** Pretty much any of the Videlectrix games on ''[[Homestar Runner]]'' (with the exception of ''Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People''): ''Peasant's Quest'' is at least as good, if not actually better, as many of its "contemporaries" which it mimics, such as ''[[Leisure Suit Larry]]''.
*** To add to the retrauxness, the employees of Videlectrix are the Brothers Chaps dressed up in polo shirts and fake mustaches. And their games are programmed on an Apple IIe.
** Furthermore, they occasionally make toons in their own older style, like [https://web.archive.org/web/20131104135130/http://www.homestarrunner.com/stuckincraw.html "The Homestar Runner Gets Something Stuck In His Craw"].
** Let's not forget [http://www.homestarrunner.com/cz110.html "Coach Z's 110%"], which is made in the style of an old [[Infomercial]].
* In episode 35 of ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series|Yu-Gi-Oh the Abridged Series]]'', a [[Clip Show]], Yami asks Kaiba if he remembers the time the two of them first met, which is shown as 'a time when the video quality wasn't very good, and the audio was all muffled and scratchy'. Clips from the first episode are used in black and white, with a fake moustache and monicle painted onto Kaiba, and a 'silent movie' motif with old-style dialogue printed on the screen and an upbeat piano theme.
