@schykle OH MAN I am dying to replay that! Yet another Mario game I started but never finished back in the day.
To your question: I think there's some debate on whether 6th or 7th gen is considered the starting point for retro games, but the Wii is almost 20 years old. I certainly consider it retro at this point.

@killyourfm I'm currently re-experiencing Super Mario Galaxy on the Wii... does this count as retro yet? :P

@schykle Does it make you feel old... or young again? Serious question! I spent all last weekend playing Mario Kart and Super Mario Odyssey with my friend and it honestly made me feel young again. It was just pure FUN.

@killyourfm It's just so dang good! Worth a revisit for sure!
I only partially kid, but wow that makes me feel so old because it's still so fresh for me in my mind 😩
I did also play a lot of N64 games back in the day and I know that certainly must count :P Looking forward to seeing all the awesome interactions around this!

@killyourfm @schykle
I would consider it retro at this point.Do we need to define video games like Magic: the Gathering defines formats (Vintage, Modern, Pioneer, Standard)?

@TeamLinux01 @schykle Oh, that sounds fun to riff on!
Vintage: Atari, Intellivision, C64?
Retro: NES to Gamecube
Classic: ??? -

I'm far from being a Matrix pro, but I'm thinking that the general "space" can be for anyone who wants to chat about retro gaming, and then an individual room can be devoted to the people doing monthly game playthroughs together.

I feel like N64 to Wii U is pretty Classic at this point.
Do people still consider PS5 next gen?

@TeamLinux01 @schykle I have no idea where the blurry line of next-gen exists anymore. Is PS5 current-gen, but Switch 2 is next-gen? Is PC always current gen and next-gen? LOL

@jlamasfripp I confidently confess that I adore amazing alliteration.

@killyourfm it looks like they wonderfully worked their subtle skills in the alliteration anvil 😆

@killyourfm I have Matrix but never knew anyone else that had it so I haven’t used it. Not sure if I can search for the group from within the app or I have to be invited.
