We are now at a point where we are farther away from the GameCube, than the GameCube was to the NES.
Remember when it was seen as a pretty cool retro throwback with New Super Mario Bros for the DS in 2006? People said that it was over 1 years since the last (big) Mario game it was an amazing retro throwback. The last time at that point where we had a traditional Mario game, was technically Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. That game release in 1995... 11 years from that point.
Do you know that last time we got our last new 2D platformer from Mario? 2012. Almost 10 years ago now, and assuming Nintendo releases a 2D Mario game next year, it will be enough time to call it a retro throwback to New Super Bros U.
You know that new hit IP Pikmin and Animal Crossing? Everyone always used to bring it up as a "new IP" all the time. Now I don't want to burst your bubble. But Pikmin and Animal Crossing are now older than Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Kid Icarus, Kirby was when they released in 2001-2002. Pikmin even is older now than the original Donkey Kong cabinet was in 2001. The cabinet Donkey Kong was only 20 years old back then. Pikmin for the GameCube is 21 years old.
You all are aging fossils, trapped into the spans of time.
And do you know what I find the most hilarious. The 3DS is over 11 years old now, making it completely a retro console.
And this November. The Wii U will be over 10 years old, leaving it to firmly stand as a retro console. Im not going to lie, I have a lot of nostalgia for the Wii U.
But this is soon where we will all be
