If there’s one Nintendo franchise that deserves a comeback… it’s Mario Super Sluggers ⚾️ #nintendo #mario #retrogaming #wii

The PS3 & Xbox 360 Era Was When Gaming First Felt Connected, it wasn’t until games like Halo 3, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, Gears of War, Warhawk, and MAG that online console gaming truly exploded. #retrogaming #playstation #xbox #gaming #halo

Originally considered part of official Star Wars canon, The Force Unleashed introduced players to Starkiller while pushing physics, destruction, and environmental interaction further than most games of its generation. #retrogaming #starwars

SVR 2007 on Xbox 360 felt like a HUGE leap… this is when wrestling games peaked. #wwe #wwegames #retrogaming #xbox360

Mario Sunshine Is Actually Ridiculous 😂 from Mario literally going to jail, to Yoshi… yeah… doing that thing, to Nintendo’s strange obsession with giving characters backpacks like FLUDD and Luigi’s vacuum in Luigi’s Mansion. with @age_of_retro #gaming #retrogaming #nintendo #supermario #yoshi

The first trailer for the new Street Fighter movie is finally here… and yeah… it’s not looking great. If the movie leans into the over-the-top nature of Street Fighter and embraces what makes the series fun, there’s still a chance it could surprise people. #streetfighter #capcom

They Don’t Make Co-Op Games Like This Anymore Army of Two wasn’t just another shooter — it was built entirely around co-op.

Before the modern Spider-Man games… this was the one. The Neversoft Spider-Man game on PS1 (also released on N64 and Dreamcast) was, for a long time, considered the best superhero game ever made — and honestly, it’s not hard to see why. #spiderman #marvel #avengers #playstation #gaming
