What does it take to be a retro gamer? To "get into" retro gaming? Through the powers of experiential and observational ethnography combined with pure stupidity, I'm going to break retro gaming into its most essential parts, and figure out the most relatable approach to the hobby for the Average Joe and the Shawn Every nerd.

Wal-Mart recently clearanced-out a bunch of physical media, and I want you to see how I spend my (wife's) money! Things were pretty picked-over in the KC-metro area, my parents had some luck at their (somewhat) nearby rural location.

I made Austin watch Face/Off with me and I believe it may offer the greatest ratio of Nic Cageyness per Nic Cage flick in the history of cinema.

As a lazy cheapskate consumer of physical Nintendo Switch games, nothing speaks to me more directly than collection-style and combo-pack games, e.g. a single cartridge with two or more entries from one franchise. Today, I’m sharing my top 5 personal favorites from this category, but of the modern-ish, U.S. variety. (I’ll do retro and import variants some other day.)

Unfortunately I got sick and missed out on a Video Game Dads appearance - during an episode in which they're talking The Guardian Legend (NES), the game I picked for review - so I had to send my segment over in advance, and decided to share it here as well. Check out the VideoGameDads podcast - https://videogamedads.libsyn.com/ Or check them on social - @VideoGameDads And YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1HHCKXDnImnBnR_zotc4oA

Though most mini consoles pre-NES Classic Mini (and most AtGames products in general) aren't recommendation-worthy, I do have a soft spot for these two. I poke around both for a few minutes and offer my very uninformed, unwanted review and ratings.

This week I pore through my entire Nintendo GameBoy collection (spending about a whole hour on all 10 games I own), and I found a few that are at least worth lightly recommending based on low price and decent quality!

Looking for good bargain games for the Nintendo Switch? Me too. How about embarrassing quantities of ancient titles passably emulated and crammed haphazardly into a single, low(-ish) priced package? OK that one might just be me... but just on the off chance it's you too, then I hope you'll enjoy this video in which I recommend 4 cheap, physical compilation games on the Nintendo Switch that don't suck.
