Yes...yes they do.  I've worked in a high school recently.  Dress style varies quite a bit, but there are kids dressed like this!

Actually when you think about it, what they're wearing is not all that dissimilar from how teens dressed in the 80's. The finer points are different but the main aspect is still there; T-shirts, ball caps, etc.

I was the same way once. Before watching AVGN's review on pre-Atari 2600 era I had no idea that video games actually started back in 72'. It was very informative.

Personally, I'd like to see more of these "retro reviews"...this was pretty entertaining.  I had to suggest a few titles in hopes that they might actually use them!

I loved the geek with the braces and the acne. He's like a perfect gamer stereotype.

And these teens really do look like they walked straight out of The Breakfast Club.

Yeah I've been wearing the same style for years. Also I have older brothers so I knew what all these game systems were. I guess I'm out of the loop

Yeah...there were a few who clearly knew what they were doing, even if they didn't do it as well as those of us who grew up with it.  Then there were those who were clueless!  Like the one girl who suddenly realized, "I have an iPhone case like this!"  How do you have the case and still have no clue about this stuff!? X-D
I realize this is probably not what he meant, but when the one kid asked if anyone had beaten that level yet, I couldn't help but laugh as if he were asking if anyone ever had beaten it since it was first released back in the 80's!  He probably meant it about the other teens...but it's funnier my way! ;-P

I thought it was crazy that in the first video, more of them had heard of Metroid than Zelda.

I have to wonder why that is?.. Both Metroid and Zelda were hugely popular back in their NES days and still are now. Maybe it was a demograph thing, I don't know.

The video is fun to watch and I hope they'll feature more retro games in the future.
I also felt old after watching...

Bwahahaha!!!
Reminds me of this time I made me ex-girlfriend's daughter play CV1.
I want to see these kids play CV1 so CV1 can WRECK their gaming self-esteem.
Then make them play Ninja Gaiden so they can feel weak and helpless in the face of insurmountable odds.
=D

I did suggest CV 1 or 3, among a small handful of other good titles!
