One of the most shocking and unexpected moments in retro gaming was when Sonic the Hedgehog came to a Nintendo platform.

>> No.6695952

I remember not caring. I grew up with a Genesis, Saturn and Dreamcast, but by the time Sega games moved on to 6th gen consoles like GameCube, I was more interested in other games and franchises like Metroid Prime, Wind Walker, and all that. I used to love Sonic but Sonic Heroes was shit and I realized I was more into fun games than brand loyalty to IPs or whatever. I wouldn't have liked it if it were on Sega's own console. It was a sadder shock that their quality so drastically declined, more than them going third party.

All the rule changes were made quickly after the board was created, now it's been years and years and there's still no changes, despite all the zoomer whining and crying literally 24/7.
Anybody can find the archive of the very first Mod sticky before Dreamcast and 5th gen were allowed? I'm pretty sure it still said "1999 and earlier" (despite 5th gen and DC not being allowed), but I can't find it on the archive. Anyway, that'd explain why 5th gen and DC were allowed, they all fit in the "1999 and earlier" criteria.
Anyway, now that we know Hiro is willing to make more vidya boards, it's pretty possible that /v2k/ will be made at one point.

But the 1999 criteria is important here, not anon's childhood.
Also, the fact the change was made quickly after the board's creation.
Now it's been, what, 7 years? Zoomers complain about 6th gen all the time, yet no rule change, and complete silence from mods.
6th gen threads keep getting deleted, 6th gen beggars get banned, yet the thread about /vrpg/ making fun of zoomers reached 500+ replies bump limit. lol

>> No.6696271

>>6696261
Also while I was browsing around that first day in the archives, seems like there was a lot of discussion surrounding the GBA with only minimal amounts of autistic "1999 rule" posting.

Seems like on the big day GBA was taken to be more appropriate for /vr/ than the DC, if not the entire 5th gen.

>> No.6696275

>>6696271
Not gonna lie, if I HAD to choose, I'd prefer having GBA too than DC, since it's 2D yadda yadda.
But if allowing GBA would make the 6th gen seething even louder, then fuck that, I can live without GBA on /vr/.
In fact, if it was up to me, I wouldn't allow 5th gen here either.

>> No.6696281

>>6696261
I think this part in the sticky is key
> With the release of the 8th generation of consoles, the Sega Dreamcast will now be considered "retro"
It mentions that 8th gen's release was for some reason relevant to the Dreamcast being added. Yes, it's been years of people complaining, but 8th gen has lasted 7 years and we're only getting a new generation at the end of the year. Since 8th gen was mentioned, for some reason, as the reason Dreamcast was added (instead of the year 1999), it stands to reason we should have had no expectation of any new consoles being allowed until the end of the year when the new consoles launch and 9th gen starts.

>> No.6696292

>>6696281
I take it more as "Dreamcast was released before 1999, but still we don't consider it retro.... but OK, now that a new generation of consoles is released, we can make an exception, just for this one console, that came out before 1999".
It's my interpretation. I agree the wording is strange and I don't get why would they choose to mention 8th gen.
The fact 6th gen threads keep getting deleted, but the thread about /vrpg/ and /v2k/ wasn't (and reached bump limit) is also a signal, I think.
At this point, I want SOMETHING to happen, either allow 6th gen on /vr/ (which I think would be destructive) or make /v2k/ (win-win situation), but I'm really sick of the 6th gen begging every single day, every single hour.

>> No.6696298

>>6696275
I dunno where that reasoning comes from, GBA games are nothing like 5th or 6th gen games. But 5th and 6th gen games are actually very similar.

I think by the mods pussing out in 2013 and allowing 5th gen consoles + DC to be discussed (apparently because it was too hard to explain the 1999 rule is actually for fringe cases like SNES games that came out in 1998 and anons were whining a lot that the rule didn't make sense), that's the reason why people make the case for 6th gen home consoles. I think even limited to 4th gen, people would still make the case that GBA should be included due to the similarity in games.

