Yes for coarse pixels and graphics from the 1980s or 1990s! No need for a very high definition screen for these old consoles offered by the Capucins media library in Brest, with free access, during this new thematic afternoon, Saturday December 16, 2023. “We already offer all year round, in our main games area, two old consoles (a Super Nintendo and an Atari console) with their integrated games,” introduced Monica Marin, at the helm, with her colleague Antoine Baudet.

“There is a real interest in these old generation consoles which are now being re-released and with lasting licenses.” There are purely retro consoles and remastered ones, those which are brought up to date but always with a vintage style in their content, boxes and controllers. “Players look for the games they knew as children and love to share them with their family. The intergenerational aspect is very appealing. Some people look for the less easy side of these old games. There is a real challenge in discovering how the most elaborate ones work and the tricks to score points and stay alive.”

The curiosity of the first versions of games

Comodore 64, Nintendo Game Cube (the ancestor of the famous Wii), mini Mega Drive and its dozens of integrated games. Nostalgia is in full swing for aficionados who rediscover their good reflexes of yesteryear. “There is also the curiosity of those who know and play versions of certain games today, such as Street Fighter 6 released last June.” A return to basics which finds its audience and which the manufacturers have perfectly identified. “There is still really something to be surprised about today by these old consoles and their integrated games,” assure Monica Marin and Antoine Baudet, delighted to offer this dive into the past to gamers, always so pampered by the digital and games department. video from the Capuchins library.
