Category:Games
What's the difference between this and Category:Games? Obviously Category:Board Games wouldn't fit as a subcategory here, but everything else in the Games category seems like it could fit just as easily here, and vice versa.

- Hmm, yeah, I can't see anything that clearly distinguishes the two categories and unifies their respective contents, with both having a mix of very old and more "modern" games, and also of playable and non-playable games: Category:Games has Slumber Party Games, which is also that category's only game of the non-video type (due to the article excluding Clapping Party), while Category:Video Games has the non-playable Typing Tutor Turbo. I should also note that the Category:Videlectrix Games subcategory also has a mix of playable and non-playable games. The Games category also has the unfinished Homestar Runner RPG, while the Video Games category also has some games menus, but only two (Handheld Games Menu and Scrolling Shooter Games Menu) of the three "playable" (including the Second Games Menu) and five total menus.
- At the very least, everything in the Games category apart from Games and Slumber Party Games seems like it should fit in the Video Games subcategory. DEI
