Does video game etc hire at 16

You aren't going to get some awesome video game job EVER! Even people who play video games for a living (game testers) don't usually enjoy the games they have to play. They have to play crappy buggy parts over and over so they can give their info to designers. It's tedious, and boring. Stay in school. Try for a job at Game Stop, but quit dreaming of the awesome life lived playing Video Games.
