I can understand that it's annoying to see people who are carefree, young and free of excess fat and wrinkles mock your favourite games for having poor input controls and generally poor graphics, but that doesn't mean you have to disparage them all the time. How else are you going to get these people to play your outdated games in the first place?

I don’t want new people playing my old games and driving up the prices. I want LESS people in this hobby you dumb guck.

Your average /vr/ poster has little to no actual appreciation of the board topic as a whole and is only here to post their inflammatory, predominantly negative and above all incredibly narrow, limited opinions.

That better describes modern games.

Why do I care if people play old games? It's not like I'm hoping it'll create more demand for shitty remakes or emulation collections that I won't buy.

I express honest, informed and well experienced opinions. I even used to do it sincerely up until November of last year but now I mix in a healthy dose of post-truth to ruffle some zoomer baby down.

Oh and yes I openly troll yuropoors. I suppose I should own that as a footnote.

I can remember yesterday and the day before, good times, good times, is last week retro yet?
>>5809343
It's hard to believe that individuals feel compelled to post questions like this. It doesn't matter what gets posted anymore, it always devolves to trolling and name calling.

You're either new or delusional.
Either way, I'm jealous of you're ability to enjoy this board as it is now.

I just hate how young people think retro games were meant to be fun. To be honest, they are not games in my eyes, but ART.

This.

We were a lot happier before /v/ invaded and flooded the board with memeshit, constant recommendation threads, and non-stop console war threads for consoles they weren't even alive for. Now OP can fuck off with these threads that aren't about fucking retro games.

>> No.5809475

Go look at the archives from when the board opened and it wasn't full of /v/irgins memeing and shitposting. Notice how much happier we were. You retarded children are the reason we hate you.

Pretty much this. I'm glad we can't talk about PS2/GCN/Xbox games because I get the feeling every title is going to go up an extra $10 on ebay when we can.

People got bitter when it people started to think that /vr/ meant blogging about their childhood instead of talking about VIDEO GAMES. That and the ever increasing rise of le ebic retro youtube fags driving like 90% of the discussion here. Don't forget that we are neighbors with /v/, IE the ones that somehow got paired with /pol/ and collectively decided to shit up the entire fucking site with off topic spam garbage.
I fucking hate this goddamn website so fucking much.

>> No.5809715

threads became less about old games and more about the best way to play old games without ever actually playing them.

It's called shitposting spam. Used to be all that stuff was contained in the CRT general and the occasional flashcart thread. A few years back it started becoming more prevalent due to /v/ invading.

It's called newfags. Anyone who's lurked for longer than a week knows that every fucking answer to these retarded "hurr what's the best way to play X" is either whatever the current emulation option is for that system, or real hardware on a CRT.
IT HAS NEVER FUCKING CHANGED SINCE THE BOARD'S FUCKING INCEPTION
WHY ISN'T THIS INFO (along with my other favorites like what handheld is best for emulation, where to get ROMs, and recommendation lists) IN THE FUCKING STICKY ALREADY
90% OF THIS BOARD'S ISSUES WOULD GO AWAY IF WE HAD A /fit/ LIKE STICKY WE COULD BANISH RETARDS TO

Nobody with wrinkles or excess fat gives the slightest shit what the worst generation thinks. We wrote you off long ago. Now we're just enjoying all the money and land while you stagnate.

For someone who doesn't care you sure seem to whine a lot about zoomers.
It's like right wingers accusing the left of being sensitive snowflakes when they themselves can't take minimal criticism.
