TL;DR:...
I also had the Nintendo on top of the TV back then. It was where it belonged even with the dangling cable. You learned to accept it. Even, dare I say, love it? (midwest.social)

at what point do you draw the line for "retro"?

It was a really early CD-Rom game, probably 1993ish. You started off in the stone ages using sticks and rocks, fighting off bad guys and solving puzzles, and you’d move through time using the weapons of that era.
