Yeah it's like they wanted to capitalize on the 80s and 90s nostalgia and figured retro is retro with some of the stuff.

At least with the Walkman it can have a 'the older original models were more robust than the crappy plastic ones built later' excuse. And that CDs and Discmen would be less durable through an apocalypse as well.
