We used to drive three hours to go to a fancy arcade in LA called Arcade Infinity because they were full of imported Bemani games and other Japan arcade exclusives. Such a fun time!

Same. Gimme single-player or couch co-op all day.

I did meet my wife playing EverQuest 2, so I've done my fair share of multiplayer, but for me, single player experiences are king.

Been chasing that high ever since 🥲

Couch co-op is such a vibe. Miss playing things like Champions of Norrath, Crash Team Racing, or Timesplitters 2 with friends on the same screen

Yesss those are some of the best! Need more friendly competitive games and more team co-ops

all the best times I had were co-op times. From mario bros, ice climbers and joust to world of warcraft and league of legends.

I played DDR by myself. I play like I'm drunk because I'm not coordinated. But I was always afraid of messing up in front of people.

But playing Shonen Jump Super Stars with your friends was unmatched. Especially when friends would hand me their DS' because while I don't know kanji nor hiragana

nor kirkitana, I do however know how to figure out menus by messing around with it long enough. It's how I can play Japanese mobile games.

Singstar was probably my most played PS3 game 😅

Smash Bros. Brawl and Halo 3 were some of the big popular releases when I was transitioning from Middle to High School and holy crap the amount of hours my friends and I spent on those games after school and on weekends!

It really was an irreplaceable feeling. I've come close to those feelings in recent years, but i don't know if anything can ever really be properly equivalent.
