I realize this is a rather stupid topic but I thought, what the heck. So here goes. What are you most likely to be eating when you are playing your beloved Nintendo system? Salty snacks? Candy? Fruit? Veggies? Leftovers? A ham sandwhich? A soda? Icecream? Do tell...

Salty snacks, like Pringles are usually what I eat, with a soda to wash it all down.

Just a Vanilla Coke.

I don't eat anything when I play games since I kind of, you know, need two hands to play games.

SuperLink666 · « **Reply #4 on:** August 11, 2003, 08:05:56 AM »

Grapes and water!

I'm not allowed to bring munchies in the Shrine of the Cube. Unfortunately that room was recently recarpeted so my mummy would be quite...irked if I were to bring down anything that falls apart and can be eaten.

I usually don't eat while playing, but about once every two months, I pig out to a new bought game. And I mean PIG OUT! I'm talking Doritos, Fuzzy Peach, Reese Peanut Butter Cups, Twix bars, and lots of Pepsi. Mmmmm I wish I could do that right about now...

Yeah, you don't want the controllers greasy, so when you are about to beat a boss.....slip...."OH no, Crap, I missed it. I gotta do it over again...crap."

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #9 on:** August 11, 2003, 10:44:44 AM »

Anything that I don't need to hold, because as was posted earlier, you don't want to get your controller all greasy or sticky

true. salty snacks give me greasy hands and force me to wipe them on something first. fruits and veggies normally require that i hold them constantly and unless i'm playing Earthbound on SNES, i need two hands. i sometimes make a meal and try and eat and play in intervals (play, pause, eat, play, pause, eat...). usually though my food is cool by the time i'm done playing.

perferably, i enjoy candy and maybe some fruits i can just pop into my mouth.
popcorn is actually quite good, since i can place the bowl on my chest (if i'm reclined) and suck the popcorn into my mouth.

and yes i have choked a couple times.

hmmm i usually drink stuff...soemtimes ill eat chicken while i game.

Salty rubbish. Not actual rubbish, though. That would be bad.
Then I get my controller all salty and yucky, and it slips out of my hands, flies out the window, and impales an old lady.

True story. I have a pile of old ladies in my backyard with Wave Birds in them. Nasty.

Oblivious · « **Reply #14 on:** August 11, 2003, 03:39:07 PM »

Yeah, salty:BAAAAAAD. I hate playing on greasy controllers. Sometimes I'll play games and eat things like popcorn. Only if it's got alotta cut scenes. Grapes are good too.

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #15 on:** August 11, 2003, 04:11:29 PM »

I usually don't eat, but if my friends and I have gone to Junior's to get some food, I'll usually have a bite to eat. Or in murk's room, when we have tons of snacks. Usually a little bit of candy, cream soda or Sprite, and maybe some sort of chip or cookie. I seldom eat while playing alone, though. But Super Smash Brothers (informal, just for fun matches only) and Super Monkey Ball are usually snack games.

Termin8Anakin · « **Reply #16 on:** August 11, 2003, 05:52:54 PM »

I don't usually eat when i game, since the kitchen is downstairs.
The only thing that really fits the bill for me when i game is probably the most delicious snack ever invented:
Shapes.
BBQ of Pizza.
Bloody hell. I have a couple of boxes of them downstairs

Meh.....I just had some REAL pizza.

And yeah, i don't like my controllers greasy. The only real exception was that multiplayer night with Infernal, Mario, Joeyjojo and myself. We had pizza, doritos, and other stuff. Grease all round.

Two floors between my kitchen and my cube room, but it makes little difference. Usually if I get a new game, I'll spend 5 bucks at my corner store for a big bag of chips and a 2L bottle of pepsi/coke. Pepsi for now tho.

kennyb27 · « **Reply #18 on:** August 13, 2003, 06:53:23 AM »

Gotta' keep my controllers grease free. Grapes and some coke will cut it for me.

GCNMasterX · « **Reply #19 on:** August 13, 2003, 07:07:18 AM »

Any kind of soda (preferably Vanilla Coke)+ Any kind of chips + Candy= One hell of a gamer=No greasy hands=Happy stomach

mmmm...I'm getting hungry now...must..eat...something...bad..for..mee!

KnowsNothing · « **Reply #20 on:** August 14, 2003, 12:26:22 PM »

bah. I eat greasy stuff while playing, and then press pause to wipe my hands, and then play again.

I live off grease, and I will die soon.

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #21 on:** August 14, 2003, 01:28:41 PM »

Heh, sounds like a good life to me

I do eat pizza while playing, if we've just ordered some and it gets there in the middle of a Smash Brothers game, so I have experienced greasy controllers. But like Knowsnothing, I can generally wipe it off on something, so it's not too big of a problem whenever it happens.

For those who fear greasy controllers: Cut whatever you're eating in little pieces and eat it with a fork!

mouse_clicker · « **Reply #23 on:** August 14, 2003, 02:12:37 PM »

Official diet of the gamer: Nacho Cheese Doritos (greatest chips known to mankind) and either a can of Coke or Mountain Dew, whichever you prefer.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #24 on:** August 14, 2003, 02:15:52 PM »

Ranch so beats Nacho Cheese!
