im not a big gamer but like retro games, theyre nice, simple(sometimes) and runs great on my potato.
but i feel like i keep losing interest for some reason. it might just be because its not my thing but im too stubborn to accept it.
i have free time, a controller, know how to use an emulator and really wanna play the game.
im playing(ive been on hiatus for over a month) zelda a minish cap and my save got accident deleted permanently and had to restart.
i plan on playing, chrono trigger, zelda ocarina of time, starfox and simillar games.
do you have any “gateway” game i should play first or some other advice?
tl;dr i wanna play retro but keep losing interest. what is easy to get into or bits of advice?
sorry for so much text btw thnks
I’d also recommend installing whatever quality of life mods/romhacks/emulator settings you can find. Gaming has changed a lot over the years and our brains expect different things than they used to.
I used to love Gen3 Pokemon growing up, but playing it now feels unbearably slow, but it’s a lot nicer with a fast forward setting. Same with adding text speed up cheats, faster running cheats, etc.
That, and I’d recommend starting with remakes of popular retro games to get hooked. Usually they have some revamping of control schemes or graphics that match your expectations a bit better. Then once you get the momentum going, expand from there.
