September 12th is National Video Games Day! https://nationaldaycalendar.com/n...

I might take the boy to the arcade after work. Otherwise, I'll probably play some Super Offroad for the weekly contest. What are you doing to celebrate?

Since when did we even have a National Video Games Day? Is it even for real?

And empire, if you do quit your job and go on welfare (and somehow qualify!), how do you expect to keep your rent/mortgage and lights paid? Not to mention it'd be kinda hard to get any new games or consoles.    Yeah, definetly don't quit your day(?) job.

I'm out of town and forgot to bring a handheld   so I will probably try to ride around and check out new game stores and goodwills to see if I can find anything.

The answer is social housing and unreported cash jobs like the rest of the people in the life long multi-generational welfare game.

True, I guess even crime is considered working. I’ll give it to you there! We should be pointing fingers at the people who inherit money, and never have to work a day in their lives.. Now they are the scum of the earth!

Guess I'm gonna play a game. Oh wait.... I play games everyday. Guess it's always national video game day for me.
No wait. Except Saturdays. I rarely play video games on Saturday.

I plugged in the arcade machines for the first time since moving a few months ago. Played some VS Excitebike, VS Super Mario Bros., and Dr. Mario on the PC-10. Woohoo!

How have I been playing video games for 30 years and just hearing about national video game day now? Was it like just invented? Anyway, I "celebrated" by playing WoW for a few hours I guess.

I'm recently playing 3DS Animal Crossing as I dusted it off about a week ago now so I did that for like an hour. I also played my usual 2 mobile phone games I bother with as well.

Truth is I have motivation problems and I really need to turn my Switch back on as most games I have are not finished and it bugs me as there are more coming which if I grab them too will make things worse. I probably could sell some of them away but that wouldn't be the right thing to do.

I celebrated by playing Commando on Commodore 64.

I'm not looking to buy or sell anything at the moment. Sorry if I got your hopes up.
This is so sad. Can we get 2 likes?
