I think the effect is similar to what Peter Norvig described in his "The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Data" lecture (which if you haven't seen, you should really check it out -- its awesome). In essence, yeah, the core mechanic is the same, but the digitization of it fundamentally transforms its ubiquity, how often it can be iterated, optimized for more and more segmented group of kids, etc. I think there is an argument to be made that enough of that can effectively change the character of the activity itself, even if it is at first glance "sorta the same thing."
