6th gen chads!
/vr/ is finally opening their borders and allowing us to immigrate onto their great board. Lets have a celebration thread.
6th gen chads!
This will be a beautiful shitstorm.
its a feedback thread, its not a rule yet
>Mods
>Reading feedback
yea just look at those 4 new dead boards.
Nothing 3D belongs in talks about retro.
Virtua Racer is not retro?
They're all better than Zig Forums. Your point?
So people have seriously not regarded 6th gen consoles as "retro" for at least 5 years already?
'Retro' should define anything that's at least 20 years old, maybe more. I don't feel comfortable calling GameCube and PS2 games retro because it makes me feel old.
mods love shota confirmed
they're not retro. in a few years you tards will be calling the 360 retro even though its only last gen.
How is this so hard? I thought retro was anything before the turn of the millenium?
Just look at the general on /vr/. People are really trying to fight it.
It'll basically kill of any old game discussion, but I don't even really care since I don't play games that old anyways.
Time to grab the popcorn and watch the boomer rage
imbecile
When N64 came out, NES was only 11 years old but was definitely regarded as retro then. At this point, Gamecube is almost 20 years old, yet it can't be considered retro?
The only reason vr still exists is its board tan being so fucking awesome
Nothing after FAMICOM is retro, so that board is useless anyway.
thats autistic, just allow all ps2 games
what is it
>having to sift through three hundred Dante poopy cowabunga hack and slash threads to find any actual retro games
MARIO IS A NIGGER
great, /vr/ is dead now
What's the fucking point of having a retro board if you'll keep pushing the older ones further back?
Are we getting /vrr/- Retro Retro games ?
Just make one board per generation.
Where is the new board, abib?
it's right there are you fucking blind stop shouting
Looks like you spoke too soon.
>letting snoyggers in
F they will destroy the board
lol wgat
Why are boomers so autistic?
They were already allowed in weren't they? PS1 has been considered retro for a while.
Bad idea. Mods have no clue how much PS2 and especially Gamecubekiddies will flood the board.
Honestly, I think 6th Gen should be the cutoff point for what games can be considered "retro", before the HD era came upon us. I would end up considering Wii to be retro as well, if not for the sake that it didn't have HDMI output. Things start to get hazy once you start trying to define Xbox 360 and PS3 games as "retro", and especially in another decade or two when people will try the same for Xbox One and PS4. There needs to become a new term created for those two eras, so the board doesn't get flooded with people talking about their nostalgia for CoD:MW2.
N64 toddlers already flooded it.
>tfw the Xbox 360 came out 15 years ago.
>Uh you can’t talk about that game! It was ported to US in 2003 you stupid fag!
>Woah? You want to talk about a game released in January of 2002? Too fuckin bad buck! Pruned!
I use more than I use Zig Forums, it's definitely not dead and is the better board. You actually get honest opinions from people who have been here for a decent amount of time instead of underage twitter zoomers like you. Zig Forums is basically /pol2/ with even more retards. Kys nigger.
for today's special performance instead of creating a new board they decided to kill an old one
More like kill an old board and spawn a new board at the same time. It is the cycle of life, boyo.
For now, I'd split it into Eras:
>Pre-Crash - Anything pre-video game crash
>Post Crash - NES, SNES, Genesis and the like
>3D - N64, PS1, Awkwardly fitting Saturn in there, Dreamcast, Gamecube, PS2, Xbox
>HD/Online - Anything after Because modern gaming practices are a joke.
Thats the most hilarious thing about all of this. I think the mods just want to fuck with the community by doing the opposite of what would have worked.
gen 6 should not be considered retro for another 10 years. then it will be retro
It’s you isn’t it, the sixth gen spammer autist
>Nooooo, I won't be able to make TOK threads and force TTYDchads to listen to my bullshit.
desu even before that, making threads about arcade games except shoot em ups and beat em ups was always fail no one would even come to your threads, and shoot em ups and beat em ups just get attention on that board from same autist, who if dont see a thread just make one themselves like some pseudo generals, all other threads about arcades like fatal fury, snowbros and shit always get 1 or 2 reply at most,
it was either dragon quest final fantasy or some other jrpgs, making a thread about misc games Zig Forums is much better, /vr/ was always like snes-psx jrpg board
6th gen consoles are older now at the cusp of 9th gen (18-21 years) than 4th gen consoles were when 6th gen was coming out (roughly a decade).
Xbox, PS2, and Gamecube at this point are absolutely retro. Classic games like Ratchet and Clank, Katamari, Shadow of the Colossus, etc. deserve to be considered retro the same as the NES was. They're older than the NES was when THAT was considered retro.
Anyone arguing otherwise is legitimately just a shriveled up, sad old man that should have stopped browsing this site and gotten his life together fifteen years ago.
I'd be fine for coining a new term for the era after the sixth generation to use going forward, though.
