This whole report is like watching someone's grandma try to explain what an iPad is. How quaint.

At least people back then were smart enough to make their own decisions as to whether or not they agreed with the idea of owning game systems... nowadays parents don't give to fucks if their kid is sitting around like a useless sack of shit playing Call of Duty with all his faggot Cod friends all day.
