A lil FF7 at lunch time on my RP2+ (lemmy.world)

Hardly retro hardware but now with the new version coming out it's definitely obsolete. Even so I'm still lovin my rp2+. Even my RP3+ hasn't been able to replace it.

Its a great form factor, is capable of emulating a bunch of decent systems, and functions as a general purpose android device.

FF7 is a game I never played back in the day even though the commercials are still burned into my brain.

While I'm not a huge Final Fantasy guy, I figured I owed it to myself to try and make my way through it. The prerendered scenery mixed with cool stylized polygonal characters is great.

Hope everyone is taking their daily recommended dose of pointless nostalgia gaming ;)

If you want to feel even older, FF7 Remake was announced in 2015 after at least a decade of speculation and came out three years ago. Final Fantasy is now on 16 for their main entry which means FF7 isn't even halfway through the series anymore.

Wait FF7 is retro now?

...and it has been for a while, after all the PSOne came out almost 30 years ago
