Why do people love Retro Games?
There is simplicity to it. Old games are very simple compared to the new games today. A lot of complicated puzzles, there are a lot of complicated stats. Before everytime you level up you will just manage Strength, Dexterity, Energy or HP. Now everything that you need to build for your character is farmable. There are slots available to you and you will farm the gadgets or materials in this area or in this dungeon. To build it up you need to farm day in and day out. Games before are more simple because it is the story that we are looking for. Neverwinter Nights, I think that is the most complicated game there is in its era, but come to realize now, it is all in the story. Neverwinter has sidequests and alignments but it is all can be adjusted and can be built as you level up and not to farm everything that you need to be able to build your character to a proper class. Now the building process takes your time to go and scour the whole map and still you can not build it properly because you need to roll the stats of the item.
There is relevance. There is this: you have a relationship to the game, that you can’t explain that you are in joy just seeing the game and actually playing it giving you goosebumps. Like in an RPG you know where to go, you know where the ammo is hiding. Or in a fighting game, you still know the combo and you still know how to counter that move of an opponent.
These instances spark joy in our faces. Remembering how to play the game properly and with efficiency is the simple joys that we are getting playing these old games. Probably a book lover would relate to that if you read a book for the first time and you felt great that you finished it, and then the second time you read it, it is like friends that we picture the scenario of what we are reading with more vibrancy. We read a book the second time, it feels like you are seeing familiar faces again. Similar to what games give us, playing with these retro games makes you alive again. Makes you say to yourself, “I played that!”.
With the evolution of close-to-life cinematics and realistic 3D renders, Open World, Virtual Reality that is almost as if you are actually there. Whether it is a fantasy world, or in a small village of a real country, there is this time that you really want to relive the pixelated adventure of Mario or Sonic or Suikoden, come to think of it a lot of people still love Minecraft. Come on, a lot of gamers, young or old, love minecraft. It is not perfect, it is blocked, bloated pixels like humans creating stuff and surviving in a world of squared objects.
Now you can relive it in RetroGames.cc, it is a hub of, obviously, retro games or old titles from Game Boy Advance to the original Playstation. As you can see there is this Marvel vs. Capcom, there is Tekken, some Sonic. You can play it now in your browser. You don’t need to hunt for a good emulator and a good copy of the ROM just to play it. It will take up your space, it will take up your time finding the good ROM and Emulator just for you.

Clunky it may sometimes seem like the audio or the actual controls especially with people with very fat fingers. Well I get to advance to stage 9 in Tekken with Hwoarang with a few taps of the screen. All in all you are there not to compete but just to enjoy the old game you used to play so it is a win-win.
