The other point about electronic games is that there is no real "peril" of failure. Just reset and keep going.
In all other sports/activities I can think of, "fail" may include any number of the following:
- injury
- damage
- despair
- humiliation
- increased effort to improve
- delayed gratification
All harder things to surmount vs. just clicking a few buttons.
Which builds character? Which gives greater satisfaction when achieved? Which forms lifelong lessons and wisdom?
But how do you SELL those factors?
