Retro style

In the ongoing rain (just won't stop), my kids have been indoors a fair bit. They do play video games, but not the way modern society likes.

You see, I used to play games on consoles, before doing everything on my computer. When the kids were old enough to start gaming on their own, they did so on older consoles, playing older games. It stuck. I have a Wii U, and I'll spend $5 downloading an old NES title that not only makes them happy, but keeps them busy for a month or two at a time.

No way am I spending $60 on some garbage triple-A title with a slew of microtransactions, not to mention the ugly online community. Nooooooooooooooope.
