So...everything retro has been discussed already.

Now what?

well since we did all that we may as well pretend this isn't another dreamcast spammer thread.

>> No.1144182

>>1144165
The Dreamcast

>> No.1144190

We have to raise the limit for what is considered as retro sooner or later. No need to hurry, though. We barely have scratched the surface of the library of all games which where released before 2000.

>> No.1144192

Do we start including 6th gen after the new generation kicks off? Has anyone thought that far ahead?

>> No.1144204

Since no one was listening, everything must be discussed again.

>> No.1144216

AND IF WE'VE DISCUSSED IT ALL AGAIN

If the Dreamcast isn't retro because it kicked off the 6th gen, then the 8th gen started already with the WiiU.

>> No.1144234

I don't even like the dreamcast

No it fucking hasn't. If you think everything retro means Zelda games before 1999 or Chrono Trigger you might have a point. But it doesn't.

Go ROM exploring, retards.

Considering that the moment we do, the Halofags will start spamming again, I'm going to say that no, we don't have to.

>> No.1144264

We dig into obscurity. But not develop objectively shit taste in the process like a chunk of /mu/.

Less arguing, more posting about games we personally enjoy.

Wasn't this board originally made to be a place to discuss nostalgia? We've run out of a lot of shared nostalgia, so now we need to put out some individualized nostalgia and let the rest of the board know about some gems they may have missed.

It's the same threads just recycled. Most of which could easily be stickied.

Anything else is either deleted or modded to fuck and back because someone gets butt hurt from opinions and reports it.

Like I said, go ROM exploring.

You guys ever do that? Just hit up a ROM site, choose a letter and just go down and download everything that looks interesting.

Or head over to ROMhacking.net and dig through their translations. There are a TON of neat little games that get translated that go under the radar.

If you treat /vr/ as more than just a nostalgia board, you find so much to do and talk about. I doubt most people here have even scratched the surface of retro gaming.

Well, uh, I never claimed to have scratched the surface. Notice how I'm not the one ITT lamenting how there's nothing else to talk about?

>> No.1144317

I have pretty broad taste, there are so many interesting retro games out there, I could play 20 years and not finish every game/discover new stuff.
There will always be something new to talk about and I would be strongly against moving the limit for what is "retro", at least not in the next 10-15 years.

Implies superiority which implies you have.

>Implies superiority which implies you have.

No it doesn't. I don't know if you noticed but I am "most people"

The sentence implies that most people here probably haven't, and I don't care to speak for everyone, particularly someone who has actually scratched the surface.

You're assuming way too much shit right now.

I don't understand why playing a game you like in an emulator makes you a scumbag. Is Ocarina not properly emulable yet or something? I play games I like in emulators all the time. Who reserves emulators for games they don't like?

So know you're equating

Okay, dude, it's time to stop. You tried reading between the lines and failed at it.
