We mention Nibbler briefly

We mention Nibbler briefly in the book. It's one of the few games that has a virtually unlimited scoring potential, right? I think most high score gamers avoid the game because it can pretty much go on indefinitely, making it more an endurance than a skill game, though of course most arcade games require 20 - 40 hours+ of straight play to reach a high score in anyway, which is well beyond most normal people regardless.
