Return of the CRT: A Gamer's Mid-Life Crisis
I remember getting rid of that old, bulky CRT television I had from the early-to-mid 2000s. It was a Sony Wega 20” and I got it on a payment plan from Future Shop. I loved that TV. But what I loved even more was kicking its giant and heavy ass to the curb in favor of a brand spanking new 2006 Sharp 37” HDTV. It weighed half as much and offered a larger, superior picture.

These 5 Things Would Make Animal Crossing So Much Better
Let me preface this with 3 critical points: I am a huge fan of The Sims and have played the game since I was 18 years old. (I'm 33)Animal Crossing fascinated me so much that I bought the limited edition ACNH handset before ever playing it for the first time. (No regrets!)I enjoy Animal Crossing, but it has fewer features than The Sims 4 and costs way more.

I don’t like Pokémon, never have, it’s just never been of interest to me. And I know, that’s damn near scandalous, Pokémon is one of the most loved video game franchises out there.

Does Pikachu use direct current or alternating current?
Pikachu generates electricity on a DIRECT current basis and its output is also direct current. There is a mechanism to raise the voltage between the generation and output, and depending on the boost principle, alternating current may be used.

How Video Games Have Influenced Me
My earliest video game-related memory occurred when I was eight years old. My mom and uncle were playing Mario Kart Wii in the living room as I looked on. My mom lost that race and handed me her pink remote. My uncle picked Grand Prix and 50cc and I had to make the biggest decision of my life so far, which character do I select. I had never seen any of these characters and was stuck between the green one with a big nose and the mushroom-looking one. Ultimately I picked Toad and to this day Toad is my favorite Mario character. Obviously, I lost that race and many more after but eventually, I got the hang of the game and won my first race against my uncle. From that moment on I became obsessed with video games.

Addicted to Animal Crossing!
February 2, 2022 Addicted to Animal Crossing By Victoria Ward Do you have a game that you can’t put down? Do you have a game that you play way too much and feel the need to hide the true number of hours you’ve played? Well, for me that is Animal Crossing: New Horizons on the Nintendo Switch. I started playing on December 26th, 2020, when my brothers bought me the game for Christmas. I have played it every day since then, and since then, my daily hours of playing have grown exponential. I have been spellbound by the idea of decorating an island to fit your personality, unearthing what the ground has to offer, dressing up for any event your island hosts, hosting your friends for those events, and going beyond your island to find what lies across the sea. If you’re not already addicted to Animal Crossing, I apologize, you might be by the end of this article.
