Those of us who can, have fond memories of the old ‘retro games’ days. The fond memories of Ataris, Turbografxs, Nintendos and Segas.

But with every fond memory, there’s a dark side…the things that annoy the piss out of us when we go back to play old games because we’ve been spoiled. So let’s discuss those old pains in the butt, shall we?

To start with, how about those old passwords with 30 characters…and some letters/numbers looked like 3 others because of the font?

I certainly remember enjoying them, but I try not too get too caught up in nostalgia. Try going back to some of those older games and you’ll realize nostalgia is sugarcoating the reality that some of the games aren’t that great. In particular, games with that 1st generation blocky 3D graphics are actually painful too look at.
