i feel like we have the terms vintage for REALLY old stuff, retro for quite old things, and then there’s a term missing for stuff that’s from ~1990-2005-ish, which is what the xbox 360 and wii fall into.
you can associate the periods roughly with materials: vintage is solid wood and steel, retro is thin wood/wood veneer and thick beige plastic, and the new category is thin black/white plastic
