What is Retro Gaming? This week we ask the question and then try to answer it. We first kick things off with some news surrounding the new DC fighting game Injustice 2 before discussing the latest Nintendo Switch and Zelda: Breath of the Wild news. We talk a bit about what games we are currently playing. Hit up @HeroesPodcasts on Twitter with the tag #currentlyplaying to let us know what you’re up to!

After a lively discussion there we dive into the concept of retro gaming. What makes a game retro? What makes a console retro? How does this impact pc gaming? Handheld? We discuss all of these aspects breaking down graphics, game play, technology, release date, and more. Check out the list below for some hot points to jump to.
