I imagine something similar has been done with an NES and tv I sound like a slacker version of MacGyver, but it's not too tough to hook a NES up outside with a portable TV.

You won't play your NES on a TV outside somewhere this summer, NO BALLS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's cheating. Old school. It'd be pretty funny if you showed up to a fast food place with a tv and NES and set that up at a table inside.

I've seen people bring their gaming laptops into McDonald's and set them up in a booth, so it wouldn't be too much different if you have a small enough TV.

LeatherRebel5150 | 1,056 Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 I love ticket to ride. My friends and I play it at most get togethers. It really boils down to 2 or 3 other friends watching me and my best friend go at it. He focuses on a strategy and I usually see/sabotage his strategy on purpose with my moves and our over the top banter becomes the entertainment for everyone else playing.

True. I wonder what they'd say if they saw you starting to set up a tv. 40 minutes ago, Estil said: How many people (especially young people) would even know what it is? You know that is an interesting question. What's the oldest console the current youngest gen knows about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tendo Miner | 1 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Craps-my buddy Dwayne here at work has been in a few games where guns have been drawn. So far he’s been teaching me how to take my money in craps. You learn quickly when messes with your change purse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tekdrudge | 126 Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 I'm a big fan of Fluxx. One of the best card games I have ever played. My particular flavor is Zombie Fluxx but they are all good. As weird as it sounds the Harry Potter version of Clue is an amazing board game. Because it takes place in Hogwarts, the map changes after everyone has had a turn. When it comes to dice games, there is only one logical choice. Dungeons and Dragons or any other dice rolling RPG. CRIT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captmorgandrinker | 1,649 Administrator · Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 I can't believe nobody has said Left/Center/Right yet. Not sure if that's considered a true dice game though, so maybe that's why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
