So, your dad’s got game… but you think he could use a little more? You’re in the right place! In this short guide we’ll look at how to identify and shop for a gamer dad this Father’s Day. 

How to spot a gamer dad? 

Does your dad instinctively hold a PlayStation controller with his fingers over the triggers? Does he base his laptop purchases on what sorts of graphics cards they have? Does he mention that Usain Bolt has nothing on Sonic the Hedgehog and talk about his Pac-Man high score the way some other dads recall their sporting achievements? It’s settled. You’ve got yourself a gamer dad. 

What to buy for a gamer dad? 

When it comes to gamer dad gifts, we’ve got more options than a detailed graphics menu. Whether your dad is into retro gaming or modern gaming, you’ll find gifts that he’ll love on our site. Here are a few ideas: 

1. Gaming chairs 

X Rocker Evo Elite

If your dad is doing his gaming sliding halfway down the sofa and developing more chins than a plastic surgeon does, it’s time for an upgrade! 

We have all sorts of gaming chairs that’ll suit him perfectly, whether he wants it to fit into the lounge décor or create a spacey atmosphere in his man cave. We have chairs like the X Rocker luxury Chenille chair, the Menkind exclusive X Rocker Cosmos floor rocker, or the Merlin PC gaming chair which is great for the home office. And, if he wants super cool lights, sounds, and vibration, he’ll love the X Rocker Evo Elite!
