skipping

• most apps, especially those no longer available/supported
• tcg online
  • i played this for awhile and had fun for like two hours and then it was just my standard miserable multiplayer experience lmao
• pokemon 2000
  • ok if i can find a way to play this i WILL, though, i remember it not working for me back in 2000 and then it was just gone lmao
• mini games
• all pc/cd-rom learning games for kids
  • i am not pretending i am a tiny child who needs to learn my alphabet just for the sake of completionism
• any non-main game from the list that turns out to be too difficult to acquire, or just not fun once i start it
