Belated self-introduction incoming:
Hi, I'm Desko! I make video game content and mess around with the contents of video games.
I made a couple FNAF fangames back in the day (below: FNATI: Found), make mods for other games (below: Sonic 06 pointlight fix, Turrican MDRR) and sometimes upload YT vids.

I'm getting increasingly angry about how the definition of "decompilation" went to "port" as in now a PC port of a N64 game is called a decompilation. Please stop, you don't know how to name shit, just call it a port.

"Hey Pat, are these ACTUALLY considered retro gaming consoles?"
Yes. They are.
Xbox 360 released in 2005 over 20 years ago, with the PS3 and Wii not far behind in 2006.
Keep in mind, when the XBOX 360 released, 20 years before that was 1985.
The year the NES launched...
Yes. They are.

When I was a kid I kept having trouble over where to put the comma when using "because" in a sentence. I eventually just decided it was after the word and not before and got so stubborn that I started insisting that the comma was part of the word itself and that it was spelled "because,"

The game that got me into RPGs, helped me learn how to read as a kid, and would eventually motivate me to start the first American site dedicated to Dragon Warrior/Quest way back when. Cheers to this awesome remake and series!
