Honestly looks like it should be under Retraux.
Illuminate!
Agreed.

Yeah, Retraux sounds right here.

Agreed.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure Pureness
Actually, upon further thought, retraux seems less accurate because it doesn't actually look old... it just takes its inspiration from an older medium. For example, no one is going to look at the book and think "oh gee, that's a book from the 80's." Strictly speaking, something retraux would be more along the lines of aping the Worlds of Power books or something.
That said, Pac Man Fever seems worse since that's more about a misconception, but retraux definitely isn't perfect either.

Hmm. Maybe Genre Throwback?
The Protomen enhanced my life.
That's the one. Yeah. That's perfect.

The Literature.Press Start children's books are about a fictional video game series that's pretty heavily steeped in 80's tropes— 8-bit pixel art, Save the Princess plots, and retro-style systems. It was originally under Pac Man Fever, but after reading the books all of that felt more deliberately retro than PMF's requirement of being shallow (especially since as the series went on the plots became a bit more complex and many characters are recurring), so I put it under Retraux. PrincessPandaTrope then deleted Retraux and put it back under Pac Man Fever with a "Still." edit reason.
Can anyone help settle this?
