Same age, having the same situation. I game on PC sometimes but not even that is satisfying me. I think we need a break, maybe that old gaming spark will kick in again later.

Obviously he hasn't. lol

They're doing something right in, Japan which Sony obviously isn't. Most of what we're going to get(To my knowledge), is focused more on the western audience, they are neglecting the Japanese audience while Nintendo is satisfying both.
