@BigDogJang0 THANK YOU! I thought this was a failed experiment. What they should have done was shown them the pieces individually, THEN lay them ALL out on the table and see if they could put together stuff. That would have made more since, because I mean shit it's not like WE were the brightest of the bunch when we were first introduced to Atari. Hell there were manuals on the junk and that was when friends came over to help unless you had that one really smart friend.
@shandi411 No cartridge or batteries,it wouldn't work. They could have easily figured out most of it if the items were complete and functional,they had the 8 track figured but again,couldn't use it without power. An attempt at being cute, but a failure at letting the kids figure out what they had.Now show those floppies to a teenager who uses a computer and he'll probably marvel at the low capacity and slow speed of them.
one thing i AM glad about -- that i didnt grow up in this era of technology. to me, atari is old school, these kids can't even figure out a gameboy? and a floppy is pretty much an ancient USB flash drive
@iSoldMySoul2ThaDevil The gameboy's form factor has changed a lot. And a floppy does the same job as a flash drive, but it has obvious moving parts, what looks like a film, and you have to put it inside the computer. It's more like the ancestor of the CD, and if they didn't figure out the important bit is circular I think they'd struggle to make that leap.
Part 1 of translation. If you want part 2-3, just ask me. :) - What is that? Gameboy - It looks like an electric charger. It's an old VCR. - Oh yes ! It's a game. Colecovision Cartridge - A card deck? - Do you know? - No. - I think that thing will enter in that thing. 8" Floppy Disk and 3.5" Floppy Disk - It's a CD case - It's for CD? - It's a compact cassette - That is to take pictures - But you can't see anything... - A card used to pay some things... for the bank - It's an iPod case.
This is too funny! :D Even though I don't speak the language, it was still enjoyable! Would you consider putting up some subtitle/annotations, or maybe a translation in the video description? I'm really curious to hear what the kids were actually saying! :)
C'mon... I was born in 1972, and I don't recognise half of that stuff. :)

That Donkey Kong Junior game is a fucking system cartridge, they gave it to the kids like they expected them to fit in the GameBoy.

I am surprised they couldn't figure out the gameboy. Even my 6 year old could figure that out pretty quickly.

This should be done in every kindergarden, you know, so they won't act like it's from a hundred years ago.
