I don't get it, why is it harder for adults to learn how to play video games?

[The Corporation]

My mom beat the sh*t out of Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
I didn't even get as far as she did.
She proceeded to play Majora's Mask, got 3/8 the way through, and abandoned it.
She now plays solitaire. Speaking of which, she has a friend who can finish a solitaire game in less than a few minutes.

My dad has his moods.

At one point he could take on a game easy, at other times he just can't.

I wish I could get my mom and dad to become interested in video games.

Would have had a more interactive childhood.

It's because they grew up without cool stuff like internet...and civilization. :D

as you get older your brain is less capable of learning
at least that's what i think i know

Its when you are around 21 that you won't make anymore brain cells. Thats what I think it is.
