Some games mentioned in the retro games discussion: Blaster Master, Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon, Castlevania, Ninja Gaiden, Super Mario Bros.
Retrogamepapa’s Addendum: This went quite off rails a lot haha. Still, we do actually manage to discuss what exactly is a retro game, as well as name the merits that come with “new retro games” and stuff.
