r/RetroGaming is very strict about retro. They say the Nintendo 64 is retro while the PlayStation 2 is modern. This despite the fact the PlayStation 2 is now 25 years old.

So I got to wonder about this community deems as “retro”.

Or a better question: what’s considered retro and not retro? What’s the fine line between retro and modern?

    But the PS3 / 360 are coming up to 20 years old. Hell, one of my adult colleagues was born after the 360 was released. Can they really be considered modern anymore?
