His point was we (probably) won't be able to play old video games as adults and that will be bad for our emotional well being. I think that's silly. In 30 years that will probably be the least of our worries. As an adult who played Doom and Duke Nukem 3d as a younger kid, I can assure you, that's the least of my worries. There's plenty of other things as an adult to harm our emotional well being.
"you'll own nothing and be happy" is a completely different topic but slightly related.
The original post was not just about video games, but ownership, nostalgia, and emotional development in general. I say this is obvious because they clearly discuss other media and property. They call out books and music as other parts of the trend.
