The World Video Game Hall of Fame welcomed its 2025 inductees today. The
Strong National Museum of Play announced that the newest entries are
GoldenEye 007 from Rare, Quake by id Software, Defender from Williams
Electronics and Tamagotchi by Bandai. The four games chosen "have
significantly influenced popular culture and the video game industry," the
museum said in its press release. The other impactful games nominated for
inclusion this year are Age of Empires, Angry Birds, Call of Duty: Modern
Warfare 4, Frogger, Golden Tee, Harvest Moon, Mattel Football and NBA 2K.

The selections may spark some serious nostalgia for those of us who grew up
in the 90s. I remember being deeply envious of my classmates who had little
Tamagotchi pets to care for, and I have fond memories of smack-talking my
friends during late-night GoldenEye matches. Last year's inductees also
highlighted favorites from that era like Myst, Resident Evil and SimCity.
