Reminder that Loco Bandito by Mike Matei is a thing.

Reminder that he tried his absolute HARDEST for YEARS to report, copyright claim and remove any trace of his cringy ass Elmo and Gadget videos from the internet, which only makes them more hilarious.

Reminder that Mike Matei fucking posted on /vr/ and spammed a thread with the lyrics of the AVGN theme song so it could reach bump limit because some people exposed the shit he was doing at Reddit as the cinemassacre subreddit moderator.
Also, the whole thing about Mike dating Erin, and Joe from Game Sack getting salty is too funny.

How is that quote not a fucking meme? Not only is it fucking absurd, it's also coming from a 30 year old guy in his pajamas, alone in his married friend's house, watching a movie for toddlers and making childish jokes that not even a 10 year old would find funny.

There was also a guy claiming to be Mike using a tripcode, but i doubt it was really him... who knows though.

There's no way you can run out of retro games to play.

The issue is not that, it's oversaturation. Even removing first party games you still have a huge ass library of stuff you can play, but deciding is the hard part. You're less inclined to stick with something.

Nah.
For the first years of the PS2, its games were "PS1 games with better graphics".
Can you tell me of one single 3D game you use the D-pad to move in a modern title? Nowadays analog sticks are the norm but you could move with the D-pad in gta 3 and vice city, Jak And Daxter...
The right stick wasn't even used in a lot of games. In The Getaway the right stick doesn't control the camera (nothing does) but instead it controls the car throttle.
There were a lot of classic design sensibilities carried over from the PS1. It all depends on the game.

A retarded argument only believed and spread by those who only know of retro games e-celebs talk about. Not one single person here has played every single game that came out before the year 2000. I highly doubt a single person here has even touched 10% of all the games before the year 2000.

Playing every arcade game that runs under MAME will get you about 2000 titles. Each major console has 200-300 titles worth playing. Calling it at roughly 500 console games a generation, that's 3500 games to play without even dipping into the massive fucking catalogue of DOS and other computer titles, or JP only releases. If you decided to play every retro game at least once for 10 minutes each, and played 8 hours every day, you would go through 48 games a day. With about three months of non-stop gaming without taking a day off, you still wouldn't have touched every retro console and arcade game, just the ones that work under MAME and the major consoles of three generations. And you still wouldn't have played any of these games for more than 10 minutes. Or any computer games, or JP exclusive games.

We will never run out of games to talk about even if the rules never change. Not enough people are willing to try games that haven't been approved or talked about by e-celebs. Hell, not enough people here willing to go try games period, look at all the threads of people asking for others to spoonfeed them recommendations. God forbid you play a game you don't like for 30 seconds.

Go to Romhacking.net, there are a lot of hacks/homebrews there as well as a ton of English translated games that never made it to the US. Download the .ips files and find the original roms for the Japanese or European games using Google then download Flips (Floating IPS, find links on Romhacking.net under utilities) from its original website to merge the .ips and the Rom into a new file. A little work but you will end up with an entire new library of great games to play that you never knew were out there.
