    The thing that most non-parents fail to realize is that kids are INCREDIBLY smart. Another thing is what a good number of "regular" American parents fail to realize is that children NEED to be taught by their PARENTS if they are to properly develop.


    Not badmouthing teachers...too much...but they're so busy doing so many other tasks, that the majority of them are doing the 'lessons in a box' cardboard cutout lessons they've been tought for generations. Hell, my sister and her daughter ended up going to the same preschool ironically, and they're STILL doing the same lessons with little change.


    While I am certainly impressed with the kid's learning capabilities, every child could be this impressive if parents took the time each day to do things like this. He's doing the right thing by sharing his interests and giving the kid a lightyear's head start on others.


    I've done the same with my children. For example my son reads on his own, is very advanced in his hand-eye coordination skills, and can already do complex addition and multiplication in his head (pre-schooler here).


    Oh, and did I mention he's already beaten Ocarina of Time and can hold his own against competitive teens in Smash Brothers Brawl? Yeah, train em young, and they'll hold their own for the future.

    Kinda sad really. They should be teaching their child something useful instead of gaming characters. With a gifted child like that, they shouldn't be wasting that talent on video games...

    @naylorboy: Yah? Well my kid, who won't even be born until 2013, went forward in time 5 years ago to the year 2132 in order to stop an evil despot from coming back in time to assassinate the makers of the Sega Genesis, thus allowing Nintendo to run unguarded through the 16-bit video game world and become a mega-entity that eventually takes over the entire planet destroying everything that is good and holy and setting up the despot as King Nintendo.


    Then she destroy's Billy Mitchell's Donkey Kong record by a score that is mathematically impossible due to her advanced ability to manipulate electronics with her mind, and then cures world hunger by making old N64 games edible.
