My only asian friends pwn me at video games. Then again, that's like 5 hours of their life during school, more like 14 hours of their life during summer. They level up crazy amounts in RPGs and beat all the bosses on the first try

k... The best stepmania players 95 percent aren't asian (except linus :P).
The best ddr players... most are actually non-asian besides Yasu/Take... there are several at or above that level. Pickles, Bemaniac, JSB, etc.
In most Bemani the best players aren't actually asian.

In general gaming there might be more asian players on AVERAGE that are good but that's just cause they play more (no offence).

Yep, asians tend to play way more and just focus strictly well on one thing.

That's why they get so good.

Typically they do. Japanese people do, at least. I noticed this while in Japan. Except for this one classroom in a school where EVERYONE EXCEPT TWO KIDS were asleep and the teacher was still teaching and not caring. Holy crap that was hilarious.

Like how old were those kids? Oh and I thought you're going to say those kids were playing GBA or some other portable while in class.

A generalization about any group of people that doesn't necessarily apply to every single one of them is a stereotype by defenition.

So yes, "All asians are good at video games" would be a stereotype.

Well let's EXcluse SM and FFR for a minute. I am generally really good at any video game on console or computer I play. I had beaten like 10+ video games at the age of 3 or so and just continued to beat like everything i bought of rented..
