What's going on brehs. I'm curious if any other brehs are into retro gaming. I am building up a physical collection of games in my mancave. I do partake in emulation; my PSP, vita and 3ds are modded.
 
I'm into retro gaming. I've not been as active the last couple of years. But I do enjoy going to New shops that open around me and browse the collections. What put me on the wave is a year or two before COVID. I was helping a friend move and he had a GameCube in his basement. I was all I never played that system. He asked if I wanted it and said sure.

Took it home it worked and then I set out looking for games for it. Felt/still feel that GC games can be pricey but the system had a short run.

A couple of my friends have a stand up arcade cabinet loaded with an emulator basically but they have huge libraries of games and you can just select your game and have at it.

I don't get them advertised as often but IG has almost convinced me a couple of times to buy one of those Fire stick like plug ins that are like emulators loaded with retro games.

Another one of my friends had the NES mini and some how had an updated version of Super Tecmo Bowl. But with modern players. So one of our Fantasy Football drafts we had that running sims in the background and it was so fun seeing all the classic Tecmo Bowl animations but with new players.

Retro gaming though is definitely a fun hobby.
 
Idk what we’re considering retro but I have all my consoles from the PS3 era and back. Only console I never owned was the SNES, and I lost my PS2 somehow. Still have PS3, 360, OG Xbox, Dreamcast, PSX, Saturn, N64,Genesis and NES.

I was actively trying to buy games for Saturn and DC til COVID came and prices went stupid, now I strictly emulate.
 
I bought a Steam Deck a couple of years ago primarily for this purpose. I even got the kids playing some old school games - got them frustrated with Contra on the NES :pachaha:
 
Running through PSP games since I haven't played any since high school. Underrated system..playing god of war on the go is crazy.
