People will be more likely to pick up a video game system for the kids in bad times over more expensive things like a family vacation. So video games is in pretty good shape, unless gas prices really go through the roof, but that isn't going to happen. One reason oil is $140 per barrel is because the economy is weak and oil is tied to the US dollar, as it gets stronger the price of oil will come down. In the mean time, Saudi Arabia (I think) is going to start pumping 500,000 more barrels of oil a day. It won't do much, but it should slow down the increase in prices a little bit. Other Arab countries will do this also because as oil becomes more expensive it makes alternative choices more appealing and that isn't in the Arab states best interests, they want us to be buying oil for decades to come.
