N64 was 1996 to 2001, and pretty much dead before that. So if a kid is 25, they were born in 1996, and probably didn't have a game system or physical ability to really game until the GameCube, and realistically may not have gotten a game system until the wii.
unless their parents were gamers? I think that's a lot more likely now than in 1996 though.
Yeah. My oldest nephew is 25 and the GC was the first system he ever really got into, they had an N64 but he was too young to really play it. He couldn't give a shit about 80s/90s gaming, the guys you see on YT that are younger fake retro nerds with the shelves full of old games are likely around 30. They're old enough to be closer to it and appreciate it but too young to have lived it. Plus have enough disposable income to drop the stupid $ stuff goes for now on that shit. At 25 you're probably not making much $ even after college, especially these days.
