!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.

Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.

2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.

I should not need to explain this one.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.

Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Why, back in my day, kids a Nintendo with Super Mario Brothers and no manual!

Actually, I feel like back in the day we actually got manuals with tons of story content and artwork and such. Game manuals seem to have mostly fallen to the wayside now.

I got my NES and games used, so I didn't get any manuals. It took 10-year-old me forever to realize that I wasn't supposed to shoot the unarmed targets that popped up in Robocop 2's shooting range, and I never did figure out what the goal of Fester's Quest was.
