I hereby declare that the cutoff for a game to be considered "retro" is 20 years. This will end all debate as to when "retro" truly begins.
It's 2022 now, and both Halo: Combat Evolved and Grand Theft Auto III came out in 2001, so... that means they qualify as "retro games"!

Get the Retro Games mug.A retrogamer is a gamer preferring playing and collecting retro games - older video games and arcade games. They may also be called classic gamers or old-school gamers, which are terms that are more prevalent in the United States. The games are played either on the original hardware, on modern hardware via console emulation, or on modern hardware via ports or compilations.
