There are many websites and youtube channels on retrogaming but I have
always assumed that the subject is too specialised to appear on mainstream television. But recently I came across https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GameCenter_CX .This has been going on since 2003 and there have even been DVD releases ! Wow. So I was wondering whether you know of similar examples from any country. I don't. I
remember coming across a wikipedia article a while ago about a similar television programme in France but it didn't do well. I haven't kept a
link.
Don't get too hung up on how old the games have to be to be considered "retro" but the wikipedia article gives you an idea.

Does it count if the programme itself is retro? ie if the programme was recorded in 198x featuring the latest releases, which are now considered retro?
Or are to specifically looking for people playing games from an era
prior to the one they were in?
