NDS Walkthroughs - Why are NDS Games so hard?

It's funny... I consider myself a pretty awesome gamer, but it seems as though the majority of walkthroughs I access are for NDS games! I find this surprising, as it's supposed to be a kids handheld console, most of my students have them. So why are the games so damn difficult?

I must admit, for the most part, I love this challenge, but I'm surprised that kids can get through them...

It then makes me feel like, 'maybe I'm actually a lot older, and possibly lamer, at games than I think'.  

I think what it really comes down to, is that this new generation of gamers are just that good.

I think my XBox games score and achievements speak for themselves, and i shouldn't doubt my gaming skills, and in the case of the NDS, I can just blame my giant man hands...
