Given how reactionary the average Gen Z guys are, this is less of a protest and more of a self-preservation tactic.

Came here to suggest Unbound too!

It’s moreso that they think “by the time shit hits the fan, I’ll be long dead anyway, so I don’t see why I should care”. Ergo, pure, distilled lack of empathy, a “fuck you, I got mine” aimed at the future of every living being in our planet.

I’m fully out of the loop on what’s going on, but I really hope the emulator doesn’t shut down, I love my PS1 emulation…

Whoa whoa whoa whoa, WHAT? I don’t use RetroArch most of the time (I find its UI rather inconvenient), but I had no idea its main developer was transphobic, can you tell me more?

That’s a fair assessment, though I personally believe there should be a distinction between “previous generation” and “retro”. When the PS3 was a current-gen console, the PS2 and PS1 weren’t really seen as retro, just old and outdated.

Then again, I guess it’s a distinction without much of a difference. ^^"

It’s a Powkiddy V90!

Personally, I consider the cutoff point between Retro and Modern as being when the sixth generation (PS2, Xbox, Gamecube, Dreamcast) ended and the seventh (PS3, X360, Wii) began.

I guess I’m a bit weird in this regard, because I did grow up with sixth gen games (I never had a GBA, but I did dabble with GBA emulation at the time) and thus should probably also feel the same way you do, but I remained quite fond of them even as a lot of people moved on to newer consoles and no longer shared my interests. I guess I had an easier time labeling them as retro because it was easier to justify me still liking them as opposed to “being stuck behind the times” or “being too poor to afford the newer games/consoles” like people used to say to me.

Like… yeah, I was too poor to afford the newer stuff, but that wasn’t the ONLY reason I liked the older games. I just thought they were neat and had sentimental value to me.

I’m so glad I’m not the only one who noticed… it’s disheartening and frustrating.

My beloved childhood game Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2 is much better on the PS2 compared to PC, due to being developed by a different team; having grown up with the PC version, the first time I played the PS2 version it felt like I was playing a remake because it’s almost a completely different game.

It makes me really sad that the space station is going to be destroyed since I always really liked it, but the sheer amount of fuel needed to move it to a stable position makes me (begrudgingly) understand why they’re going to do it…

That’s the one, thank you!

Oh, it is indeed the second one, thank you!!

Yeah, I’m watching a video on the PS2 version and it seems completely different 😅 I might try that one, actually… But yeah, it might not have the nostalgia factor.

That’s what I’ve been thinking, too. As a zoomer/zillennial who doesn’t follow it, from what I’ve gathered Skibidi Toilet seems to be just Gen Alpha’s equivalent of YouTube Poops that Milllennials loved and GMod animation shitposts Zoomers enjoyed.

Considering I loved both of these while growing up, and still like rewatching them from time to time for nostalgia’s sake, it’d be hypocritical of me to hate skibidi toilet 😅

I just hope the Citra forks won’t be targeted. Citra was only killed as collateral damage, but I still can’t help but be nervous anyway…

Do I really need to make an account there in order to download it? :/
