I was browsing around gameFAQ's last night just before going to bed and I happen to find walkthroughs for games like Duck Hunt and Minesweeper...
These weren't just regular FAQ's mind you, they were incredibly detailed. o.o So a lot of effort went into writing them. My gripe? Its freaking Duck Hunt! You point and shoot, thats it! I will admit the coolest thing I found out while browsing them is how you can hold up a magnifying glass and shoot threw that to create a shot gun effect.
But it made me realize how easy it was to learn a game back then even if you rented it and 90% of the time it didn't come with a manual. Now there's in game tutorials on how to simply attack an enemy or just move around. Crazy!

No kidding.
My grandmother knows how to play Duck Hunt... Suffice it to say, if she can learn a game without help, anyone can.

You have a great understanding of emotion and body language. If ya don't mind I'm gonna watch you. I'm shure I'll learn a lot.
