*disparaging comment about the younger generation*
Why in my day we walked 10 miles uphill in the snow just so we could buy a new game for our Sega Genesis or SNES, and games back then were cartridges and not one of today's newfangled DVDs or BlueRaes or digitalwhatsits you younguns use now.

whenever i try to play an older game and it's too hard i just quit and never touch it again lol

oddly, I seem to find a lot of newer games to be much harder than older ones  O_0
but at the same time, it's a different kind of difficulty, where the old games required thinking and skill to move forward, while newer games just kind of throw shit at you just to make it harder to get through

or a combination of throw shit at you and having one-hit deaths or at least really fast deaths

like contra and various shmups and battletoads
