Games and Gaming # 38

Most of my experience on a gaming console was with the classic NES when I was a teenager. As far as the latest model consoles go, they tend to be quite expensive. On the other hand that would be a good reson to have them in a library. The games tend to be around $30.00 when new. However some stores specializing in gaming supplies will buy, sell, and trade used games and systems. I have a sister who is an avid gamer. She bought a Nintedo Wii. She did so thinking she would have access to some of her favorite classic NES games. She found out that a subscription to certain websites would be nessecary. It had dissapointed her at the time. I think it really depends on what system is popular in the area and what sort of games are wanted. Many games require good reading skills, strong hand-eye coordination, and the ability to make quick decisions. I also think that there will be some people who'll end up checking out books as long as they're already at the library and some who won't. It just depends on the person.
