OGHNintendo held their Brain Age tournament at Nintendo World today and they've found a winner! Barbara St. Hilaire, also known as Old Grandma Hardcore, took the prize. Barbara is a 70 year old grandmother of 13 who's been playing video games since 1975! Her prize? 2 DS Lites and 10 games! Looks like her grandchildren might be getting more than candy next time she pays a visit!


"I'm amazed I won! I didn't think I was that good," said Barbara. "I play with my 13 grandkids and they are all gamers. It's a lot of fun."

I wonder what kind of crazy competition Nintendo will think up for next year? The Wii will needs it own killer app among our senior citizens! Then again, Barbara is still a regular gamer. Her current goal is to beat God Mode in God of War!
