I genuinely feel.like this at work sometimes, I'll talk games with a dude 10 years younger than me who's frustrated with whatever some online shooter did and I'm like 'I unlocked the x cup in zero on the n64 and it was a white knuckle thrill. Got close to a personal best on Wild Guns and ran through the first Castlevanis.' I played 3 games and had a sick time and he seems to just get mad at one at a time. The NES was my first console and I've always been more on the retro side of things post childhood and I think I just approach vidya games different than the kids now. I'm still arcade brained a bit.
You missed absolutely nothing, but they are all really big famous games with massive amounts of praise (somehow) from both players and media
The last big budget slop I've played that wasn't Zelda was new Vegas and I regret nothing at all
