As with film, music, and every other medium... kids won't want to give the old stuff a chance, and they'll hate it when their parents try to force it on them. Once they're older, though, a decent chunk of them will want to at least try some of the classics. Plenty of teenagers today listen to The Beatles and watch classic films like The Godfather, so why wouldn't we expect future teens to play Super Mario Bros.?
