I would go to the video rental store to play video games.

God, renting games from blockbuster was amazing.

Played so many great GameCube games that way.

Blockbuster didn't exist when we were renting games for the Atari 2600. River Raid!

I spent years playing games on Commodore-64. Suddenly they release the NES, and the first game I saw for it... kinda didn't look super impressive compared to the games I was playing on the 64. My buddy says: "You can rent games now" and I shook my head in disbelief at the whole thing.
