it could be worth mentioning "hey i'm dude and i make music with a thing" at some shows just so they're like "hey check it out, dude isn't just playing songs off an ipod!"
then again some people will still think that regardless, so maybe it pays to not give a shit!

what would be so different?

No we'll say chiptune has sold out and move on to other niche-y music.
But seriously I fear for the day when chiptune becomes fully "mainstream."

chiptune can sell out without you selling out. if the standard perception of low-bit music is dance music and covers then if your tunes sound like Art Bears kicking an atari ST to death you are still an underground lich king

Yeah, but 8-bit isn't necessarily chiptune.

Start calling you music "Nintendocore" and all the kids with the funny Japanese cartoon haircuts will start throwing money at you.
