However, discussion about newer platforms is a allowed as discussion, just not as a top-level post. r/retrogaming is for posts about vintage gaming: 5th gen platforms and earlier. For more information please Reddit's self-promotion rules here. (No live streams, though.) However, we ask that your self promotional content not be more than around 10 percent of your total posts. It's perfectly okay to post your YouTube video, blog, or kickstarter here. It's all good here as long as it's gaming from the 70s, 80s, or 90s (or before).
