I was searching for something for the celebrities playing games thread and came across this. Didn’t want to derail that thread with fictional scenarios so here’s a new one.
Video game characters playing games from the future. I genuinely appreciate that RGG and Lost Judgement carefully avoided anachronic inconsistencies as much as possible.
Disappointingly mediocre video game adaptation of a popular IP giving up on their own game and preferring to play a better adaptation of itself.
The Touryst’s eponymous protagonist playing an arcade demake of the same game studio’s earlier game series.
Video game characters playing a 19th century board game. (I had never realized mahjong was such a “recent” pastime.)
Video game characters playing a damn good game.
Video game with a female given name for a title in which you actually play a dude who regrets banging the eponymous blonde chick he barely knows and distracts himself from his real life problems by playing a game with a female given name for a title in which you actually play as a dude who wants to bang the eponymous blonde chick he barely knows.
One of the earliest examples I can remember of a video game character actually playing a video game inside their game.
Surprisingly difficult to find example of a relatively well known video game journeyman playing one of the few games in which they have appeared.

Spiteful video game sibling defrauding their more successful brother with a game of cards in a gambling establishment of unclear legal status located in a foreign autocratic monarchy.
