles suck anyway.

Clearly that is a Goomba not a Koopa. Barney just lost what very little credibility about video games he had. /unsubscribe

The girl who exclaims that she has a phone case that looks like the controller but obviously had no idea that that is what it was disgusts me. But I guess that's a teenager for you.

Once your NES gets really sick, you open it up, remove all the brass-plate things and boil them in alcohol or something.....or replace them

The thing that erodes them the fastest is moisture so that's the worst thing to do is to blow little spit all over it.

Yeah, blowing never did anything. Usually it was a bent connector that took a few tries to work because the design of the NES was terrible. It was taking a game out and replacing it that worked, not blowing. Corrosion usually came from blowing to fix a bent connector.
Better to just get a top loading model now, or a Famicom. Both are easy to get on ebay, and much better than the crappy original NES we grew up with.
