Las Vegas is AMAZING for Video Game Hunting!

They say what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas… unless it’s video games, then it comes home with me. Game hunting across Las Vegas, chasing retro gems and making zero promises about self-control. If you live in the Las Vegas area, check out Retro City Games: https://www.retrocitygames.com

Las Vegas is a sun-baked mirage where common sense checks out at the front desk and never comes back. It’s a city powered by neon, bad decisions, and the unshakable belief that this pull of the slot machine is “the one.” Time doesn’t exist here—clocks are banned, sleep is optional, and breakfast can legally be a margarita served in a yard-long plastic guitar.

The Strip is like if Disneyland, a midlife crisis, and an airport gift shop had a baby. You can visit Paris, New York, ancient Rome, and a pyramid with a laser on top—all without leaving Nevada or learning a single useful fact. Meanwhile, someone dressed as Elvis is marrying a couple who met four hours ago, while another Elvis watches, quietly judging.

Vegas is the only place where you’ll see a man win $20, lose $2,000, and still say, “I basically broke even.” It’s loud, ridiculous, unapologetically extra, and somehow proud of it. Las Vegas doesn’t ask why—it just asks, “Cash or credit?”
