>UNC ANON!>now what did I say about using ghetto slang?>SORRY UNCLE ANON BUT WHY DO I HAVE TO PLAY STAR FOX 64 ON YOUR ANBERNIC CHINKHELD? WHY CAN'T YOU BUY A SWITCH 2 AND THE STAR FOX REMAKE? ALL THE KIDS AT SCHOOL ARE LAUGHING AT ME FOR BEING POOR!
>>738669738Do you really think any of this is funny at all? Doge memes and capital letters? Fuck off back to wherever you came from.
ok now that's funny
>>738669738Son, wear this richard mille to school to flex on them
Ok I get the message and I agree, even, but did this really warrant a thread
>>738669738My dad did this to me but with soccer.
>>738669738That's actually pretty good but every single one of us don't leave our room therefore we will never meet our nephews/nieces
>>738669738Why are some parents like this? I have this cousin that lives vicariously through his child forcing so many things on him it makes me cringe
>>738669738Not exposing your children to old shit and making them experience strictly worse remakes is just forcing them to live through a fake version of your own childhood of everything being marketed as becoming rapidly obsolete and needing to consoom the newest fad for status, all so that you can vicariously pretend to still be young during a period where everything was seemingly getting better.
>>738669738>ALL THE KIDS AT SCHOOL ARE LAUGHING AT ME FOR BEING POOR!Like they ain't broke as shit too?It's the 2020s bro, no one got money.
>>738669738Let me fix that for you.>UNC ANON!>now what did I say about using ghetto slang?>SORRY UNCLE ANON BUT WHY DO I HAVE TO PLAY VIDEO GAMES OTHER THAN ROBLOX WHY CANT I JUST PLAY ROBLOX AND WHICHEVER FLAVOR OF THE MONTH GAME ALL THE STREAMERS TOLD ME I NEED TO PLAY
>>738669738Let them play the remake but force them to use the Nintendo 64 controller.
>>738670520How about you just leave them alone? Faggot.
>>738670520>Nintendo 64 controller with gyro controls and more back buttonsThis is the progress that today's youth needs.
>noooo dad don't make me watch Lord of the Rings Extended Edition (DVD version, not the horrible Blu Ray color grading)>I want to watch Rings of power like all my school friends!
>Letting children play videogames at all.The medium is as worthless and brain-poisoning as TV.
>>738669738>ON YOUR ANBERNIC CHINKHELDThat game never felt right to me on anything but the actual n64 controller. I wouldn't make anyone play or on a handheld.
>>738669910Doge memes are funny fuc u
go to this magical place called a "pawn shop" and buy a nintendo 64https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cgMlXaFs7w
>>738669738Kids play on phones. The only kids who want Nintendo are the ones who church dads who molest them
dogshit threadNo one NO ONE is controlling a lil retard they do whatever the fuck they want, not uncommon that they want to do whatever the dad is doing.
>>738670445I genuinely had no issue with my grandma showing me old disney movies she liked. My mom was an OG star wars fan and took me to see the prequels, which was also cool, too bad we had no way of watching the originals at home, though I recall catching the end of RotJ once on tv and asking her "who's that guy?" regarding the force ghost appearing between yoda and obi-wan.
>>738670445It's just a question of intensity really, you can show and introduce your kids to old shit, but you shouldn't force the issue if they clearly aren't enjoying it, same as with any hobby (since this isn't just a vidya "issue").
>>738669738Nah, I don't want todays infants and all the young audience to play my favorite childhood games.Please stay away and have fun with your modern games.
>>738670926Pretty sure the first time I played it proper was on the wii with a gamecube controller and it felt right. However, playing it years later with a wii pro controller, I had a much harder time with the game, dunno if it was because of me getting older or the different controller.
>>738670445I loved watching old movies and listening to older music. Playing older games is fun too. I have no idea where this mentality that you can’t show younger people shit like Mario 64 without it being some vicarious living bullshit. Especially when so much modern media sucks shit.
>>738670726>DvD EditionThat's how you know it's the good shit , pic related it's mine.
>>738671082>Doge memes are funnyThey are, but not this one.
Shut the fuck up nephew and get the expert medal on Venom 1 already
>>738673620I laughed , thanks.
