Retro Gaming Thread

I know there is already a gaming thread, but I figured having a separate thread just for retro/older games and systems, would help keep things a bit more organized.

So go ahead and post videos or comments about all the retro games and systems you love, and love to hate! ( I'm lookin at you power glove

)

An older video game Chai. For older systems. Like SNES, SEGA Genisis/Saturn, N64, PS1 or PS2......SEGA Game Gear

Skyrim is over 4 months old now, does it count?

Chai... Go "Fus Ro Dah" yourself off a cliff...

Probably one of my favorite "retro" games:

Do games from the original Xbox console count?

Guys. This a Forum i belong to that you may be interested in?
You'll find me there as Junkmale (surprisingly!)
BTW over there we class 'Retro' as any system that is no longer in production.

Yeah Chai, xbox counts. So does GameCube.

What junkmale said is a pretty good definition, somthing they no longer make.
