My wife is very supportive of my hobby. Since I started, she's gotten me a lot of artwork and parts on special occasions. She doesn't mind having games in the house as long as I keep them in my man cave downstairs and on one side of the garage. Though, with all that said, she's not really into games. She has her own DS Lite and doesn't mind playing Wii every once and a while, but it's just not her thing.
However, I fired up Vs. Balloon Fight tonight on the Red Tent and asked her if she wanted to try it out. Normally, she wouldn't, but she was intrigued by the attract screen. It was easy for her to learn since there's only the joystick and 1 button to use. I just told her not to get caught underneath the enemies.
We had a lot of fun and she was pleasantly surprised. She beat me a couple of rounds, but I was holding our baby in one arm so she had a handicap. Since she's a graphic designer, maybe now this will be motivation for her to help me make a custom Vs. Balloon Fight Instruction Card.
Do you guys have a favorite arcade game that you play with your spouse or significant other? I think I just found ours.
