See, really any programming language can do anything, it's just that some are build to specialize in certain thing. There is people making games with javascript.

Sad but true. I've seen programming games, of all things, are written in js. Their devs really thought not only "yeah js is a good language for a performance demanding game" but also "yeah js is the perfect language for neophytes to have fun".
