I have finally experienced proper couch gaming

I’ve been a PC-only guy since I could afford my own desktop in '97… tried buying a used 360 back in '07 after all the hype but I found being sat 5-6 feet away from a 40" was not immersive for the 3D games that were done better on my more powerful PC anyway.

But funny you mention this because just last week I bought a little Retropie and have been happily platforming my way through my old pre-PC favorites from the couch, and it’s great! My wife likes to have me next to her too, so we’re both enjoying it. 2D games were made for couchin’. Still not convinced I’d want to do a modern 3D or non-platformer from there though (since moving to the UK we’ve only a 21" TV about 5 feet from my couch… I think I’d get a migraine from squinting.)
