minus-squareover_clox@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down6·1 day agoShould Super Mario Brothers 1 be considered an old game? It depends whether you’ve ever played the game before (or, regarding your question, whether you’ve seen the movie before). If you’ve seen the movie or played the game a half million times, then it’s not new to you. But there’s still plenty of people out there that haven’t seen the movie or played the game you speak of, so it would absolutely be new to them…
minus-squareSanguinePar@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·1 day agoIt would be subjectively new to them, yes. But objectively it’s still an old game. That doesn’t mean it’s bad, irrelevant or whatever, it’s just old. And that’s fine.
