Can my five year old son beat the infamous time set by (game/tech journalist) Dean Takahashi at the Cuphead tutorial?
Find out in this side by side comparison.
This was 100% the first time my Son played Cuphead in fact it's the first time he has played any platformer in his life.
He only just leveled up to 5 a couple of weeks before this recording & had been playing video games for about 6 months (mainly racers & Lego video games). His true passions at the time consisted of playing with dirt/mud, his toys & observing bugs rather then playing video games.
Dean however has been writing for 23 years about video games & I assume playing them for much longer.
(Please LIKE 👍🏻 & share the video as it really helps promote the video & the channel, sub if you want to).
I have no Issue with Dean. You don’t have to be great at games to enjoy them. It turns out you don’t even have to be great at them to write good articles on them either! Maybe that in itself reflects on the awesomeness of video games....

I imagine the only reason why the 5 year old child took “so long” was because his hands are small for the controller and he had to stop to read the instructions when they came up, unlike a certain game journalist.

This is an amazing example of just how smart kids are. He reads the prompt, finds the right button/s, plays around with that action until he learns it (or gets bored) and then moves on, sometimes repeating the action as he moves to the next prompt just to make sure he knows what he's doing.

My two little brothers, 9 and 5 years old, picked up the game and went as far as Inkwell Isle III. I was astonished by how well they coordinated. Now, I had beaten the game already, so I'm no slouch, but I was just... flabbergasted. They couldn't get past the first level of Contra. Guess Cuphead had an amazing, amazing tutorial. Contra had none, I lost its instruction manual. My brothers finally got truly stuck at the queen bee boss and started seeking my help.

Even without knowing how to read, we can clearly see that the 5-year-old takes the time to test and appropriate his movements, then observe and deduce the resolution of obstacles. Dean rushes ahead and stubbornly persists without developing any methods. By the first level, he's forgotten almost all the instructions. And even without any knowledge of 2D platformers, he fails to notice that enemies reappear ad infinitum, requiring more precise jumps than blind shooting.
