Retro games are video games that were developed and released in the past, typically during the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s. These games are often cherished by gamers (including myself) for their nostalgia, simplicity, and classic gameplay. Maybe that is why we spotted so many new games in an old-school jacket lately.
Let’s take a look at some of these new and upcoming ‘modern retro games‘ and take a closer look at what makes them so retro and therefore potentially cherishable.
As new consoles get released (hello, PS5!) older consoles we all used to love enter oblivion. Or do they? Retro gaming has been really popular amongst 20- and 30- year olds, as the 80’s and 90’s revival spread through popular culture. That leads us to wonder: what are the most popular Retro Game Consoles? And: can we still buy them to play the games we used to love? The answer to that question? Of course you can!
Ever wondered why the NES Classic Edition was so popular back in the day? Why so many people are still playing World of Warcraft Classic? Or why it seems that Arcade Halls are popping up everywhere? How come these retro games are still so popular?
