    As someone who will be 45 in a week, I am thinking I am a bit too old for console video gaming these days. I might make
    a special initative to play final fantasy 4,5 and 6. Or finish Dragon Quest 11. Maybe instead of going to Europe or
    Washington DC next spring/summer, I'll do a cheap vacation where I play some video games for a whole three days or
    more.

    I turned 61 last summer and I still play Duke Nukem and Doom. I've been playing them for nigh on 30 years now. Why stop now?

    ... I don't want to go!

    I was thinking of one of those new handheld gaming pcs. I dont really play games on the pc to justify spending 2400 usd on a computer.

    Then I could get myself a Mac Mini M4.
