Adventures in Video Games - A new blog / journey from yours truly

One thing that I enjoy is sharing my thoughts of my many hobbies whoever is interested enough to spend a little time reading what I have to say. Each blog that I run was basically started as a creative outlet for said hobby and to hopefully get more enjoyment...whether that be trading cards, toys, music or now video games. Today I launch Adventures in Video Games!

I never envisioned myself as a video game collector, nor did I see myself with a room full of Transformers and other action figures one day. However games have always been one of those "distractions" that I've had around since I was young. With so many hobbies and what seems to be so little time, I'm always looking for ways to get more out of my hobbies and these blogs have been a great outlet for me to share my thoughts and opinions. Some have even forced me to enjoy things that I've put aside and ignored.


That said I felt a blog for my game collection was perfect as there are many games I own that I've never played or haven't touched in years. My hope for the blog is to sit down and play some of these games and share some photos of the games as well as my thoughts and opinions. I won't be doing any "Let's Play" YouTube videos or anything like that. Instead I'll be sticking to the tried and true "pen and paper" so to speak to share my content.

While it may not be the most entertaining read at times, I hope if you enjoy games like I do that you'll stick around, or at least drop in every once in awhile to check out what I have to share. My hope is that I'll be able to provide new content on a somewhat regular basis moving forward, yet while trying to still juggle my posting duties on my other sites. I'm excited to see where this journey leads me so here I go.

  1. I've considered staring a seperate blog for my gaming passion as well. I look forward to future posts!

    And might I add, great set up, I'm super jealous! What arcade do you have there in the corner? All I have is my N64, NES and SNES roms, Gamecube, and a Wii; plus a Gameboy Color, Nintnedo DS, and a Tiger Jurassic Park handheld. I wish I at least still had a SEGA Genesis.

  2. I'm so jealous of your arcade! I have my N64, NES and SNES roms on https://techtoroms.com/roms/super-nintendo-snes/ an old Gamecube; plus a Wii with all sorts of games. But nothing beats the good ol' days when we had more than one system at home - like SEGA Genesis or 32X (which are actually really cool).
