@Bolded This is why a lot of people don't consider PS3 or 360 to be retrogaming even though both systems are over ten years old. Games from the early 3D era feel markedly different from games of the 2D era. Games from the 6th gen feel markedly different from games of the 7th gen. But 8th gen? That's just 7th gen with extra graphical bells and whistles.
Edit: Also this is the secret to Switch's success. Switch can play PS5/Series games so long as they are downgraded. Switch can offer the same style of gameplay that 7th, 8th, and 9th gen consoles have had all this time. Except Switch is portable, and has Nintendo games.
Ever since the Wii Nintendo had the disadvantage of being about a gen behind everybody else. But that doesn't matter now, because everything is scalable. If I told somebody in 2017 that Switch could run Witcher 3, they'd say I was insane. And yet here we are with a Witcher 3 port to the system! :D
