You need something like this to play it on:

@Pete-S I've wanted one of those for years. Long ago, I almost built one. No space in my house now. But it is always in the back of my mind. My kids are video gamers big time, so they'd love it, too. Maybe when my new office gets built it can make the list of things to include.
I want one done in honeyed maple with stainless steel accents, though. A stand up arcade machine, but with an adult touch.

It's a fun DIY project if you have the tools and space to build it. Mine is all black so it's also a little more adult looking.
It doesn't take that much space actually. Real arcades are deeper but a DIY build can be shallower since it uses an LCD.

It would be if I was into wood working. Not a project for me, I'm afraid.

Rimworld 1.0 was released the other week.
Rimworld sounds like a convention I really don't want to attend.
Nah we know you... that'd be right up your alley.

I recently got bored with No Man's Sky, so I started a new Fallout 4 playthrough with a new set of quest / content mods that I never got around to playing.
