Nope, I download all the old games from some shady sites lol

Stop making use of shady websites to download your games for some security reasons.

Some of their games might have worms embedded in it that may give them access to hacking your device.

In the past we had but sadly not anymore. It's mostly the likes of high-end, modern electronic stores such as John Lewis and Curry's PC World. There are still retro video games that are available to purchase on Gumtree and eBay.

Yup, in our place too there are no arcades left. Still, there are some left in the nearby city. The craze has really gone down drastically, now a days every household have their own gaming consoles. 🙄

Garage sales would be about the only thing in my town.

And for the record, if you are able to get one, it's way more expensive than it's supposed to be which makes it annoying.

Hmm, that might be the reason people are not preferring these days to go there. There are only few left, and they also charges huge. 😏

Yeah, budget is really a big challenge for most people which is why it's only few people that afford to buy it.

Hmm. Are there any arcades still functioning at your place? I wonder so, because we have most of them being shut down. 😏

You can hardly see one over here but when you eventually do, it's very expensive to get into.

I think Alex is in UK if my memory serves me correctly when I saw where he wrote about his home town a while back.

Hmm. In UK I think the craze for the arcades is still there. But in most countries, like mine, people have become more introvert and play their own games at home. Don't know the real fun of such arcades. 😊

Yeah, I believe so too about how it is in UK 🇬🇧 with arcade games. If it's the same all over the world, most gamers would like it.

Lol. Why would gamers like that? Well both are associated with gaming only. A gamer may like arcade more than playing on consoles. That depends upon that individual.
