    No systems are old until they're retired. Many of them aren't even old after that.

    A game being old really depends on its popularity. For example, games like Final Fantasy VII and Super Mario Brothers 3 are not old yet, whereas Need For Speed 4 (which came out years later) is. It's not about its age. In fact, classics never get old, so you won't have to worry about any Final Fantasy games ever getting old.

    PlayStation 2 can't be old yet because no one has a PlayStation 3 yet. It's too expensive and there aren't any games for it worth buying yet. PlayStation 2 is a current system, whereas PlayStation 3 is a new system.

    Atari is old. NES is getting there. SNES is far from old. However, N64 was the first system to be an exception to my rule. It was old the day after it came out. SNES is the best Nintendo system. That's why Sony built on it for their PlayStation. That and it was originally meant to be an attachment for it. Whereas Nintendo just kept going down and down until no one bought their stuff anymore. I may be wrong, but I believe they said they weren't going to release any new systems if the GameCube flopped. And it did. And they still released the Wii. That makes them liars. And I was looking forward to Zelda games on my PS2. Damn. This is a lot longer than I intended it to be. Better just end it now.
