What counts as pre-normie vidya? Anonymous Sat Dec 18 09:21:40 2021 No.8432205 [Reply] [Original]

I'm doing a secret santa this year, and one of the person's interests is 'pre-normie' vidya, what games would fit into this category? They like the yakuza series from what i've gathered - Asking here as my experience with gaming is limited to recent rpgs, visual novels and LiS lol

>>	Anonymous Sat Dec 18 15:25:59 2021 No.8433108 >>8432205 vidya has always been for normies the Atari 2600 sold amazingly well the NES is still a byword for vidya for some people, like "regular Nintendo" SNES and Genesis were normiecore PS1 and N64 were normiecore the list goes on

>>	Anonymous Sat Dec 18 15:31:01 2021 No.8433126 >>8432205 How old is this person you're shopping for? That would probably help.

>>	Anonymous Sat Dec 18 15:32:19 2021 No.8433130 >>8432205 Normie isn't an era, but the older you go the less likely young/normal people will have played it unless it's some Mario/Zelda/Pokemon shit.

>>	Anonymous Sat Dec 18 16:15:36 2021 No.8433253 >>8433126 >How old is this person >person's interests is 'pre-normie' vidya Surely not older than 12.

>>	Anonymous Sat Dec 18 16:16:41 2021 No.8433258 >>8433253 Certainly. I've never heard "pre-normie" before.

>>	Anonymous Sat Dec 18 17:12:42 2021 No.8433397 >>8432205 just buy him a game with mecha in it and be done with it

>>	Anonymous Sat Dec 18 17:33:10 2021 No.8433456 Probably pre Atari 2600 since that's the beginning of normies buying consoles so I think that leaves magnavox odyssey?

>>	Anonymous Sat Dec 18 18:32:35 2021 No.8433614 >>8432205 The Yakuza series has become normiecore during the PS4 generation. It's Sega's biggest franchise outside of Sonic.

>>	Anonymous Sun Dec 19 04:32:20 2021 No.8434810 there's literally zero reason to play the ps2 originals

>>	Anonymous Sun Dec 19 04:34:15 2021 No.8434815 >>8434810 Except for the soul factor, that is

>>	Anonymous Sun Dec 19 04:45:17 2021 No.8434840 >>8432205 Video games were more "normie" than they can ever hope to be now in the days of Pong and Pac-Man. Educate yourself.
