Is it possible for a game to be too retro for /vr/? Rogue? Nethack?

I mean, I have no desire to play Tennis For Two, frankly.

yeah how come we never see any Pong threads, but endless bitching over PS1/N64/Dreamcast being considered retro?

>>3582981
I love Pong, but it's kind of hard to have a meaningful conversation about.

>>3582982
Not that N64/PS1/DC discussion is particularly meaningful

How is Nethack too retro? It's still being updated.

>>3582984
That's a really good point. People need to stop complaining and talk about pong.

>>3582980
You wouldn't want to experience the silky smoothness of an oscilloscope game?

Faggot.

>>3582984
but somehow NES/Master System/SNES/Genesis is meaningful?

the Im older than you kiddo cool police of /vr/ only care about 3rd and 4th generation consoles and absolutely nothing before or after

>>3582969
No. The rules are pretty clear on it

>>3582981
Because "we" is you. An you probably only click on waifu pics in the catalog

About as meaningful as it gets unless you're talking hardware.

silky smooth

>>3582969
Pretty much anything before the NES is too old for /vr/

>>3582980
I'd rather play Tennis for Two than any game on the Atari 2600 desu

1974

PLATO was powerful

>>3582969
I have never seen /vr/ talk about infocom games.

>>3582969
According to the board's rules—no, it's not possible

The rest really doesn't matter

Crescent hawk intercept was an awesome game.

>>3583229
I've seen several text adventure/interactive fiction threads. I usually make a couple of obligatory post and then resign myself to the fact that there are probably like 1000 people in the whole world that still play them. Even at the int-fiction forums there are barely any posts.

>>3582969
Since Rogue is the best thing ever......No.

my african-american sibling

Can we just talk about nethack pls?

I just ascended for the first time a week ago. Human Valkyre, yeah I know, pretty much is easy mode but still, been trying to do a second successful run and keep YASDing like a bitch.

What about you guys, favorite class to play? how was your first ascension?

>If game came out before 1999 then post on /vr/
>If game came out after 1999 then post on /v/

Is this concept to hard to understand for you? Even if the game came out 1879, it would be still posted on /vr/.

Anything before the NES gets minimum discussion on /vr/. We rarely get threads dedicated to Pong systems, Pong in general, Donkey Kong, the Atari 2600, Breakout, Frogger, etc.

I have never been able to get a text thread going on. I love games like Alter Ego but no one else seems to.

Legend of the Red Dragon.
Legend of the Red Dragon.... 2!
Usurper.

I wanna remake nethack in this:

There are still Atari 2600 threads so no.

>>3584451
Let's be honest. Nobody outside of /vr/ people plays the games OP is talking about

>>3585728
..... and so?
Are you THAT insecure?

>>3582969
Nintendo card games. But that's /tg/

>>3582969
I wouldn't think Nethack would be too retro, since /vg/ has a /rlg/ where people are playing it quite often.

>>3585728
>what is /rlg/

>>3585970
Wait, no. I miss understood the OP question. OP is the retarded one

>>3585728
I'm kind of dismayed that a game with a fairly active subreddit is considered too hardcore and obscure for the internet hate machine

Do you guys play any games or just make perler bead magnets?
