This gave me a flashback to a memory I haven't accessed for 25 years. I used to have American neighbours who had a NES and all the US games that weren't available in the UK. They would come to mine and play my Commodore Amiga, I would go to theirs to play motherfucking Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers. So on the sessions at mine, I would tamper with the AV cables so that the Amiga didn't appear to work, then have to say "guess we'd better go to yours and play Chip N Dale!"
only problem with today is that now since kids are getting exposed to technology earlier and earlier they are getting better with it. lets just say today's kid will probably outgrow this trick quick

Classic big bro move.
One of the earliest "life hacks."
