we just had someone tell us that a game that came out in 2007 was retro

we still can't see anything newer than psx/n64/saturn era as "retro"

@Felthry that feels a little recent to us, too - I think we'd accept GameCube games being called retro, but the Wii? the XBox 360? the first Portal game? That feels like it's pushing it

I guess they'll get there eventually, but like ... idk, maybe we just haven't seen a lot of how games have evolved in the past decade, but it feels like GameCube is closer to modern games than to retro games...

@packbat @Felthry I still feel weird about people saying that DS games are retro.
