![[Revised Title] Review of Dunk Dunk for Nintendo Switch](https://www.4thegamerz.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/Revised-Title-Review-of-Dunk-Dunk-for-Nintendo-Switch-360x180.jpg)
Okay, so I read about these four video games making it into the World Video Game Hall of Fame, which, by the way, if I ever had a time machine I’d probably go back and play all over again. I mean, who wouldn’t want to? You’ve got Williams Electronics’ Defender — totally a blast if you’re into old-school arcade vibes. And then there’s GoldenEye 007 from Rare. I think it’s like, if you played this, you basically had the coolest sleepovers. No kidding, the multiplayer on that one was legendary.
Quake by id Software also made the cut. I swear, it’s like the granddaddy of online multiplayer games — if you didn’t get fragged in a few seconds, did you even play? And Tamagotchi. Honestly, if you didn’t frantically try to keep that virtual pet alive during boring classes or family dinners, were you even there in the 90s?
These four champs were picked from a list of 2025 nominees. And, wow, that list! Age of Empires, Angry Birds, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare… It’s like a greatest hits of “who stole my weekend?” contenders. And there’s Frogger, which makes me think of squished frogs and stressful road-crossing. I guess it’s iconic in its own way.
The Strong Museum (yep, they announced this stuff) said these games really changed the game — pun absolutely intended. Icon status, longevity, all that jazz. Quake got a nod — this isn’t its first rodeo with The Strong since Doom was already in there, back in 2015. Gotta love that id Software magic.
Backtracking a bit here, but why these four got picked: it seems like the judges had their reasons. And frankly, if they didn’t include GoldenEye, I’d have had words. Wild thought, right? But maybe not. Anyway — and here’s a fun fact — since 2015, like 49 games have made it into this hall of fame thingy. Last year they included games like Asteroids, Myst, Resident Evil. Games that still give me flashbacks.
But yeah, that’s the scoop. A throwback to some iconic games that defined eras and melted countless joysticks. Or whatever. Crazy how some pixels can leave such a big mark, right?
