Answering to your question:
"Does playing Super Mario Bros. for the NES make any of you a small child?"

No. Mainly cause I played it only when I was little and it wouldn't make me a child if I played it now - it's just a simple game, a classic to be exact. Tetris could be called for mentally disabled, but everyone enjoys this - it's FUN. :whistle:

I actually have played more childish games than Mario (not long ago, last year - "Porky Pig's Haunted Holiday" for SNES.) It's the WB character which I liked all of my life, funny and well has a neat voice. I aced it, but it is really in my book's content for FUN. I mean, compare it to the other stuff I play on PC.
That's what I was aiming at.

Nintendo games aren't childish, although they seem so. They're just fun. Sadly, in todays "gamer-soceity" fun is declared by the amount of blood and in how many different ways you can kill your enemie. Simple fun gameplay is rare nowadays.

I know, the "gamer-soceity" I described above is very generalized here. Of course there's much more than just the two categories "blood" and "fun". But you get the idea.
