05 How to Play NES Games in VR

When did nerd culture shift from being passé to the dominant force across all media? Where did all your fan fiction go before the Internet? Remember Blockbuster??

Also, we make a decision on which '90s Star Trek to binge. Also, how did anime get so mainstream? Also, the difference between simple games, and complex games that are easy to access.

And, you can play the original NES Zelda and Dragon Warrior in VR now for some reason?!

What we're playing:

• Cozy Grove: Animal Crossing meets Spiritfarer (but not really!)
• 3DSen PC: Play NES classics in VR via some sort of witchcraft!
• Deep Rock Galactic: Co-Op space dwarves that combines the best things of other games!
