Not unless you're talking about the best emulator, emulation device, controller to use while emulating, filters to use while emulating, drink to drink while emulating, waifu in a game you're emulating, etc.

Retro is currently Pong / Atari (Golden Age) to Saturn / PlayStation / N64 (Silver Age). An exception is made for Dreamcast because it was released during the 32 bit era and left the market so quickly.

Generally a "retro" product must be at least 15 years old.

Not really. Even a port on a newer console shouldn't allowed if it's on a console released after 1999.

No-one gave a fuck either until people figured out they could make threads about newer games under the pretense of "it's a port". There was a thread about some 2010 pacman remake on steam which people were defending because "pacman is retro, right?".

Faggots who ended up ruining the board for everyone.

1. gba was released 2001, three years after dreamcast('98)
2. its sixth gen handheld
3. unlike dreamcast it didnt die quickly, it still got games way after DS came out(2008, DS came out in 2004)
4. generally its not considered to be retro handheld, even though it has tons of snes/genesis ports(by that logic other sixth and later gen consoles are "retro" too)

For me "retro" is not a time period but more the aesthetic of those old games, I see the first Atari pixels, 8 bit, 16 bit and low polygon stuff like the N64 and PS1 as retro. More modern systems will never be "retro" Personally I wouldn't see the Dreamcast as retro but it slipped through because its date. Though the time still has a meaning but only in context, like a modern indie game made to look like this style would not be retro, but imitating retro.
Now since the GBA is like a better SNES but not close to an N64 and therefore looks not much different than emulating the SNES on a handheld I would see it fitting as retro.
People are worried that this would open Pandora's box though as it breaks the magical 2000- barrier and soon people come with "How about the PS2? etc.
After this definition that is pretty much no danger, the PS2 will NEVER be retro, its graphics will look dated but still modern and more realistic. I guess they will have to find a new word for these neo-retro systems in the future.

tl,dr: GBA OK imho fam

And it's really not like the SNES could replicate games like Lady Sia or Maya the Bee. Maybe with the SFX chip, but that's something entirely different. And let's not forget the GBA had a lot of 3D games, like 007: Nightfire, Duke Nukem and Doom, which runs way better than the SNES version.
The GBA is in another league.

I still think the modding here is don't by way of number of reports/severity of reports. The porn posted here not long ago was quickly deleted, likely for being reported as porn on a SFW board. I wouldn't be surprised if a totally ontopic Super Mario World thread were reported by 20 people it too would get deleted. Pure speculation, of course, but it would explain some modding inconsistencies. I still wonder whether or not we have a dedicated mod or janitor and, if we do, if they really know much about the rules and subject matter covered.

256×224 vs 240 × 160 is really not much less and the GBA is a fucking handheld you retard.
512 colors on-screen compared to 128 of the SNES.
3D way ahead of the SFX2 chip.
And the sound was quite good once you used good drivers, good samples and a good composer.

It does run better, but you'll want to turn shadows off if you don't want lots of slowdown.

You can't do this in the port of Doom 2 but it makes up for it by being a very faithful port, as opposed to the first which cuts like 30-40% of the original content (it cuts the spidermind and cyberdemon, as well as their levels, the final level is replaced with E2M9)

When people talk about classical music nowadays, they still talk about Mozart or Beethoven. The Beatles or Elvis are not classical music even though an arbitrary amount of time has passed since they performed. That's because classical music isn't defined by how long ago it was composed, but rather by a certain underlying zeitgeist, conventions and philosophies that shaped music in a certain period.

It's exactly the same case with retro video games. When you ask "WHY DOESN'T /VR/ WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE ORIGINAL HALO? IT'S PRETTY OLD", you're doing the equivalent of barging in on a classical music club and asking why don't they want to talk about The Ramones even though it's been 40 years already.

Yeah, classical music is a genre. It's called classical music because it has it's own rules, it's not because it's supposed to be old. You're right about it. But retro is a relative term, it changes and evolves as time passes unlike your example. The retro of today wasn't retro 10 years ago, etc.

DC fag here.

We knew that people would complain about them not being allowed. Partially because they were allready complaining before the sticky was changed to allow the DC. But mainly because the actuall issue was that we wanted to either:
>A. remove the 1999 rule for consoles, and just have the cut off be 5th gen
>B. remove the 5th gen rule and have the cutoff be 1999
But unfortunately the mods did neither of those things, and now we still have the issue of contradictory rules that give gba/ps2/gamecube/whatever fags a foothold to shitpost. Even if that foothold is not a valid one, since the DC was the ONLY system to fall into that grey area.

Regardless, it wasn't that we said it would lead to them complaining, but that it wouldn't lead to them being allowed. Its been what, year and half, two years now? And guess what, they're not allowed yet, just as we predicted.

You mean the console with Gamecube style graphics and online connectivity that set forth pretty much every "next gen" convention is a GREY AREA? Give me a break. The only semi-valid reason for it to be retro is the port argument, which would be just as valid for something like the GBA.