>> No.6696301

>>6696292
/v2k/ would save this board and also give more people a place to talk about their childhood games. I think we can all agree regardless of our position on the rules or what boards we want that PS2/GameCube/Xbox/GBA threads are in an awkward position of not being allowed on /vr/ while it's also impossible for them to survive on /v/ before they drop off and get 404'd.

This post is stupid because the sticky clearly mentions 8th gen as the reason Dreamcast is added. No reason anything else should be added in the years since 2014. 9th gen launches end of this year, that's the only time we can expect 6th gen to be allowed here or be disappointed if it doesn't happen. Have no fucking idea why people keep saying 1999 is relevant at all to Dreamcast being added, the sticky really couldn't be clearer when it says

It's a matter of time and not cause and consequence anon
The rule change became effective with the release of the 8th generation
Even before that change 1999 was already the rule, but there was a lot of discussion about some consoles being considered retro and some were not

Well actually, it was just a poorly written rule that millennials took advantage of to cry about their childhood consoles not being considered retro despite the rule mentioning 1999 as a cut off date.

The original context for 1999 as the cut off date was to ensure discussion of 4th gen games released during the late 90s were still within the rules, the original version of the rule explicitly stated that 5th isn't included. That cause a lot of tears so Moot just gave millennials what they wanted instead of rewriting the rules in a more sensible way.

And 1999 was there from the very beginning anon
The only questions were which pre-1999 consoles were retro and which were not
With a new generation arriving on /v/ the rules of /vr/ were altered to accept all consoles from the agreed timeframe instead of endless discussion of what is and what is not retro inside the same time period

We don't want every single shitposter on /v/ to eventually come to /vr/ to discuss what gachashit they grew up with

It's not going to change and I'm appaled at the idea of adults spending 6 years of their lives holding onto that tiny sliver of hope that someday the 2007 games they grew up with will be accepted here with open arms and be tolerated to kill some NES threads so two autists that care have a place to spam their Guitar Hero or some other bullshit

PSX and Saturn were both initially conceived as 2D powerhouses, whereas N64 was conceived as a 3D powerhouse that was supposed to "skip" a generation. If you absolutely had to start fucking with the Gen V stuff, I would permit the former two consoles here, then put the latter and Dreamcast onto /v2k/.

That said, I really don't like that idea, I'd rather permit GBA/GCN here (I think that permitting GBA discussion would get more support if it wasn't perceived as a "slippery slope" while the GCN feels like a quirky kindred spirit to the Dreamcast) and start /v2k/ for the PS2/Xbox, since those two were arguably the start of contemporary vidya.

Are you retarded? PSX was always meant to be 3D, Kutaragi has gone on record stating he was adamant in making the PSX be a 3D system. You're half-right about Saturn, it could be argued that its 3D isn't true 3D since the "polygons" are just quads that are made up of warped sprites, but the claim that Sega intended the Saturn to not be capable of any form of 3D until very late in its R&D or near its launch is fake and gay.

This is a really lame attempt at trolling, you just kind of come across like a bitch because you just won't admit that 3D wasn't always considered retro.

Sure this is well after 5 minutes after 3D gaming was a thing, but I'm sure you'll also agree that if it wasn't considered retro in 2013, it wasn't in 1999 (praised be that year) either.

Retro gaming culture started around the end of the 5th and beginning of the 6th generation when you started to see developers referencing their legacies e.g. the NES based mini games in Warioware, Segagaga, Namco Museum, etc. So logically games with 2D sprite based graphics will always be considered objectively more retro than the 5th and 6th gen polygonal graphics because that's when the retro culture was born.

That's not how it works, that was a stupid cope you came up with because thought that, since it's impossible to pin point the exact date the first person who said "5th gen is not retro" I'd need to concede that 5th gen was always considered retro.

It's not my fault that you're a fucking idiot who thought I'd be flabbergasted by your retarded non-existent goalposts. Not only was 5th gen not retro in 1999, it wasn't even retro on that calendar date of 18th March 2013.

This sounds right. Retro is basically anything up to December 1994 when the PlayStation came out. Games released after that time are retro but only if they are for the previous generation consoles.

