Gaming - Relaxing Games - View Post

Based on some previous posts, I think some people are saying they relax by blowing off steam while playing something familiar (which is a little different).  For me classic arcade games (Donkey Kong, Centipede, Dig Dug, etc...) fulfill this role.  It's relaxing in the sense that I can let the stress go, even though a lot of these games are very twitchy.

I love classic arcade games. My Switch 2 is pretty much the arcade of my youthful dreams. 

I also play a lot of Atari 8-bit games on emulator. I had one of those when I was a kid. After the NES, it was the best gaming machine of the 1980s.
