''The Sims'' introduced a basic virtual reality set that Sims can use. Sims will pick up the device, wear it over their eyes, and "explore" the virtual world, usually by waving or moving their arms. When finished, Sims will replace the device in its original location.
 
All Sims, including [[child]]ren, can use the device. While they will move around on the spot, they will not move from the spot they are standing on.

:One of the Electronics items in ''[[The Sims]]'' was the "SSRI Virtual Reality Set", a pair of VR goggles that Sims could wear for fun.

In ''The Sims 2'', there is a basic video game console, the '''Maxis™ Game Simulator''', which can be purchased from [[buy mode]]. When placed next to a [[Television#The Sims 2|TV]], it allows one or two Sims to play. If two Sims play, they will not build [[relationship]] with each other, but each will gain [[Social]], and may taunt each other as they play. Some games will use a different display when two Sims play. The video game console can break, though the chance of this happening appears to be small.

SSX 3 may become unavailable after another game is purchased. While it cannot be purchased from a rack, buying a video game console or computer should make it available again. It is not necessary to keep a video game console or computer in possession for this purpose.

[[Personality#Qualities|Sloppy]] Sims may fail to put the controller away when they are finished playing. A Sim can be told to put the controllers away by clicking on the game console and selecting "Put Away Controllers". Players should note that the controllers may be seen as disposable. When this happens, the controllers will become clickable, and "Dispose" will appear when clicking on a controller. This does not affect Sims' ability to use the game console, but the only way to return the controllers to not being seen as disposable is to purchase a new console. If the controllers are seen as disposable, Sims, particularly Neat Sims, may autonomously attempt to Dispose of a controller. If a Sim starts to dispose of a controller, the player can save the controller by canceling the Dispose action before the Sim starts to put the controller in a trash can or trash compactor.
 After a while a Sim with the name of [[Mr. Humble|Rod Humble]] will deliver a package to your sim which contains a laptop with a preview of ''The Sims 3 video game''. Mr. Humble could be a producer or designer for ''The Sims 3'' game  
 
If ''[[The Sims 2: Freetime|FreeTime]]'' is installed, playing with the game simulator will raise [[Enthusiasm]] for the [[games]] [[hobby]].

''[[The Sims 3]]'' includes a basic game console and VR set. The SimLife Goggles increase fun rapidly and cause many [[moodlets]]. On video game console, as with [[computers]] Sims can be seen playing ''Burnout Paradise'', ''Skate'', "FIFA" (where Arsenal are a team on screen) and ''Madden NFL''. If ''[[The Sims 3: Ambitions]]'' is installed, Sims can also be seen playing "Sim Animals: Africa."
 
The fun gain rate of the video games depends on the TV set. The higher the fun rating a TV has, the faster the fun need will increase.
 
The Console 7 and GUGA JoyToy 3 are added with ''[[The Sims 3: High-End Loft Stuff]].'' They have more games, better graphics, and are more expensive. ''[[The Sims 3: Generations]]'' adds the ExoEdge Gaming System by ReliableWare.
*SSX 3 (default)
*The Sims: Bustin Out
*Simcity 4: Rush Hour
*MySims (freetime)
*FIFA 08 (freetime)
 
The consoles introduced in subsequent expansion packs are a reference to the [[wikipedia:PlayStation 3|PlayStation 3]] (due to its lack of highly acclaimed first party games on launch), the [[wikipedia:Xbox 360|Xbox 360]] (due to the number of AAA violent games) and the [[wikipedia:Wii|Wii]] (peripheral controls).
 
The SimLife Goggles, a [[wikipedia:Virtual reality|virtual reality]] headset, can be used for many things other than gaming, when combined with cheats and/or mods.
