Gamer uncle here. Depending on my mood I'm either a wise and thoughtful teacher helping the younger generation learn the ins and outs of games (some of which they shouldn't play, but I'm also firework uncle so I'm not always safe), or I'm "I will knock you off Rainbow Road as I lap you" uncle. I'm also older brother and treated my younger siblings exactly the same way 30 years ago.

When we all get together the kids are on their own because the adults are too busy playing four player couch games. Their gamer grandpa still plays battle for wesnoth with me periodically, but otherwise he plays a bass fishing game.
