I mean, new NES/SNES and co titles?

Sweet man

But goddamn, they really gotta stop attempting to sell the Atari days again. It's just not happening

@coolboymew You can sell nostalgia in the form of a particular game style, like sprite-based RPGs or side-scrolling platforms, but it's not as effective when it's a worse version of what we already have. Atari stuff is generally just a more primitive version of NES/SNES stuff, kind of like N64 stuff is generally a more primitive version of 3d games. Games from that era that are great are so in spite of technical limitations, not because of them.

@ArdanianRight depends, I can see N64/PS1 level stuff succeeding to a certain extend

But it's going to be much harder to realize than pixel games and honestly, probably would be a massive waste of time to stylize generally, which is why it doesn't happen often

I'd kill for a Chameleon Twist 3 in the same style tho'

@coolboymew There's no reason to make 3d games blocky and polygonal. You can make stuff like collectathon platformers in a modern 3d style just as well.

@ArdanianRight basically

And modern games with prerendered backgrounds works too

So there's very little incentive to

@coolboymew @ArdanianRight I've been hearing talks about how modern games can still use pre-rendered backgrounds to save budget and processing power. Especially given that we have better renderers now.
