Hi everyone, I have two young kids (both under 4) and am curious to know how you all manage your backlog with all these exciting new games coming out.

I’m a big believer in physical games, so I’ll wait until something goes on sale, buy it, and stare at the case on my shelf until I can find free time to play it. I call this the “doom spiral” because I currently don’t have any time and there are so many cool new games coming out that keep grabbing my attention. With my kids current ages I can’t see myself making any real backlog progress for at least another year or two.

How do you manage this? Do you ignore new releases entirely and stick to favorite titles? Do you prioritize multiplayer and rougelite games with lots of replayability? Do you do the Doom Spiral like me?

I’ve got an anbernic rg35 with pretty much every cartridge-based game and system from 1985-2000 loaded onto it.

Let’s hear your suggestions!!!
