4 Great Gift Ideas For the Avid Gamer


Mar 30, 2018

Approximately 10% of American adults describe themselves as “gamers.” If you’re close to one of these video game-loving individuals, you have probably struggled to find the perfect gift for them because you don’t know what games they like or what console is popular at the moment. However, there are plenty of gifts you can find that your gaming friend, partner, family member, or whatever will certainly enjoy.

Here are some of the best gifts for avid gamers:

  1. Comfy bean bag chairs — Bean bag gaming chairs are perfect gifts for people who spend more than an hour or two in front of a video game each day. Because gaming takes up plenty of time throughout the day, it can be quite uncomfortable sitting in a chair for all that time. Comfy bean bag chairs are much better options than hardwood chairs for gamers.
  2. Gaming headsets — There are headsets that range from $30 to extremely expensive, but you can find deals and great headsets online if you know where to look. Gamers of all ages could use a quality headset to improve their gameplay, and they will surely appreciate the gift.
  3. Gaming gift cards — Believe it or not, gift cards are the perfect gift for gamers. If you’re unsure of what specific gift you should get a gamer friend or family member, getting them a gift card for the Xbox marketplace, PlayStation store, or Nintendo eShop is a great option. These cards typically come in quantities between $10 to $100.
  4. Wireless charging base — Gamers need their phones close to them at all times, but they don’t want to worry about actually reaching for them until they need to access some gaming code or assemble their online squads. Wireless charging bases are great gifts for anyone with a new phone and especially gamers.

Don’t think that just because you don’t understand the gaming community doesn’t mean you can’t give out amazing gifts. If you want to find a comfy bean bag chair for your gaming friend or for yourself (they make great home additions, too), give Sumo Lounge a call today!
