A few weeks ago, the family and I visited our friends that have an amazing tricked out arcade basement. I was carrying my 8 month old daughter Zoey around, showing her all the games, and explaining them to her.

Then I approached Atari's Star Wars upright. She had never seen it before, but reached right out with both hands and grabbed the controller like she was an old pro. My wife was taking pictures and was able to snap a picture of this awesome moment.

I'm not ashamed to say I teared up...

Kyle :cool:

That's VERY cool! Congrats on having a game-savvy kid at 8 months!

My kids are 5, 3, and 1, and they all LOVE "Daddy's big video games." But when I put on something like Bust-a-Move for them, only the 5-year-old figured out how to play with the controls. The other two keep touching the screen and trying to drag the bubbles together. You know, like a game on the iPhone/iPad would. (sigh, smile)
 
That's funny! If you've grown up only knowing touch screens or iPhone games, then you would naturally assume all games work like that!

Like Star Trek IV when Scottie sits down at the computer and tells it what to do. :D

*McCoy hands Scottie a mouse*
"Heeeellooooo computer."
*awkward pause*
"Just use the keyboard."
"Ah, Keyboard. How quaint."
