>>713426116 (OP) why is it not? cos it reminds you that you're old? the snes was retro in 2000 when it was barely 10 years old, yet this 25 year old console is not?

>>713426535 ps3 has other outputs other than hdmi shit's old as fuck unc time to accept it
>>713426116 (OP) It's 25 years old in a 50 years old industry. If it's not retro now it will be by 2030. Accept it. We're old.

>>713426116 (OP) I had it back when it was new, and it is unfortunately retro now. I still keep one hooked up with a hard drive just to play the vidya, though, because it had tons of great games.

>>713426419 Implying before the rule change you would not be citing /vr/ board rules as an example of why PS2 couldn't be retro but dreamcast could.
>>713426526 retro has nothing to do with how old something is but the general design philosophy of the games. if you can save your game and there is no permanent fail state like losing all lives forcing you to start over then it's not retro.
PS1 and N64 weren't and never will be retro because by that time saving your game was a standard feature instead of exception.

>>713429889 by that logic even in 2150 the ps2 still won't be retro enough. even Zelda 1 on the NES in the 70s had saving , is it suddenly not retro anymore? retro as a definition is nostalgic and old, nothing to do with game design philosophy
