A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I've got three games going on:
Paper Mario (N64) for a gaming book club sort of thing, but I was intent on finishing the Paper Mario and Mario RPG series anyway. The N64-ness took a bit of getting used to but it's a great game, most of the series' DNA is in there already.
Ocarina of Time 3D (3DS) for on the go, but I must admit I'm a little stuck in one of the first dungeons - bit embarrassing!
Forza Horizon 6 (XSX) on the big telly. Super cheesy writing and the game just showers you with supercars, but it's fun ticking off the events and collectables. Looks gorgeous!
