I've passed many hours on flights playing with other passengers who remembered when video games were simple.

Don't get me wrong, I love my modern games but sometimes you don't want to have to read a 100 page manual just to have a little fun.
You can pick up these games at Sams Club in the Atari Arcade compilation for $9.95
