A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

What console do you still turn on from time to time today? (beehaw.org)

In my case, the OG Xbox. The first console I got, so definitely nostalgia tinted feeling. Fable, Dead or Alive and Star Wars Jedi Outcast are probably my most played games on that platform.

My N64 to remind myself how amazing Golden Eye, Perfect Dark, Mario Kart and Army Men: Sarges Heroes are, especially for when they were released. I also have a modded XBox which has 20+ games on it and some older films on it. Playing modded Halo is always a grand ol' time and Fuzion Frenzy is a stroll down memory lane for me.

My old N64 i got as a kid is still kickin and i play it from time to time as well. Even have it plugged into an old 19" CRT TV for maximum nostalgia (i tried plugging it into a modern flat screen some years ago and it did NOT look right).

My poor N64 has been sitting in a plastic box for like 10 years. Everytime I feel the itch to use it, I fire up an emulator instead. I've thought about getting a CRT TV specifically for party games, but I don't really have the space.

Oh my. You gave me a huge flashback by mentioning Fuzion Frenzy. Just wanted to say thank you!
