>Didn't the 80's revival started with Hotline Miami?
haha....no. It was just a symptom of it.

There was definitely a claim towards '80s nostalgia during the 2000s, but the reality was that it kind of always existed. '80s stuff was still in the cultural zietgiest all through the '90s. "The Wedding Singer" with Adam Sandler released in 1998 is the earliest example I can think of that tried to do a specific setting in the 1980s. Within a few years we also got "American Psycho" and "Donnie Darko" which were hugely popular. Fox Television also tried to capitalize on the popularity of "That '70s Show" with "That '80s Show" but ended up cancelling it after 1 season. By the 2010s we were already in full nostalgia mode with wayfarer sunglasses being back in style and vaporwave and synthwave music starting to become popular. All this shit happened way before Hotline Miami
