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

    Nothing wrong with playing a game for as long as it holds your interest- especially older games that cost pennies / nothing at all.

    If you’re playing for nostalgia, I assume you have a big backlog of games to get through? Play until you lose interest, then pick up a different game. Just make sure you keep the save! At some point you might want to get back into it without having to play from the start.

    You can use any sort of cloud storage sync to keep a backup of your saves just in case!
