What horrible, ignorant parents will too much time on their hands

MOM: No, you cannot play that Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64, Nintendo Gamecube, Nintendo Wii, Nintendo Wii U, or Nintendo Switch because we already have a perfectly fine NES at home. Use that. KID: What about a Sega Genesis? Can I play that? MOM: No! And, before you get any bright ideas, you also can't play that Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance, Nintendo DS, Nintendo 3DS, Sony PlayStation, PS2, PS 3, PS 4, PSP, Vita, XBOX, XBOX 360, XBOX ONE, Sega Game Gear, Virtual Boy, TurboGrafx, CD-i, Neo Geo, 3DO... because we're not having more than one console in this house. Is that understood? KID: Yes, mom. Kid grows up to the Angry Video Game Nerd.

I agree... things have come a looooonng way since Pac-Man

I know this is a hard pill to swallow, but the parents who ridicule video games and their kids for playing them, raised kids like you today who ridicule kids for enjoying games like Fortnite. That's their Super Mario World. Let people enjoy things rather than wondering why parents back then had an issue, while simultaneously gatekeeping what games children can find to be fun.

It’s frustrating hearing these parents not understanding why their kids want a Super Nintendo. Then again, I can’t imagine buying an Xbox Series console when the games look practically the same as the ones on my Xbox One. Has console technology stagnated or am I the out of touch old person now?

"The japanese toy maker"

Well out of Bob Dole Bill Clinton and Mario, Mario’s the only one who still matters in 2024! Congratulations little girl from ‘97 you made the right choice 😎

What?! Nintendo is evil?? Couldn't be right? RIGHT??

weve come full circle. i remember this quite well. "video games bad" . my pussy hurts

Wow, Einstein has changed a bit hasn't he. (1:33 "people market things to make you spend more money") - what a genius and what a revelation. Every day is a school day for me!

1:28 Hottie that gets throttled every night back then by her husband. "I'm going to say no..." Naah... We ain't doing any of that tonight, girl. LOL

Try asking "but have things gone a bit too far" while donning this hairstyle and accessoires on national television

Hi, Games Master. I was wondering How do you get the guy in F-Zero?

"People market things to make you spend more money." - Random woman Women hold 80% of market purchases.

Yo I gotta go to therapy after playing Secret of Mana, see ya later.

Crazy how journalists haven’t improved at video games

Top tier special effects when the dude put his head and torso into Mario Kart or whatever game that is.

“Do you want me to try?” “Nope”

Douches have, are and will be.

I predict that by 1993, people will be saying "Nintend-WHO?!" They'll be in the dusty closet with those wacky wallbangers and koosh balls. Mark my words...

Parents who try to deprive their child of stuff only do damage

Reminds me of antivaxx parents and conspiracy theorists today.

My mom and dad both played Atari and Commodore 64… ain’t no way I was missing out Nintendo back in the day.

"Want me to show you?" "Want me to try?" She wanted to play so bad

Japan be like SMH! Sounds like a bunch of terrible parents that would rather institutionalized their children instead of being in their lives. I don’t know maybe you sit down and play a game with your child instead of trying to blame them for your shortcomings as a parent.

Always a woman thats trying to ruin anything fun simply because it takes attention away from them.

I remember everyone being so outraged at the price of the super nintendo and its games myself included!!!never thought i would have one!!then one xmas my uncle sent one for us in the mail!!that chrisitmas changed everything !!now im 43 and love thinki g about those great timesand i yes i still game alot!!

Everyone who didn't fall for the hype 30 years ago can now play these games for free on emulators!

Watching movies all days. Therapists: that's ok Listening to music all days. Therapists: that's fine, its just music Playing video games. Therapists: on, no, we're gonna do something. I don't know what a video game is, but im sure its bad. Our kids should behave themselves like normal kids: smoking weeds and drinking alcohol on the streets

My dad refused to buy me a video game console.. so I played pretendo.

Super Mario Bros 4 on that screen

Games Systems Are Very Expensive Now and It Has All Change. I Miss The Early 1997 and The Early 2000s and The early 1990s and I Want Almighty God Say Yes to my prayers for Angelica Cartagena from CT Ledyard and Turn back Time decades ago to Have The Guts To Speak Up And Be More Smarter and Kinder and Listen more and Be Very Brave. I Miss The Early 1990s and Middle 1980s . I Had a Nintendo And It Was Fun and I Miss The Old Days very Very Very Badly And I Want To LIFE to Go Back Time decades ago to Start All over and Be Very Young and Prettier and Have No Stress and Worries and Be Very Young and Prettier and Live Longer and Live In a better Era And Switch My Parents And Have a Rebirth From 1983 and Come From Better Parents And Have Very Young and Wealthy and Happier and Smarter Parents And Have a Second chance at My Childhood Experience and Be Raised Very Happy and Protective and Better and I would appreciate God Help He Said yes To my Prayers for The World And For Angelica Cartagena from CT Ledyard and Turn back Time decades ago to the early 2000s and 1990s and or 1980s i would appreciate God Help and thank him

Terrible system that happened to have about 10 great games.

Lets correct the title. “Bad, lazy, inept and uninformed” parents

Disgusting mother 🤢🤮

That retro skunk doo is singlehandedly responsible for a hole in the ozone layer the size of Greenland.

The ignorance pisses me off to this day. It was never ok to be that stupid. :(

I mean, I understand the mother though. There is no way she can judge SNES games but she is certainly aware of all the shady advertising tactics that dupe kids to buying useless crap, it's good to make the kids aware of it regardless of it being good or bad.

The real deal here is the guy getting a N64 from his mother, it's about to have *N* ow 64 years.

the f zero dude is drunk as shit

I was 21 didn’t play games then

It was because of Nintendo’s locking down of 3rd party developers, sega had to develop superior hardware to compete and then nintendo did to hit back. If nintendo had allowed 3rd party games to be released on other platforms in the wake of the 1983 video game crash the games coming out for the nes would have just kept getting bigger and better chips and they never would have made new hardware.

1:28 she's a cute mama

1:03 Less annoying?!?!

0:43 200 Dollars for a new SNES and 100 for a NES. . .

lol “therapy sessions”.

The media is still so cringe, slanting stories & making things up.

1:34 "people market things to make you spend more money" No shit

I think that hair has gone too far.

Lol. I can remember my friend asking his father for an SNES. His father said "No. Whats next? Super Duper Nintendo?" 😂
