A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Kind've an odd suggestion, but if you like more arcade-y type games, and think you'd an enjoy a more advanced sorta spiritual successor to dig-dug, I'd recommend checking out Mr.Do! On the SNES. Weirdly good.

Sunset Riders is a fun and short western arcade shooter, as is Wild Guns.

There's also a pretty neat Shadowrun RPG on the SNES.

Ah yeah I played Shadowrun as a kid. I think I might still have that cartridge somewhere.

Mr. Do doesn't seem to be in my list of roms though. I may need look for that.
