I've been a gamer my entire life, some of my earliest memories were playing Donkey Kong on the Super Nintendo. When I first moved to Yakima I started trying to find little "Nerd Havens" around the city. Little did I know there was a lot waiting for me...
Hate to break it to ya kid, but all the cute afros, smiles, and puppy dog eyes in the world aren't going to magically bring your mom an extra $299.99! So I got to thinking, maybe I could buy a VR headset bundle and just put it on layaway! Do they even still DO layaway in 2021?
My daughter is just getting into video games for the first time in her life. Fortunately, I have a museum's worth of a game collection to showcase a few historical games. This time I decide to show her a true classic -- Pac-Man.
Something I do for fun is edit old Nintendo games. Someone reached out to me to see if they could turn his boyfriend's favorite game into a wedding proposal. Here's what it looked like.
I attended the PAX Prime video game convention in Seattle. They had demos for all the new games yet to be released and had some demos of video games and technology that isn't set to be available for quite a while. One thing I finally was able to experience was an Oculus -- a virtual reality headset that puts you in the game. My friend tried it and got motion sick. Will I do any better?
