A possible induction into /vr/?

[Anonymous No.6667594]

I understand that I am inviting the schizo, sorry /vr/

With the 9th generation fast approaching this holiday season, Decisions are going to have to be made about one of the most controversial topics on /vr/. As the Playstaion 5 and Xbox SX release this end of 2020, the end of the 8th generation will push the 6th generation into a tricky spot. It sits as a system worthy of being /vr/, being the last of a great line of CRT based systems. It has also been denied /vr/ status in the past, however, despite now being older than the Dreamcast was when it received /vr/ status.

What will the consensus be when we reach 2021, and the discontinuation of these consoles will be long, long past?

I already did, and it seem's there has been a revision to them, which you should well know of. The dreamcast was given /vr/ status after the fact, due to 8th gen. The logic stands to reason that the rest of the sixth generation may follow suit.

/v/ has 6th gen discussion, go there. Let boomers have at least one board. If PS2 is allowed here, everything else, from NES to Genesis, to PCEngine will get drowned out in a sea of only 6th gen discussion, as the demographics on this site are overwhelmingly around late teens to early/mid 20s. This board will be virtually no different from others once you open that pandora's box. People will start clamoring for PS3 and Wii to be discussed here about 5 years from now, as they'll look at 6th gen being posted and say "why can't 360 and PS3 be considered /vr/? They're almost 20 years old". No doubt the same people clamoring for PS2 threads in /vr/ would complain about 7th and 8th gen being allowed here.

Oh well, I'll bite. "retro" is not a time period, it's a comparison to noun.
The 80's are always the 80's, but the 80's couldn't be "retro" in the 70's, because the time hadn't passed. Retro is analogous to the past as "cyberpunk" is analogous to the future

6th gen kids are REALLY bored this friday night/saturday morning.
The pandemic really cucked the youth, they have nothing else to do.

Please rename this board 20th Century Vidya so zoomers can't grasp at semantic straws for their childhood to be allowed

When autists argue they go all in, no matter how obvious the baiting/trolling is.

I strongly disagree.
If the future is eating bugs, biking to go to work downtown, and watching degenerate porn, it's not cyberpunk at all. Yet it's your future.

>6th gen kids
People who played 6th gen as children are now in their 20s and old enough to have kids of their own. They can pass down their 20-year-old consoles to their kids, consoles as old as the Intellivision was when the PS2 came out. I don't think boomers understand what year it is, just absolutely deluded about how much time has passed

The Dreamcast was always released in 1998.

[Anonymous No.6668017]

But it wasn't "retro" until the 8th Generation of consoles were released.

[Anonymous No.6668018]

>>6668016
And it wasn't considered retro before the sticky
