!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.

Not being American, thus no pizza rolls is stopping me. I do want some though.

It's Saturday night, I have no date, just a roll of quarters and a 2 liter bottle of Shasta. Let's do this.

Such a rebel, might even sleep till 730, who knows!

I resemble that remark.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Lots of things stopping me from doing this:

  1. I am currently 36 years old, I will not be 38 at any time during the year 2024.
  2. I do not own a copy of Wrestlemania 2000.
  3. I finished my pizza rolls yesterday.

I'm also going to bed at 10:30

Sounds more like you're not trying hard enough

I agree. He just needs to smoke a carton of cigs and drink a bottle of whiskey and he will feel older the next day for sure!

I think you mean "the alcohol cabinet is stocked and so are the retro games". Legend of Zelda, here I come.

As a 42 year old woman with no work tomorrow, eating takeaway pizza and drinking wine whilst contemplating zelda on the DS I bought over Covid vs a cheesy movie on Hulu this made me smile. :)

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

Sounds like you were living the dream.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

Why not both. Having a movie or show on the second screen while I game is my lifeblood.

Not having an N64 or a copy of that game stops me.

This and the other WWE games on N64 is why I went through so many controllers... A lot of them had you spinning the stick to get out of stuff and it would wear down the springs until the stick was worthlessly flaccid. 😩

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

the stick was worthlessly flaccid.

Sounds like the title of the world's saddest sex tape.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Never understood the love for N64. That controller was an abomination.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Never understood the dislike for the controller. Have you ever used it?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

Yes, I hated it.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

I don't think I can be 38 right now unless we want to really break physics. I wouldn't mind shaving a couple of years off, though.

And I'd have to use that weird-assed controller shudder.

That said, y'all have fun and enjoy it! :)

Taking turns playing Doom 64 while drinking Mtn Dew Code Red and eating Buncha Crunch. Everything was downhill after that.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Guys will see this and say hell yeah.

But for real, don't sell your games. Don't be that guy in 20 years being like "remember n64?"

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Indeed. Instead be that guy saying "Oh, man... I forgot to check the caps... the motherboard is absolutely corroded and ruined beyond repair!"

Just reminding you if you have any old consoles or other such old electronics. Remember the capacitors.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

Yup, always like them before you plug it in to test for leakage /s

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I just got an emulator and play my n64 wrestling games on my tv through my pc

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

Mind elaborating on how?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

39 yrs here. I got my kid a gaming laptop for Christmas, but then I bought all the old Halo games for it for myself. I just got an Xbox controller for it this weekend and it has been a wonderful experience.

The dream is within reach

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Ha! Jokes on you, I’m not 38 until… next week. Guck!

(I meant to type “fuck” but “guck” works just as well.)

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

This honestly needs to be a lemmy insider only word. Replace all reference of fuck with guck going forward.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

I fucking wish I was 38 again!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

I have to work tomorrow :(

But other than that, let’s swap to wcw vs nwo and your on!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

I remember Game Grumps playing a wrestlemania game and getting kind of sad because almost all of the Wrestlers depicted had already died.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

I used to love playing this game with my friends.
