    Videogames and boardgames. Videogames are always depicted as the players wildly buttonmashing and getting into weird positiona for some reason.

    Boardgames are not as common, but if they are they have glaring issues if they are made up or not played correctly if they aren’t. The only pefect example of doing it right i know of is hokagou saigoro club, which uses real boardgames and explains them in detail. You can play some of those games without reading the rulebook if you watched the show or read the manga.

      There was some old TV show…it might have been Bewitched or I Dream Of Genie, something like that. A man and a woman are playing chess during a dialog scene. He makes a move and says “Check.” She immediately makes a move and says “Checkmate.”

      I guess it’s possible but extremely unlikely you’re going to simultaneously move out of check and into a checkmate.

      If you’ve ever used a lobster grip you aren’t allowed to complain about weird grips on controllers on screen.

        Three of the last three games I’ve played have numbered levels, what the hell are you talking about? UFO 50 has them all over. Deep Rock Galactic Survivor has numbered floors and tiered levels of hazard. I played some random tower defense game on my phone that has numbered waves.
