A Story of a 100-yr. old Granny and Her Nintendo DS

Meet Kathleen Kit Connell: she’s 100-years old, an independent grandmother, and she spends two hours a day playing on her Nintendo DS to stay sharp.

“And I don’t feel a day over 80,” she said in a YouTube interview. “I try to keep my brain active by playing on my Nintendo. It’s absolutely super. I don’t know what to do without it.”

Kit starts her Nintendo sessions with a cup of tea and her catalog of games includes a lot of board/brain titles like Scrabble, Art Academy and My Word Coach.

She ends the interview by suggesting that school children should have a Nintendo DS for math and spelling because of how much the handheld helped her.

“I can’t speak highly enough of this Nintendo. It helped keep my brain active as possible at my old age.”
