Retro is what you experienced during adolescence, and then when you're older and have a sense of something you knew you grew up with and brings you back to your youthful days full of sweet nostalgia!

What I consider retro games are pixelated graphics and early 3D graphics such as n64 and even ps2.

The cleanest definition I've ever heard to differentiate between retro and modern is: Modern is the current and previous generation of consoles/handhelds. Retro is anything prior. Now as a 38 year old man, this was a tough pill to swallow, because I still think of PS2 as relatively modern, let alone PS3 (which I recently started collecting and LOVE)!!! BUT... as bad as it feels, it is actually a really sensible way to define the split.

When people think of retro, they always think of any video games of the ps1 era and before. For me, there are more retro vibes in modern games too. Shovel Knights, Duck Tales remaster, River City Girls, Wild Guns Reloaded, Street of Rage 4, and etc are getting the retro vibes presently. So making older games retro is no longer set by time now as more games are coming out. Usually indie games and short funded games will bring the retro to modern gaming now.
