We're back with another dank batch of nerdy content for every kind of gamer. Whether you're stuck at work daydreaming about firing up your favorite console or just in the mood to chuckle at some funny gaming content, we've got you. 

If there's one group who have managed to thrive through the global pandemic, quarantine, and social distancing, it's gamers. While most have struggled to adapt to new and awkward methods of remote socializing, gamers simply retreated into their established Minecraft realms and WoW parties and carried on as usual. For both seasoned and noob gamers alike, we've got a bunch of nerdy memes for people who'd rather sitting in front of a console or gaming PC. 

If you're a dedicated gamer who loves dank memes, put down that controller for a minute because we've brought the best of both worlds together with these memes and funny gamer moments. Whether you're into PC gaming, consoles, or you still bust out the '98 Game Boy, we've got funny content for every kind of gamer out there.

@CyberpunkGame hit Twitter with another cursed yellow message this morning after Sony pulled the digital game from the PlayStation Store in light of negative criticism over poor performance. Anyone who already bought the digital version of the game can get a refund from PlayStation, but many are still sad, outraged, and disappointed with CD Projekt for poor management of the release. Both PC & console gamers used this as an opportunity to lean into their respective sides—PC users smugly tweeted about how well the game runs for them since Cyberpunk was initially developed to be a PC game, while console enthusiasts criticized CD Projekt for failing to optimize the game for consoles after eight years of development. Others have expressed their sympathy for the developers, who are no doubt under a lot of stress. And of course, some are just memeing about it.

We've put together some highlights from the thread to give you a sense of the heated arguments that this announcement has sparked, but you can read the full, ongoing thread here. 

Gamers rise up! No matter what your preferred console is, it's a pretty exciting time for gamers. Even if you haven't been able to get your hands on the new PS5 or Xbox Series X yet, new games like Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Yakuza: Like A Dragon, Hitman 3, and the Prince of Persia: Sands of Time remake will be available for PC and older consoles. If you're stoked about gaming as much as we are, you'll likely get a kick out of these relatable memes made by gamers for gamers.

On this day in 2006, Nintendo released the first Wii ever to gamers all over the world. The motion sensing tech may not impress many today, but anyone who had a Wii as a kid will remember how excitingly novel (and awkward) it felt to play Wii Sports with the family for the first time. Sadly, last year the Wii era came to an end after Ubisoft released the final game for the console. 

We've collected some nerdy Wii memes from over the years to commemorate the day and hope our fellow gamers enjoy them as much as wii did. 

Finally, some good 2020 news! Today the Xbox Series X hit the shelves and the new PS5 is just days away from its release. For months the internet has been going bonkers memeing about preorders, launch announcements, and cheeky jokes about hardware design. Whatever your console of choice is, this week is a very exciting one for gamers. We've gathered some of our favorite silly memes about the highly anticipated consoles to get everyone even more hyped. Who will win? Mini fridge or wifi router? 

If you want a system that has a huge breadth of games, most of which you'll never play, then look no further!
