Published Aug 7, 2026, 11:02 PM EDT James grew up in the arcades of the 80s and has played games on everything from the Milton Bradley Microvision to the PlayStation 5. He worked in gaming retail during the PS1/PS2 eras, and even had a small stint at Working Designs. It's been a very long ride and is nowhere even close to over yet, and every stop along the way is a chance for something new and fascinating to emerge. Whether that be on a mainstream console like the now-classic Xbox 360 or something less obvious such as PlayDate or NeoGeo Pocket Color, it's all worth looking at.
