Um... anything that got fewer than half a million sales I guess.

Never understood the thought process behind being a hipster.

Because mainstream games are too mainstream.

Probably games like Snakes of Avalon (Google that ****) and Rougelikes. what I mean is that for them being indie its not good enough., they have to be difficult to understand and free too. They are also into "importing" Japanese games too, Specially Dreamcast's, and by importing I mean pirating and "fixing" them with english patches.

My guess is that most hipsters don't even play video games... Thought they were more into weird music and literature.

I'd think that hipsters would be playing a game on the atari that got fewer than a million sales.

This.

Usually when I run into hipsters, they are talking about gaming on an NES/SNES. Sometimes an N64.

It'd have to be something playable on either their iPhones or MacBooks.

I'd list a couple of games, but talking about them on a public forum would immediately cause hipsters worldwide to drop them for being too mainstream.

something oozing geek chic, maybe a classic used PS2 game or their Nintendo console they rescued from home before their mother threw it in the dumpster, it's got that retro appeal

Wouldn't that be more of a nerd? There's this one game shop I go to from time to time, where you can get old games and systems... I see people buying things like the NES, but they honestly don't meet the hipster stereotype (at least what I've heard). They look like normal gamers to me...

A more recent hipster game would probably be Catherine.

Catherine is pretty hot btw, both of them.

Anything that was released before the year 2000. Maybe 2001, but that'd be pushing it for them. They don't touch anything new and think they're cool for being "old school."

Hipsters probably like the play the Atari Jaguar and the Phillips CDI.

Right now it would be Xenoblade, right? The amount of fuzz on these boards for a game that Nintendo doesen't even want to release in NA... thats gotta be a hipster thing.

Hahaha.. That was good. I would say Portal. I run into so many guys in real life saying the Cake is a lie, and then when someone says "what?" they just go "Oh you wouldn't understand! It's from a game you probably haven't heard of.." I kid you not, that is what they say. It's aggravating that they fit the clique so much..

The biggest hipster gaming moment I ever had was when I pulled out my 3DS to show off some of my music software (Korg DS-10 and some DSiWare Titles) at a noise show (noise music is hipster ground zero) and some other guy there had Korg DS-10 too. So maybe hipsters don't play games but they use their consoles to make music... People seemed to get a kick out of 3D Excite Bike though.
