He would lose his mind if I got both lol, but I'm sure he'd appreciate it. I'm leaning toward VR the more I see all your replies, and I don't think he'd use it often or seriously enough to invest too much into it. But Oculus sounds worth it. Thanks:D

Yeah waiting on the Playstation makes sense to me because I feel they're so similar! My husband just got a fixation on the PS5 recently but he's iffy about spending the money on it lol. He has a Switch, Xbox One and Series X, PC, so I'm thinking he should just get VR. You were so helpful in breaking it down tho so thanks c:

Yeah VR is definitely something that's still developing. Every time we've tried it he loves it though, so it might be something fun to bring out occasionally on the weekends. Oculus seems to be the most accessible from the feedback I've gotten. Thanks c:

Unfortunately extreme sports games by that time were losing their appeal

It plays all 3DS games but does not have the 3d capabilities of the 3DS.

Depending in the break schedules and how staggered they are I might suggest some board games or card games that are quicker to play. Cathedral would be a good suggestion for 2 players that is quick and easy to learn.

I have tried, but all I see are Japan versions. Not American ones.

Thanks, but it is a Japan version.

Would it still play some of the 3DS games? The only one I really want is Animal Crossing New Leaf.

The ps vita, if you turn off wifi

Get a 2ds variant. They are dirt cheap

Of course when dealing with stuff like this its ALWAYs subjective. But I have been doing alot of research on best sports games of all time lists for basis of seeing if I missed any good ones for emulation and these repeatedly kept popping up. A few articles I saw had ESPN 2k5 As the best sports ever in any sport.

https://www.complex.com/sports/best-sports-video-games - This has EPSN2K5 beating everyone and the games I mentioned before crack the top 10.

https://screenrant.com/best-baseball-video-games-all-time-reddit/ - According to reddit MVP Baseball 2005 is the best

https://www.mlb.com/news/best-baseball-video-games-in-history - Even baseball's official site has it listed as the top dog.

But you get the idea, alot of googling and these names kept popping up in their respective sports over and over and its amazing it kept being 2005. My guess is that alot of people saying it is the best could be a mix of nostalgia for sure and the most common average age of users on these sites is probably when they were growing up playing these games. However, having played most of them I can say the games hold up very well even today and it is easy to see why people regard them so highly.

NBA Jam and NHL 94 were great games in their own right and I would put them up with the great arcade sports games.

Sounds like a highly secretive job, thus not allowing any devices inside with internet that could potentially expose/leak sensitive information.

NHL '94

>NHL '94 is an ice hockey game by EA Sports for the Genesis, Super NES, and Sega CD, as well as the first release for the PC (DOS), simply titled "NHL Hockey", without the "94" in the title. The game is officially licensed from the National Hockey League and the NHL Players' Association, and was the first game in the series to have both combined licenses. Being the third game in the NHL series media franchise, it was released in October 1993. NHL '94 launched to critical acclaim, and it has since been referred to as both the greatest sports game of all time as well as one of the best games ever made.

I don't know about all that. 1993 saw the release of NBA Jam and NHL 94, which is sometimes referred to as "both the greatest sports game of all time as well as one of the best games ever made". Then there was Mutant League Football too. Pretty good all around.

I'm mostly just giving you a hard time. Any evidence these games are truly superior, or do you think it's more about when you grew up and these games hitting at just the right time?

Go to cex

I have never heard of that place before.

I don’t live in the UK.

Options could include any version of the Game Boy (although Game Boy Advance recommended because it is backwards compatible), there are small LED mini games that are available for cheap, not the best games, but they'll probably keep you enteratined for a while.

I find it kinda wierd why nothing Wi-Fi is allowed, I mean, not connecting wouldn't be too much of a problem, but why can't you bring something like a Switch or phone and just leave it offline?
