>Retro gaming is a western thing

but as I said, Japan has had retro shops for decades, Famicom and PC-98 have massive cult following, as well as PC engine and Sega Saturn.
Game Center CX started in 2003. They already have a retro tv show before Youtube was a thing

SNES games also have soundtracks with fast, intense, noisy and grungy tracks.

Anyway, I have no idea how I would have turned out if my vidya experience was different, but I'm really happy with my childhood vidya:

>play Colevo Vision at age 3 or 4
>get a Famiclone at age 5
>get a SNES and a Sega Genesis in the same year at age 7

4th gen idort, can't get better than that... well maybe if I got a PC Engine and a Neo Geo back then I would have been a real noble patrician, but I'm fine as a Sega/Nintendo idort (also a 486 PC).

I don't know how vidya actually affected my appreciation of art, but I guess a lot. Still it would be hard to imagine how different it'd be if I had a different childhood regarding vidya. Maybe not too different.
