Retro game references in modern media?

Pic related, looks like Peridot is a fan of Ski Free.

I went to Small Foot with my nephew, and it had a pac-man reference in one of the scenes.
He got really excited, "Anon, that's like that game we played at your house!"

Wreck-It-Ralph obviously had a lot, but the trailer had a more subtle one that wasn't in the final game. When Felix inadvertently fixes the bars, the Gradius coin-up jingle plays:

In the 2009 Ghostbusters game, a computer monitor can be seen displaying the end message of the NES port of Ghostbusters.

Not really modern media considering the episode is over 19 years old, but fuck it, never really had a chance on this site to talk about Sonic R being in Malcolm in the Middle

The title screen graphics for the cancelled Atari 2600 Garfield game were reused for the banner of a 2014 strip

It was very shallow (only well-known franchises, even ones like Sonic which never had a strong arcade presence) and even its shallow references weren't correct (Zangief being a villain.)

Didn't the movie imply that Zangief was just Bison's ride to the meeting?

''That’s all my fault. I played a lot of Street Fighter as a young man and Zangief tormented me so much that I don’t care what anybody says, he was bad to me.''

Kinda shitty honestly, if he just assumed he was a bad guy he should've done three seconds of research and if he did it because of personal bias it's no different than throwing Chun-Li in there as a bad guy or even Ryu for that matter if he was playing as someone else

Malcolm in the Middle really captures some small early 00's living room milieu. Even the opening felt so nostalgic ten years ago
