FYI, retro means something new with inspiration from the past. The word you’re looking for is vintage.
Setting that aside, it’s gotta be the SNES. The games from that generation have aged far more gracefully than the early 3d games of the fifth and sixth generation consoles.
In german this differentiation is only valid for furniture (and sometimes clothing), everything else is always just Retro. 😮💨 People are unwilling to change their minds on that.
I had that discussion often enough to give up and just accept it.
Sometimes neo-retro is used for inspired new stuff, seems to be easier to create new words the to use the correct ones it seems. 😫
Super Nintendo, or SNES. The Mario and Zelda games were great, and so was Mario Kart, but there were loads of great third party games too, like Castlevania and Super Probotector (Contra?).
Would X3TC count as retro? It's from like 2005. I tried playing X4 because fans said it was like X3 but better... But it's not. It's so much more convoluted in all the wrong ways. The menus are trash. The RNG sucks. The AI economy is even worse. X3 is still a way better game.
These emulator box things usually have very poor quality prehaps the evercade might peak your interest and its only a little bit more or a raspberry pi
What a time to be alive. Using a PS3 controller on a Macintosh laptop to play a Nintendo game, all while using board games as a desk. Lmfao I love it op.
I think this is a tie between Bloodborne and Panzer Dragoon Saga. Absolute masterpieces, both. I replay both of them at least once a year, but it would be wonderful to go back in fresh.
Ahhhh UO. Sitting on my llama in my prized neon sandles in front of the bank. Buying a white wyrm from someone and having it rampage because I couldn't control it. Riding around in a boat with a polar bear trying to level up animal handling or whatever because you stopped getting xp if you were stationary too long... Good times lol. I used to have a whole bag of runes to glitch spots in the game 😎