>>738670445>>738671845The thing is, your kid will talk to other kids and presumably go over to their house, and while you're forcing your son to watch the shitty Spider-Man cartoon that you grew up with, alongside some shitty PSX platformer you liked as a kid, they're feeling ostracized and out of place when all their friends talk about or play Fortnite, Roblox, Minecraft, etc., and talk about how cool the new Spider-Man movie looks (if kids are even into Spider-Man movies). What sucks is an opinion, and when you're a child you don't have actually discerning tastes, you're far more interested in the social aspects of it all. That's why the games I just listed are so popular among kids now, and also why before kids were super into Call of Duty and Halo, because they liked the multiplayer aspects.All you're doing is making it so that your kid is socially retarded and not actually learning anything through the media they take in, because you're making them watching toy commercials and play McKids for the NES or whatever. There's a fine line between reading Wizard of Oz to your kid and making them play some brainrotting platformer that came out 40 years before they were even born, and this is ultimately what makes a child resent their parents. It's why the kids of hyper religious football superfans have a tendency to turn into limp wristed atheist faggots.
>>738669738I wish my parents had tried to make me relive their childhoods, at least it would have been something. I wasn't allowed to do anything, not a goddamned thing, no going out with friends, no riding my bike on the street, no video games, no toys, nothing. I spent weekends and school holidays idle in the most literal sense. I read the handful of non-fiction books we had cover to cover over and over, and I mean a geography book and a recipe book. I cannot properly express how torturous it was, I wonder to this day why they even bothered to have me if the only thing they were going to do was keep me housed, clothed and fed. What drives people who hate the concept of parenting to reproduce?
>>738674235This, there's nothing worse you can do to them. They can't relate to anyone their own age, and that isolates them, they never develop social skills, and by extension that demolishes their self esteem and cripples them for life. At the end of it all, you're all they have, but then you turn them out at 18 and tell them to navigate a world they don't know a fucking thing about.
>>738674235>dad made me play a shitty NES game...I'm not in with the heckin rizzerino poggers roblox crowd...it's over...Good fuck them kids
>>738672619Zero replies to me for OC? Sad!
>>738674446have you considered asking them
>>738674235So I won’t have my child be a low attention span retard who either plays nothing but brainless mini games or skinnerbox FOMO bullshit? But actually play, watch, read, and listen to media that will benefit and provide actual entertainment? Good, I don’t want my kid to be some brainless normalfag and grow up to be a retarded consumer.
>>738669738Does OP actually happen or is it just a shitty zoomer comic about "urgh, millennials still like harry potter and star wars. LAAAAAAAAME"?Kids can barely sit still in class or at the dinner table and those are important things. Nobody is going to waste their energy "forcing" a kid to play Castlevania 3
Yesterday I was playing Mario party with my little cousins maybe get cooler family.
>>738669738I'd let my boys play whatever they want. I'd merely show them the games I was into when I was a kid. I think today games like SM64 and so on would be pretty frustrating to play so the first games I'd let them play would be games like BOTW and SMO.
>>738678235>mario retardyI'm so sorry
>>738678786How would they know they're frustrating if they've never played games before? It's not like we ourselves knew any better when the bar was lower.
>>738669738The doge dog passed away 2 years ago.
>>738679096Because that's what I've heard numerous times online. More modern Nintendo games? Zero problems. Older games? Struggles a ton for some reason, like absurdly much.
>>738669910I lold out loud to op's post.
>>738669738The OP reads like bait but I don't think the idea in practice is bad, but you'd probably want to go about it like this.>Introduce kid to video games starting with the 16-bit era since this is when they started becoming actually good>Choose a wide selection of curated games from various genres for them to play through>If they complete, say, 10 games, they get to go to the next generation>Repeat until they get to modern stuffThis way they get to develop their own tastes while still getting to appreciate titles throughout the eras. Only problem is if all their friends have smart phones (they will) and strictly talk about Roblox or Fortnite or whatever the fuck, but putting your child in public school seems like a stupid thing anyway.
>>738678786i've just gone through introducing my 3.5 y/o daughter to vidya over the past year and what really clicked with her the most right away is Kirby and the Forgotten Land, i really can't recommend that enough as a starter vidyatoo early to tell if she'll have good taste in the future but she will intently watch me play FF for hours while i read the dialogue to her so i have a good feeling, and shes played KH1/2 with cheats
>>738674235>>738674760Your implication seems to be that the "dad anon" is going to be exclusively showing old stuff and not letting them see/play old stuff with their friends.Not sure where this idea comes from.What you should be complaining about is "forbidding your kids from enjoying current things". This has nothing to do with "showing your kids old games/movies/books you like".
>>738679830yeah anyone autistic enough to be what they are describing is most likely not reproducing. i play new and old games myself, why would i only let my kid play old games?
>>738679096Newer kid games have tutorial shit every few seconds. The controllers are also much more responsive and don't wear out like 64 controller.
>>738671082lol angry doge