GBA should be allowed to be discussed here. Why? It’s quite simple. The GBA was conceived as a continuation of the SNES design aesthetic. Its library is packed full of 2D games that are redolent of the era prior to the 5th generation (which isn’t true retro btw, but we’ll save that for another thread). Many have accurately described the GBA as a ‘SNES on the go’ or a ‘love letter to the SNES and the original retro gaming era prior to the 5th generation’ and at the time it appealed to the older, more mature gamer who craved the more hardcore gameplay of the classic retro era. Unlike the PS2, GC and xbox, all of these facts make the GBA an undoubtedly retro gaming platform. Furthermore, its inclusion here will bring more intelligent and enlightening discussion as well as improving board culture on the whole.

Reasons sixth gen are retro:
>Last console generation where the Japanese were in the lead game development-wise
>Last console generation classic /vr/ genres like survival horror, JRPGs, and platformers were at the forefront
>Last console generation that many classic /vr/ series were relevant (Goemon, Mana, F-Zero, etc)
>Last console generation that wasn't HD
>Last console generation that wasn't full of DLC
>Last console generation that wasn't dominated by uber-expensive AAA movie games

He complains to the mods like he's the victim. He spams/shits up the board when he doesnt get his way. He replies to his own posts, pretending to agree with himself. He pretends to advocate an off-site venue (/v2k/) by pretending to empathize with people he'd otherwise sperg out at and call zoomers.

It's that GBA, Xbox, Gamecube, and PS2 will never, ever be allowed here.
You can spam shitposts about them all you want, and they will be deleted within a day.
If you think those consoles will be allowed because people would prefer not to have shitposts, you're wrong, because if they were allowed there would be just as many 6th gen threads that stay up than there are 6th gen threads that briefly go up and are deleted now.
If you think deleting your spam posts is difficult, keep in mind that clicking the delete button is easier than it is for you to create a new thread.

Is it time to redefine the "retro" definition?

The 9th generation of consoles is going to be released this year. When the 8th generation of consoles were released, we were allowed to start discussing the Sega Dreamcast on /vr/. At the time, the Dreamcast was released about 15 years prior.

If we're going by that time frame, we should be allowed to discuss games or consoles released up to 2005, which would include the PS2, Xbox, GC, and Nintendo DS.

>> No.6711781

The only reason why the rules are fucking retarded as they are now is because the dipshit userbase whined for 5th gen to be included because they were also released in the 90s. Retro on this board being defined as everything up to the end of the 90s was so any games released on older systems during the 5th generation would still be counted, slack jawed dipshits twisted that to include 5th gen consoles instead and now we have games released post 2000 allowed to be discussed despite that not making sense due to the 90s cutoff. Similar idiots also whined to have the Dreamcast included because it was also technically released pre2000 and that has given 6th genners a precedent to justify their whining for the inclusion of 6th gen consoles as retro. This board was perfectly 100 percent fine with sane logical rules before the 3D autists ruined goddamn everything. Had they just shut their mouths all this GBA spam and 6th genners shitting up every thread would have never happened. Oh well now we have to deal with it forever, good job.

>> No.6711787

>This is true about the Dreamcast.... You said "3D console generations" which is different than the Dreamcast.
The entire 5th gen and Dreamcast weren't initially considered for being 3D majority consoles. As soon as 5th gen was allowed, that already started a precedent that 3D can be retro if they're old enough, at the time it was just using the "1999" cut-off date as a reason for why 3D gaming should be considered retro.
Once that happened it was only a matter of time until the DC would be allowed on the basis that it's a 3D console that was older than many retro consoles were when they were considered retro. The fact it was released in 1999 was a lucky coincidence since clearly moot or mods didn't have any intention of including the DC when that 1999 rule was made.

So actually it's not different, the allowance for 3D consoles was reasonable considering they predated the "1999" cut-off date and that opened the way for the DC being allowed and with the DC being allowed "with the release of the 8th generation" means that the 1999 rule isn't just arbitrary, it's also meaningless now that the DC needed to be quantified with it's "two generation prior to current gen/15 years old is retro" justification

The 1999 rule has been superseded now, it's obsolete, it should be changed and we can stop having multiple troll threads going where people are either flooding GBA in protest and smug dickheads making shitposts mocking "zoomies". If 6th gen gets allowed, I'd say they're would be fewer 6th gen posts than shitposts now.

