Video games being historical is making me feel old. That being said there is this really sick Museum of Play everyone should check out if they are ever in western New York state. The arcade there is amazing.

I recently found my Sega MegaDrive/Genesis and got it working again. :)

I'm not much of a gamer, but that's very sad. Any lost media is a loss for future historians to learn about our culture.
