    > I also agree that modern, blocky pixel art often is a kind of misdirected, anachronistic nostalgia.

    Pixel art, for me, is the Gameboy Color and Gameboy Advanced which I never played on a CRDT.

      Same thought here, GBA was the peak of mainstream 2D graphics for me. I look at games from that era and often times they have aged well, they still look ideal to me.

        I enjoyed playing GBA game the most on my Anbernic. They do feel good to play in the way the previous generation just doesn't.
