The car would, I won't.
Let's make our own opportunity. Tow Camdalf down with and then you can imbibe in the local stiggery and off-roading.
i've told you there is space on the other trip if you want to come. we have a new super secret place with 3 houses "next" to each other....so everyone should get a bed
My guess would be Intellivision, which was a pretty big upgrade over the "graphics" of the 2600 and I think the first real competitor for it, iirc. I still have mine somewhere in my basement.

As a youth, the Atari 2600 was king, and I dearly loved mine. At the "arcade" I grew up in the heyday of stuff like Asteriods, Pac Man, Mario stuff, Galaga, etc.
Currently, I own a PS3, purchased for my kid. I have a few games. My basic problem with gaming is commitment/accompanying time suck. Most games are pretty complicated, and require some major time investment to "get good at." I'm not willing to do that....there always seems to be some sort of real life project that takes precedence. Maybe if I was stuck in a hospital bed or something? I think these "driving rigs" are pretty cool and I would consider that, but I don't really have any space.
There's nothing wrong with leisure, and if that's what relaxes you more power to you. The "old man yells at cloud" comment was directed at jobless 16 year olds on their 14th hour of video gaming amidst a pile of UberEats Taco Bell wrappers.

Back in the day there were these things called newspapers that were delivered door to door by prepubescent like me. I prob made like $10-$15 a week. I remember being so pissed because I paid $149 (in late 70s money) and within a year they were selling for half that...a year later a third. I disremember what came out that caused the price dip, probably ColecoVision or Sega Genesis.
Later, I had all the Nintendo systems as they came out. N64 was the big game changer. It was to play in 3D after starting with single screen on the Atari and then everything else having been side scrollers. I was really into the Madden series and Zelda.
I didn't buy anything else until my kids were old enough to play, but then we got the Playstations as they came out and eventually the XBoxes. I dabbled in all of them. Played the campaigns on most of the Call of Duty iterations. My favorite was World At War. I played only very sporadically for quite a few years. But every once in a while something would grab me, and I'd play it all the way through. WItcher3, Fallout 4, Dark Souls. The last thing I played was Zelda: Breath of the Wild, 200 hours worth. Now I am dormant again.
TL/DR I may be but I love video games and I was there at the beginning......

No idea if there's off-roading or not, but towing Camdalf behind a would be a 5/7 experience.
