Abstract

“Five [adolescent] youth hover around the Nintendo Switch to play a game about milk-ing a cow. The smell of Doritos permeates the room…youth are sitting against the back wall, playing on a Switch. Two are playing; five are watching. Another runs over to watch. Approximately eight [additional] youth are watching game play on the large screen…As I write this, the combination of players and observers shifts; someone stands, someone moves, someone crouches.”
