What do I do?Īnd then I'm always like, no, it's so easy, but then I realize, wait, these people grew up with just three buttons and maybe like a d-pad. And they're like, whoa, there's so many buttons. KAI: They're like, yeah, video games are fun. KAI: That's the thing with people that were growing up in the '90s or the '80s or like the '70s. And I've tried to get into the 3D Wiis and the 3D kind of world, but it just confuses. And I have Donkey Kong, Super Mario World, all of those '90s games.Īnd I still play them in 2D. And just do a little bit of it at a time. JOY DOLO: But it sounds like you have really healthy boundaries with video games, just realizing that you can't spend five hours doing it. KAI: Yeah, that's five hours that I'll never get back. And I look at the clock, and it's already been five hours. Because I'm like, I'm going to play this for five minutes. KAI: But it teaches me a lot of things like, you can't spend too much time playing video games. Has playing video games ever taught you a valuable life lesson? JOY DOLO: Yeah, 300,000, that's a big jump. KAI: Yeah, I'm like, how are you this good at this? You must have some cheat code or something. KAI: Like, we do Tetris competitions, where I have my iPad, and he has his phone. KAI: Oh, yeah, I compete with my high scores with my cousin a lot. Do you think of yourself as competitive? Do you really like to win? And you can only go as far as the wiring goes. Like, we would be together, and we'd have the controllers. And that was kind of what I played with with my sisters, you know. ![]() JOY DOLO: You know, Tetris and Mario is, like, of my generation.
