Games don't exist beyond the 1980-1999 filter on Gog, tbh.

My 3080ti is mostly used for snes and n64 emulation.

Does software count?

I'm knee deep in Caesar II and Total Annihilation campaigns

There’s not a lot of video games that don’t have software.

You’d have to back to what, Pong? I see Monaco GP from 1979 listed as one of the last TTL-based games from Sega, but not sure about other companies.

I should've just said PC, I don't know what I was thinking

My brain must have just frozen when I was trying to think of a word in the absence of console

All good. I used to make a strong distinction between “video games” and “computer games” and at the time it was true but now the line has blurred to the point that the distinction is in interface style and the scale between reliability and versatility.

None of my game consoles are younger than 2000. I can't deal with PC gaming, I hate subscription models, and refuse to download "games" to my phone.
