I feel like with older games they were marketed more for the "Challenge" than the fun factor. Older games in arcades or on older consoles never felt like they wanted you to win or you were even supposed to win. The game over screens made you feel like shit and the concepts never felt like they were supposed to be inviting. This is in contrast with newer games where it's basically wish fulfillment and they're made in a way to where anyone can beat them. The 90s were the awkward midway between the two where they wanted to seem edgy and challenging but also zany and fun. That's probably why it was my favorite decade for video games.

Also I just realized I kept my name on here from a thread over at /co. Hopefully that doesn't piss people off over here.
