* ''[[Eversion]]'' is a very 8-bit-like game released in 2008. The cute, low-res graphics, however, are a facade for the game's {{spoiler|much more sinister side}}.
* ''[[Wario Ware]]: Smooth Moves'' is full of Retraux, like the 9-Volt retro stages and the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWB8J6YxVXQ Ashley's Theme title cards] to the character intros.
* The flashbacks in the ''[[Final Fantasy IV the After Years|Final Fantasy IV: The After Years]]'' (including a playable one in Porom's chapter) are deliberately done in the same style as the the original SNES version of ''[[Final Fantasy IV]]''. The rest of the game looks more like ''[[Final Fantasy VI]]'', which at first makes it appear as an example, but the game was originally made for cell phones incapable of the graphics of later ''Final Fantasy'' games.
** ''[[Final Fantasy: theThe 4 Heroes of Light]]'' is a [[George Lucas Throwback]] intentionally modeled after ''[[Final Fantasy III]].'' The soundtrack is all partially composed with 8-bit samples to invoke an "old-school" effect.
* ''[[Castlevania]]: [[Symphony of the Night]]'''s Prologue uses the HUD from its predecessor, ''[[Castlevania Rondo of Blood|Rondo of Blood]]'', which makes sense as it's a pseudo-flashback to ''Rondo'' and the game is a direct sequel to it. Richter and Maria modes also make use of this HUD.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQ6VA1loiPw The sixth level] of ''[[Parappa the Rapper]] 2'' is done with graphics and music resembling old 8-bit video games, and gets progressively less detailed as your performance dips into the "bad" and "awful" levels.
