Do you consider "retro" to be a specific time period or anything 20+ years old? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

We have modernism and also post-modernism that are tied to a specific range of dates. I'm wondering if people feel the same way for "retro"

It's probably supposed to mean 20+ years old. But next year IDK if I'll be able to call Mass Effect and Crysis "retro games"
