🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 20/07/2026it's obvious that game character design is purposefully ugly now... just give me a character creator if you're gonna ruin the look of your game's protagonist. 010 0
🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 13/07/2026Since game devs can't quit ruining their games... just make remasters of old stuff, ok? 010 0
🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 12/07/2026I've seen speed runners using glitches in games to get shorter times in game runs. Maybe I'm just a relic of the past but... in my day that was called cheating! 000 0
🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 11/07/2026I like how there are game sales but nothing I want is in the sale. So I buy the game I want at full price and THEN it goes on sale a few weeks later. 000 0
🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 08/07/2026Hey devs? Making money shouldn't be a problem if you just lost your job. People are yearning for old games and some devs are obliging. Example, Thief is being remastered. Which I'll gladly buy. Remaster more games, they'll sell. I now look forward to remastered and indie titles. 010 0
🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 06/07/2026I was playing Final Fight arcade and was thinking of the console wars in the early 90s and the game stores and all the hyped game releases back then.... it occurred to me, I was there. I was around when these games released. I'm old lol 110 0
🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 05/07/2026Let me get this straight... • Sony going all digital = bad • Steam being all digital = good • Nintendo fans think key cards are fine No wonder gaming is a mess, look at the flawed logic gamers juggle lol 000 0
🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 04/07/2026Gamers right now: "I'm going to retro gaming if next gen is all digital!" Retro gaming: "Sure, drop on by... if you hate paying 100 bucks for digital next gen games, have fun buying 30 year old cartridges for twice that, hah!" 000 0
🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 04/07/2026I'm waiting to see gamers go through all the phases and then reach the acceptance phase and say all digital won't be bad lol. I've already seen many do just that. Nintendo fans especially. 000 0
🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 03/07/2026lol game websites are now covering the blunder sony put out about digital. even mocking ppl like myself that quoted the elites a few years ago saying you will own nothing. hey game "journalists," take your head out of your butts because that IS the agenda. derps. 000 0

🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 01/07/2026What's going on in gaming? Looks to me gaming is toast possibly. Devs getting shut down, devs mocking their own fans, devs changing characters in games and upsetting fans, hardware and game prices soaring.

🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 30/06/2026I played this when it was rereleased on the Switch... it's one of my fave 3D Mario games now. This is how I want more Mario games to be. 000 0
🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 29/06/2026TurboGrafx 16 was an underrated console and Konami produced a mini of it that's actually great. It's an expensive system to collect for now but the mini is much more affordable at 250 to 350 bucks. With over 50 games it's a high quality mini console. 010 0

🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 23/06/2026After a week with the PS Portal I gotta say it surprised me. Plays great, little if any lag, has a touch screen, works perfect with the Pulse Explore ear buds, but I dunno how streaming games are as I play games that are already on my console. 5 out of 5 stars for me. 120 0
🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 22/06/2026Since game devs are busy ruining their games with agendas ... I'd happily take more remasters and remakes of older games. I have a list of games I'd like remastered. 100 0
🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 19/06/2026Bought the PS Portal and the Pulse Explorer ear buds Very nice, they're serving their purpose perfectly. But they're over priced I think. 000 0

🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 18/06/2026I'm all for using different and especially cheaper sources of energy, but solar takes up a lot of land. That's acres of crop soil being wasted by solar panels. There has to be a genius out there that can create solar "panels" that are built into windows, buildings, etc. 000 0
🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 17/06/2026Unpopular opinion: Stop making games people don't want and you'll have a job. Game devs are getting crushed out there, I know, but you have to cater to the audience or they will close their wallets. 000 0

🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 11/06/2026Karnov was a great arcade game and I lost a stupid amount of quarters playing it. I remember the 7-11 I played it at, slurpee drinks, candy bars... good times. But the game was also a good time on the NES. Lots of power ups and decent grafx for an early game. 120 0

🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 07/06/2026This is actually a fun game and a turbo controller will help you get through it fairly well. Naturally it's based on Final Fight but with cutesy characters instead. 010 0
🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 05/06/2026While only loosely based on the arcade version, Rygar on the NES is a great game with catchy music. An early release title and a strong one at that. 141 0
🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 05/06/2026Truth be known, I bought my Switch 2 for exclusives like Mario, Zelda and Metroid. I bought my PS5 Pro for a few AAA titles and a lot of Indies.

🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 03/06/2026Been playing Icarus on PS5 and it's basically like Ark but without the dinos. It's a rough game and takes patience but I'm enjoying it. At least it has co-op if you want to tackle a wild new environment with help. 000 0
🇺🇸 Retro Pixel 🇬🇧 @retro-pixel.bsky.social · 03/06/2026Streets of Rage 1 is my fave, has the best music, too. SoR 2 is fine but I loathe SoR 3, terrible music, dithered graphics, ugh. 000 0
