I enjoy the arcade games at the X-Files Forum that I'm a part of and think it's quite fun to improve my scores all the time. Most of their games are simplistic and basic; if we could get some Nintendo games to play here that would be very awesome. And even games of the type they have would suffice. If you think the games would be a crappy feature here, don't play 'em.

Dark Birdo Posts: 5,142 Group: Admin Member #24 Joined: August 8, 2006	Well you don't have to worry because it isn't happening for various reasons, mostly because none of us could figure out how to implement it. It was more trouble than it's worth.

Hardcore Gamer Posts: 801 Group: Member Member #112 Joined: November 11, 2007	I used to know how to implement it. However, it's been a few years since I've done it, so I've forgotten now.
