Is it permanent? Should I see a doctor? Maybe it's natural to stop caring about games. I'd rather watch movies, listen to music, read, etc. If this carries on, then I'm stuck with 5 consoles and a few hundred games.
What have you been playing? I've been in situations like that before, where I can never decide on what to play because I have too many games so I just cycle through them, playing a few minutes and then turning off. The solution I've found is to either go to a completely narrative focused game like Monkey Island, Dear Esther, The Stanley Parable, etc., or go to a game that is almost entirely gameplay focused like Dark Souls, Hotline Miami, etc. where the narrative is largely irrelevant.
