@kelbot @sugar and others: would you give some examples of modern games that do not involve tediously completing 'missions' by moving from place to place collecting things, and usually killing a bunch of other things, in a rendered 3-d environment? Not trying to start a fight -- I am genuinly interested.

What is considered retro? I feel like this might be a personal definition in some cases. I've got a 3ds that's been broken for ages, hoping to get it to a repair shop this week so I can finally play a bunch of my old 3ds games. To me this feels retro because the system is 12 years old already. At the same time it was jarring to go to the retro game shop a few weeks ago and see a bunch of wii u games and systems, even though that's 11 years old now.
