Hotel Gaming
Way Off Topic August 2nd, 2006Staying in a hotel definitely has its perks. No worrying about cleaning up, laundry, or other things you have to do at home. All the comforts of home are here in our hotel room this week. We have our computer, free Internet, and cable TV with three channels of HBO. It’s even better than at home.
They also have some services you can buy. You can get Web TV for so much each day. Let me rephrase that. They do have free Web TV for sports, weather, etc. For access to the full Internet it’ll cost extra.

Here is the one I was most intrigued with. There is a Nintendo 64 controller in the room. For a price of $6.95/hr you can play some classic Nintendo 64 games like Mario Kart or Hydro Thunder. You don’t have to play the whole hour at once. Sounds like a good deal especially if you are in a bind to entertain the kids. Too bad there is only one controller. Then it’d be something I would seriously consider buying for a few hours of fun. At $6.95 though a few hours of play, and you have practically bought a 64 console. Guess I’m too practical even on vacation.
