• 0/7 or 1/7: You’re totally new school! Maybe you know more about recently released games. But that just means you’ve got a good reason to check out some of the old-school games your parents may have played.
• 2/7 or 3/7: You’re old AND new school! There’s still more for you to learn about video games from way back when, but that just means you can ask your mom or dad to show you how they used to play.
• 4/7 - 7/7: You’re totally old school! Nailed it. You know an awful lot about what was happening in video games way back when. Maybe your parents will want to take this quiz with you. Then you can see how much they know!
