I wish I had a retro handheld enthusiast friend IRL (lemmy.ml)

I really wish I had an IRL friend that was into retro handhelds just like I am.

We could sit on the couch, hang out and play and show off our games and devices to eachother. Show how we've progressed in our games. Infodump about the weirdest facts related to Gameboys, DSs, emulator handhelds and so on.

But, I don't have any IRL friends who are at all interested in this stuff.

I'm sad :(

I would be into this maybe, but I was always terrible at Mario and stuff like that. I’ve been trying to get back into games, and nothing is grabbing me, sadly.
