    Our first official poster for this year's Retro Matsuri. It looks best if you print it on an ImageWriter II, but any printer will do.

    things you should do at RetMat: check out the Dreamcast, especially if you've never seen/played one before, and extra especially if you have

    Retro Blast 💫

    The SEGA Dreamcast era was such a fun time and it deserved to be around so much longer than it was.

What came out in 2006?

Retro Matsuri is all about the stylings of classic anime and games. Usually, vintage means anything at least 20 years old. So let's take a look at 2006, the most recent year something might qualify as vintage.

What does "retro" mean?

Retro is a term that refers to things that display characteristics of the past. This might mean something genuinely old, like Space Invaders, or something that has a deliberately 'vintage' style, like Pizza Tower.

Retro Matsuri celebrates the anime and video games of the 1970s until 20 years ago (that's 2006 for this year), as well as modern games and anime that have a retro touch.