A gen cutoff can't ever be the only criteria for retro in this board because of PC. I agree with >>2757461, the exclusion should roll over depending on the year, and it's absurd to think people are against this. We'll all have a dead board within years at worst and a board for hipsters who want to "discover (overhyped) retro games" at best, we're already both dying and being overrun with e-celeb/"I just started FFVII/CT what am I in for" style threads. That's what happens when you run out of things to talk about. Our board will just grow stagnant and die.

Progressively including years would allow us to talk about 2000 PC games (remember the Sims 1 thread where pepole would STILL go "NOT RETRO"?) which barely even work in modern PCs but are somehow considered modern, hip and forbidden for /vr/.

Or, you know, don't change anything, but don't bitch and moan when /vr/ becomes a dead board for teenage hipsters.

PC games are a special case. It was discussed in some depth in one of the previous troll threads. Treating it like a platform won't work because even PC games released today still use the same architectures as PC games from 20 years ago. Going by OS wouldn't work either, since if you tried hard enough you could probably at least get semi-modern games to run on the likes of Windows 98. Going by year works, but for simplicity it has to be the same year as the console cut-off, otherwise certain people would endlessly point out that "x game released on PC in 2002 is retro, but PS2 released in 2000 is not retro". Give these fuckers an inch and they'll take a hundred fucking miles.

If we can have a near omnipresent thread about fucking CRT tvs then I think it wouldn't hurt to have a GBA general too. It's funny how nobody complains about the thread that has literally nothing to do with video games and where nobody actually talks about games, and the very same people are throwing a little temper tantrum at the mere thought of actually talking about games that are so very slightly newer than their autism allows. Like it or not, the board is stagnating and we could do with some fresh topics of discussion, if even just to piss off the most poisonous elements of this board. If we can talk about fucking televisions here without disruption then we should be able to talk about actual games on the GBA.

CRT thread doesn't break rules.
>Try to keep it /vr/-related
But any GBA thread does.
You can have a GBA thread on /v/, you can use /6gg/ for GBA discussing. But you can't have a GBA thread on /vr/.
/6gg/ exists like 3 days. Why does it keep dying?
As for now, I'm almost sure that demands of allowing GBA on /vr/ is just a cover for shitposting.

>>	Anonymous Sun Oct 25 09:04:25 2015 No.2758889 Personally I'd like a place to discuss gba, so if you dweebs could handle it I think /vr/ would be a nice place for that.

>CRT thread doesn't break rules.
Generals do and yet they get a free pass because mods are fucking morons. People claim that /vg/ is too fast and that the threads would die out too fast but the unfortunate truth that no one wants to acknowledge is that they die out because no one wants to talk about them enough to keep the threads alive.

And yet here this thread is.

/vr/ doesn't give a shit about rules. It breaks more of them than /v/ does. All you kids crying because people want to bring more topics to a board where all you do is talk about Doom, some old jap guy and how expensive games on eBay are can fuck right off. It's your bullshit, yours, that ruined this board.

>>	Anonymous Sun Oct 25 09:20:40 2015 No.2758918 >>2758915 You can leave if you don't like it. Posting 6th gen threads will only get you NOT RETRO replies.

Actually, as the rules clearly state, this board is for the discussion of classic or retro games. Not televisions, actual games. Not like it matters anyway, the rules can always be changed. I think /vr/ is an ideal place to talk about GBA games too. Obviously there's not as much interest on the other video game boards for GBA games or really anything from that gen, they're way more concerned with newer games. This board is the of only board where the posters care enough to have any real discussion about it.

And seriously, anyone like you who defends the tv threads should really have no say in the matter. It's pure hypocrisy. I don't even mind the threads being here though. Know why? Even though they don't meet the strict criteria of the rules, they aren't really going to get the level of discussion they deserve on any other board, just like GBA. I could tell you to fuck off to /vg/ or even /g/ to talk about it, but unlike you I'm aware that there's not as much interest there. Also, I don't have autism, which helps.

>>	Anonymous Sun Oct 25 09:22:27 2015 No.2758921 >>2758918 And doing that will get you banned for shitposting. 6th gen is mod approved. Don't like it? Should have cleaned up your board a long time ago then.

It's like you don't understand.

This board is self-moderated.

There is no mod on /vr/, random mods delete some posts here and there here, but only if they break major rules (like posting NSFW on a blue board, etc). When mods get reports for things like blatant console war shitposting or 6th gen they don't care, because they don't even brose /vr/, they don't know the culture here.

We have the sticky with the rules, and we follow them, because we know that the moment Halo is officially allowed here, it's the end of /vr/.

Like it or not, you won't be able to discuss 6th gen here. You will get NOT RETRO and that's it.

Try reporting the NOT RETRO posts, mods won't give a fuck, as you already said.
