Does anyone else on /vr/ have trouble deciding what games to get next?
Personally I have an extensive backlog and so with eBay and the like I can find all of them and hunt for reasonable prices. But at the same time I'm never sure whether to buy game A or B, unless it's like Little Sampson for $20.
That's why I like hunting at Goodwill, thrift stores and yard sales, because I kind of just take what I can get, while retro stores and sites just leave me with too many options to choose.

Just pick one and play it, ya twat.

How, though? Just grab one at random?
>>
>>3771843
Don't think about it hard, just grab a game, or some games, that look good then just go home and play it. No big deal.

I just buy anything I find cheap. Which is now well over 1k games. I'm never going to play them all. But I can always sell them to hipsters for a nice profit.

I buy plenty of gen 6-7 games at those places but the only /vr/ console game I've bought this month at "why not" prices was pic related for 99 cents. They're just not there enough to be worth the gas, you gotta be looking for other stuff too.

and Bad Mojo but PC games are still plentiful

what I do:
download full romset
delete games you sure aren't going to like (in my case sports or shit like mahjong)
try every game for a few seconds (that is as soon as the gameplay begins)
repeat infinitum
>>
>>3773071
So basically never play anything
>>
I just get popular games from well known devs
Atm I have so many games I didn't beat yet so I shouldn't cop anything else for a while

For me, the problem isn't picking a game to play, but rather, sticking with the game I chose.

I tend to start a game and something about it reminds me of some other game and I end up switching to that and so on. This happens when I emulate as well.

I call it gaming ADD.

It's just plain old ADHD

Sounds like you need more games! Good problem to have, haha.
I'm at the tail end of my collecting and I have only a few items I'm looking for. If anything, I go to many retro shops and not find stuff.
You just have to know what you want. Be humbled by the fact that you can't play it all, take a deep breath and go on what I call a game adventure.
1. Begin a game, any game, figure out what you like about it. Did you like it? If yes, continue.
If no, play a different game.
2. Find another game that has what you liked about the first game! Did you like it? If yes, continue.
3. Do a bit of research! Find out if those people made any other games that you may enjoy and with that new found knowledge you can go to these thrift stores and yard sales with a fresh new perspective.

There are no wrong decisions. Enjoy your games.

Yes there are. You'll realize that when you grow up and have to live in the real world where there are no safe spaces where all opinions are equally valid.
