Super's the name, so is the game
The kids are better than all right. In conversations with parents of young gamers, I hear the same thing: Parents are wary of buying games, sometimes for $50 or more, because their kids finish them before the cellophane wrapping hits the floor. At first, I thought these young players must be skipping steps or missing the point of more complicated games, like speed-readers finishing Crime and Punishment without knowing why Raskolnikov was so hard on himself. But then I watched a 10-year-old pick up a Nintendo DS for the first time and whip through a level of New Super Mario Bros., one that had taken me a good hour to beat, in about three minutes. And he found every hidden area and every coin. Being born in the nineties doesn't guarantee that you will have gaming chops, but it's true with any technology that each generation is more comfortable with it than the last.
