Tsumi-gē
Recently, the number of tsumi-gē (積みゲー) in my room has been increasing.
Tsumi-gē is a coined word that combines tsumi/tsumu (積み/積む - meaning "to be piled") and gē (ゲー - meaning "game"), referring to games that you have bought but not played and are piled up.
As you become an adult, you have more money but less time and energy to play games, so the tsumi-gē phenomenon is more likely to occur.
Incidentally, books that you have bought but not read are called tsun-doku (積ん読).
Here, doku (読) means "reading," and tsun-doku is a wordplay that implies the phrase tsunde oku/tsundoku (積んでおく/積んどく - meaning "I pile up something").

積みゲー
最近、「積みゲー」がどんどん増えてきました。
「積みゲー」は「積む/積み」と「ゲーム」を組み合わせた造語で、「購入したもののプレイをせず積んだ状態となっているゲーム」のことを指します。
大人になるとお金が手に入る反面、ゲームプレイする時間や体力が減るため、「積みゲー」のような現象が起こりやすくなります。
「購入したものの読まずに積んだ状態となっている書籍」のことは、「積ん読（つんどく）」と呼ばれます。
「読」は "reading" を意味しますが、それだけではなく「積んでおく/積んどく」にも掛かった洒落た造語となっています。
