Oh dear, those are SNES games even! LOL. That definitely stung LOL #humor #RetroGaming (h/t aidanmoher.com on Bluesky)
Screenshot of a reddit post of SNES games captioned "Got most of my  grandpa's old games" next to a four panel aging progression of Matt Damon aging sequence from Saving Private Ryan.
@Hank G ☑️ I'm surprised too, but then I remember that I just was young when SNES games where released. Then as I grew older I kept buying video games so adults owning video games isn't foreign to me, but adults owning video games in the 1990s definitely is unfamiliar.
I mean even if the grandfather was 17 (so still a kid) when the unit came out, had his first kid at 20, and that kid had his first grandkid at 20 as well, then this grandchild would be 9-10 years old. Crazy but true.
@Hank G ☑️ Possible but unlikely in a social strata where a 17 year old can have a SNES when it came out.
