The Importance of a Video Gaming Museum

Video Games have not had an extensive history, but they are definitely a look to future changes in our modern world. Already there've been so many effects on pop culture, internet culture, and even our day to day experiences that people are concerned whether video games are truly good for us or not.

There are many aspects to be explored in the world of video gaming, from their effects on us to their monumental achievements. For starters, some video games as of recently have been quite successful profit-wise. Some have even been more successful than movies.

In addition, it has inspired many one-liner jokes and phrases for use on the internet, from "All your base are belong to us" from the classic Zero Wing video game to the numerous characters that appear in everyday society, video games has been the cause of a lot of new ideas and elements in our daily lives.

Music, too, has been changed somewhat for video games because it involves writing music for a changing situation based on what the player does. It has also provided a lot of music during story sequences, as well as very famous tunes that even those who don't play the games know. Many people know music from the classic mario and zelda games, but haven't ever played the games themselves.

There's also controversy over the legitimacy of video games, content deemed inappropriate for younger players, and other things that make video games a heated debate in some ways. Overall, there's a lot of material for making a museum to showcase this clever pastime.
