Super Mario brothers were those Italian plumber guys from the arcade Donkey Kong games, right? Aren't they supposed to be the most successful game of all time? I mostly played shooters, or SEGA Kangaroo in those days, because Donkey Kong was always busy.

I was a pinball junkie, never really got terribly into the arcade games.

Nintendos are those Game Boy things my friends' kids got addicted to. I think kids today are addicted to iPads instead.

My kids/cousins would provide anecdotal evidence to the contrary.  Gameboys/ipods/ipads are about 50/50.  With the older kids tending to lean more Gameboy for 'deeper' games.

The ancient Chinese had a name for it: Feng Shui. We call it energy flow. It is the same thing, the same thought: energy is everywhere, but only a fraction of it is tapped by humans for their purposes. Now the Progenitors have taught us that we can tap not only our own latent abilities, but the latent abilities of the Universe itself.
