    @OutofPrintArchive@mstdn.games There seems to have been a lot of “it’s on 8-bit so it’s shit” flying around at the time.

      It gets really frustrating seeing the switch to a new generation result in reviewers trash anything last gen, or even complete genres that they believe to be last gen.

      Shoot em ups come to mind as the 32-bit series started and then 2D fighters as we got to the Dreamcast era…
