MODERATORS
Because old video games have a cheaper point of entry with fewer home size/workshop ceilings on its development.
E: old games run on any computer or phone, there’s tons of handhelds that’ll emulate em, you don’t need for real workbench to work on em.
It’s the perfect habit for someone living out of a tent, car, friends couch, dorm, tiny rented room or what have you.
Yeah you can go absolutely nuts ass with old games and spend nothing or almost nothing. Entertainment for tens of thousands of hours.