The only questions were which pre-1999 consoles were retro and which were not

We don't want your 2010's PS2 games here

>> No.6711803

My worry is this.
You bring gen 6 here it might drown out some of the good discussions we have had about older games because gen 6 was the period where videogames went from niche hobby gaining ground to full-blown normality. PS2 was one of the best selling consoles of all time, and for good reason. It had a DVD drive in it at the time when DVD players were expensive and the scale of games exploded in size. Even more so arguably than the disc based era since half of that was all redbook audio and full motion video, the games were very much in that older style until the 5th gen when 3D games became increasingly sophisticated.
It pretty much killed arcades off. Especially since these consoles had a very close parity to the hardware too. Meaning there were less and less home ports of games, especially with Sega folding. 3D RPGs and action games multiplied exponentially.
I lived this era and the one before and ive always seen them as very different things. The only thing both eras really shared was a portion of their ips and people excitedly reading magazines for news and reviews because most people were on dialup or crappy early broadband so it was still easier to grab a strategy guide or cheat book or look in the back of a magazine for tips.
That why 6th gen has never really fit in to /v/ especially since /v/ changes very fast. /v/ is focused on current events and current games. Anything 5 years old or more just struggles to last on there. A lot of slower and deeper discussions just get drowned out by shit posts. Its the reason /vr/ exists in the first place. And some topics of discussion are just too generic for vg.
Its been an awkward limbo for this gen and I've always felt it needed its own home is all though I'm happy for gen 6 have a chance here.
I just worry /vr/ will have less discussions about hardware restoration mods for old consoles, discussions about old source codes and design docs tidbits from I interviews and magazines and stuff.

>> No.6711806

A thing is not more retro just because it has less processing power, that's absurd and the exact soulless argument 6th gen toddlers are bound to come up with.
You can't allow a handheld while at the same time ignoring other console that came out at the same time because their games were made at the same time and with the same zeitgeist.
The GBA outlived the Gamecube for fuck's sake, Nintendo positioned the DS as a "third pillar" and not a direct sucessor like the Wii.
Allowing GBA just because its games "look" more like retro games than PS2 games is the same as allowing discussion of modern indie games on /vr/ just because the devs used some 2D pixel art to mimic the classics.
You either accept the time frame the GBA was a part of or you don't
I do enjoy some 6th gen but as others pointed out we have a nice thing going at a nice pace on this board that allows many different niches to cohabit and it would be completely ruined.
Also 6th gen shitposters have proven themselves to be the most autistic and undesirable members of the board, I had some sympathy for the generation until seeing many threads become flooded with whining and antagonism. You think it will stop just because they got what they want? It'll only get worse as it always do when catering to this sort of people.

You hold a simple date in too much reverence. Late 5th gen plays effectively the same as early 6th gen. The only real difference at that point was visuals and being able to fit more random shit on the screen.
The transition from 4th to 5th gen was far more impactful due to 3D, and if we where meant to have a "real" old game board, they should have cut it there. But they didn't, and the mention of "With the release of the 8th generation of consoles" implies that it will continue with the release of 9th gen consoles.

But hey, maybe it won't, and cutting it off and the special year rule will stick. It's up to the mods

Why is the 8th generation's release relevant if all that mattered was that Dreamcast is a 90s console? You will NEVER hear a coherent answer to this by those who want to keep 6th gen away from this board. They can't admit that the 8th gen's release was relevant to the Dreamcast being allowed, that this implies a sliding and expanding timescale of what constitutes "retro", and that the 9th generation's release can only mean one thing.

All they've managed to achieve here is pissing people off and making them way more resistant to the idea of allowing 6th gen on /vr/. Considering RPG games are allowed to be discussed outside /vrpg/ for some reason it makes their case for /v2k/ much more powerful since /vrpg/ is pointless and /v2k/ related discussion isn't allowed or wanted here and gets drowned out on /v/ and /vg/ which isn't a problem that RPG games have.

