Anything that isn't current generation really; but for my personal collection PS1, PS2 and GameCube titles are what I collect and continue to play. I don't think I could enjoy Sega Genesis or Atari as much as I did as a kid and never owned an NES or SNES either always played at friends homes was always the one who got the different system.

Super Mario world 3, on the SNES, I still have the SNES set up, well it's at home, and not at my uni, but it's probably one of the most used consoles in my house.

To me anything 10 years older or more feels pretty retro.  When I can think nostalgically about a game, it's retro to me.

15+ years in games is 'old school' to me.

I think if you give it another generation I'll call snes/genesis retro.

Nearly everything is retro and yet nothing is retro for me.

Anything that isn't current gen pretty much counts as 'retro'. That being said, I've lived through a lot of it and I still play my C64, Vectrex, Master System, SNES et al. For me, some of those games are still so fresh and entertaining that I never actually think of them as 'retro'. They're just games, pure and simple.

I got on a "retro" kick a while back and spent too much money on NES games off ebay a few years back.  I still pull out the NES though from time to time.  I go back and play:

RBI Baseball
City Connection
Bubble Bobble
Mike Tysons Punch Out
Super Dodge Ball
American Gladiators
MegaMan
Lee Travinos Fighting Golf
Snake Rattle and Roll

Gee I should stop there - many more on the list however.

Every once a while I play Duck Hunt. I never get enough of that game. It's still a great game to pull out when some friends are over, everyone knows it and loves it.

I don't think I understand the question. Was there supposed to be a quiz or something?

I'm more of a recent last gen PC retro player I guess. Deus Ex still sits on my hard drive as does Morrowind which I just started playing. I've got some VC games on my Wii, but I don't know if that counts. I'm thinking about downloading the free version of Daggerfall for a little DOS retro fun.

The Sega Genesis and the original Playstation. I'm not really that old, so my gaming origins don't extend back very far.

Well there is "neo-retro" which is anything prior to the Playstation 1, Saturn or N64 generations (5th generation of gaming).  Then there is "actual retro" which, for me, is anything from around or prior to the great video game crash of 1983.

I got a Game Boy when I was 8 and a N64 when I was 10 in 1997.  I had played my friend's NES and Genesis as well.

Yeah, there's just nothing retro about disks in my opinion. I can't feel old school unless I'm shoving a cartridge in my system. And if your controller fits in you're hand, you aren't retro. I was just playing b/w gameboy yesterday, and that is it. Retro's just gotta be when you play through a game you don't even like just because you own it, and games used to be so short.

Atari 2600 or the Trash 80. It's a toss-up.
