Same with my wife. We still have a NES and about 40 games, I gotta hook it up every so often, but it takes about half an hour to get a game to work... aaarrrgh! blowing on the cartridges, wiggling them in the slot, using rubbing alcohol and other tricks will do it eventually! She loves all the old school 2D Jump N Run games.
I got her a Wii this year with Paper Mario and wanted her to choose some other games she'd like, but the first thing she did is go online and download Mario Bros 1-3 and Yoshi games!!! I borrowed Super Mario Galaxy off a coworker and she liked it a lot, so end up getting that one. Other than that she likes Guitar Hero on the PS3, but that's about it.
Off course I get the occasional head shake when playing Resistance or any other type of shooter when I am yelling around "come get some!" hahaha
