Who the hell lists it as retro?

If you're talking about our review section, I guess it's just the place where it's most fitting. It would be senseless to create a "last two gens" section.

Yeah, i agree. it doesn't really feel right to call a gamecube a "RETRO" console.

I think it's more of a legacy system than a retro system

I remember you calling it retro shortly after you came here.

No, it's really not. It's only in that part of the forum because it really doesn't belong anywhere else, either.