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.

The problem I see is that drawing the line between 5th gen and 6th gen is arbitrary and will increasingly stick out as time passes. The most obvious leap in gaming history is between 4th gen and 5th gen. It's just plain weird to be able to talk about say Armored Core for the PS1 but you can't talk about Armored Core 2 as if there's some monumental difference there. It's best if we have a board to talk about consoles up to SNES/Genesis etc., a board to talk about early 3D games (which can continuously expand as more generations come out and whatever means "early" is changed over time), and then the board which covers everything but heavily skews contemporary

Retro isn’t an age, it’s a cultural distinction. Modern gaming is 6th gen and later. Even the primary controllers are identical from that point onward, because the games are largely the same.

5th gen is the last “retro” age, which is a collective term for generations 1-5. You can split the retro gens into the “silver age” or “golden age” or whatever you want. However, those eras are dubbed “retro,” collectively.

The /vr/ cut-off is 1999 and earlier for all time. 2000 and beyond is called /v/.

Pre-HD is a good metric for consoles but not portables. I think a better arbitrary delineation is pre (meaningful) internet connectivity.

The only reason why the rules are fucking retarded as they are now is because the dipshit userbase whined for 5th gen to be included because they were also released in the 90s. Retro on this board being defined as everything up to the end of the 90s was so any games released on older systems during the 5th generation would still be counted, slack jawed dipshits twisted that to include 5th gen consoles instead and now we have games released post 2000 allowed to be discussed despite that not making sense due to the 90s cutoff. Similar idiots also whined to have the Dreamcast included because it was also technically released pre2000 and that has given 6th genners a precedent to justify their whining for the inclusion of 6th gen consoles as retro. This board was perfectly 100 percent fine with sane logical rules before the 3D autists ruined goddamn everything. Had they just shut their mouths all this GBA spam and 6th genners shitting up every thread would have never happened. Oh well now we have to deal with it forever, good job.

here's a pretty clear fucking difference when one medium has far quicker progression in terms of technology and overall culture. Like it or not, stuff like the GBA has a lot more in common with its predecessors than the 3DS or Switch and games that appeared were far more primitive and limited in terms of scope than what gets shat out onto modern handhelds.
Don't worry though, I'm sure you'll just call me a redditor again instead of actually acknowledging that the definitions of 'retro' on this board are dumb as fuck and pretty clearly just mean "whatever was in MY childhood is retro! stop discussing games three years older than it! REEEEEEEEEEEEE!"

In all seriousness realistically anything that doesn't have the trappings of modern systems (eg. online required, DLC, HD resolutions) should be considered retro if it's old enough. The GBA is the same age as the Genesis and SNES were back in the mid-00s and they were considered retro then. unfortunately mods are dingbats who seem to think the forum is going to be flooded with fucking Halo posts or whatever if they include the rest of the 6th gen as if anybody who regularly posts on this forum gives a single shit about some mediocre console FPS. when was the last time Kuru Kuru Kururin got discussed on /v/, huh?

This is obvious bait. No bandwagoner would want to know what it was like. I'll tell you anyway and when you can no longer read through your seething tears just tell me to stop.
A few years into the 00's everything "retro" was largely considered obsolete. There were a handful of freaks who were interested in it but the rest of the world considered it junk. It was common to find a box of random shit at a yard sale or flea market for a few bucks. I have about 200 systems and can't think of a single "retro" one I paid more than a few bucks for unless it was CIB. That likely included controllers, games, and some other random shit. It was common to find boxes of games for a few bucks. I bought a shoebox full of GB carts for $12. PS1 games were 3 for a buck at my local flea market. Same for Saturn, which were fairly common. There was usually some NGCD, SCD, PCE and other random shit mixed in and all the same price. A "CIB" System Card or Arcade Card looks like a CD game so I found a few of those as well. Again, same price. Flea markets in Japan were littered with WS/WSCs selling for less than a buck. I have a whole drawer full of them. Old PCs were literally considered garbage. People would pay you to hall them away. Especially those nasty heavy CRT monitors.
