We Still Love Retro Gaming And The 15 Ways You Can At Home
Let us be honest. Video games have come a long way over the past three decades, and often for the better. Pushing the boundaries of technology and creativity by telling better stories and looking even more fantastic with each generation, there’s a lot for gamers these days to be happy about. That said, forgive us for for still yearning for the glory days of gaming. A simpler time that still produced happy memories, hours of fun and unforgettable moments and experiences. Kids today don’t know what they’re missing! Check out 15 ways you can pay homage to this iconic era and bring the spirit of retro gaming back into your home.
1. Get Together
In the beginning, there were the arcades. Gaming was a social activity with people crowded around cheering and laughing. While the internet has opened up amazing new possibilities, the fun of inviting your friends over in person has been lost. Video games should be played with friends, not online with strangers.
10. High Scores
One of the many reasons arcade games were so great was the high score system. You could proudly leave your score there for all to see and challenge. These days with exhausting online leaderboards the simplicity and fun of high scores has been sucked out of the experience. Bring them back with a homemade leaderboard between you and your friends!
