#Chess runs on more potatoes then #Uno
Starting notably with the #Atari2600 #nes #snes and the #segagenesis
You could start with the Atari 2600 game, or the nes game and woke up the various consoles. Just so you can say, "I owned and played all retro chess #videogames ."

So I made a discovery. #Chess has more games on more consoles than #Uno did
While the oldest Uno game I knew about were playable on the (original) #gameboy #PS1 and #segasaturn, Chess games go back as far as atleast the #Nes, #Snes, and #Segagenesis
However, I do atleast need an uno game to be playable on a given console, and not having uno, or some Uno knockoff might determine whether I buy a given console.
For fun I'm gonna look into the history of chess games on game consoles similarly to how I did with Uno games, here: https://urusai.social/@Rob200/114413411806369697
Mein Ork Wizard in #Daggerheart ... spielt gerne Schach.
Oh god, that final game too... Thalia winning an ultra stressy comeback on time.
I think that just took some years off my life.
I love the #ChessMasters show but gosh, the latest episode took my stress levels through the roof!
I only managed the first puzzle only in the puzzle challenges, and David Howell dominating three contestants at once got my blood way up.
'I made a website. It’s called One Million Chessboards. It has one million chessboards on it.
Moving a piece moves it for everyone, instantly. There are no turns. You can move between boards.'

The Chess Federation won't allow men and women to compete against each other. My mum says it's because the men are already embarrassed that they have a small penis. They don't want to admit that they have a small brain as well.
