UN Squadron is one of my favorite games from my childhood. Got it at release. Played just a couple of weeks ago but I couldn't finish the last levels so I put it down.
In the beginning I marked things I would get back to but that made me fast travel a lot which was boring so if I see something new now like a kokiri seed way in the distance I go there and get it. Same with shrines and puzzles. I don't really skip things I come across saving myself the hassle of having to mark stuff.
Nintendo stole Steep lore by having you slide on your shield! Steep is really Zelda but another timeline.
I play just as many retro games as new games. Both because of nostalgia and because some of them just holds up today. I own a ton of consoles, a framemeister and handhelds and I got a beefy pc for whatever I want like retroarch and dolphin. I use a little bit of everything. I like having options but I'm particularly fond of new 3ds 1:1 nes/snes pixelmapping.
HOT tips if you never played them (because I didn't myself until recently)
Terranigma. It's just great if you loved Mana/Evermore.
Super Metroid. Excellent game. Plays great, sounds great and looks great. Classic.
Earthbound. Took me by surprise. I've played a lot of JRPGs but this felt like it was made today. Medium grinding.
I bought and played James Bond 007 on gameboy at release and enjoyed it. It's a little bit underrated for a gameboy game I think. It's got adventure game elements. Check it out.
...and you can rent half a joycon controller halfway charged for two weeks if you return it with at least half of its battery left to ANY nintendo retail store in your area as long as half of their staff has been employed at least half of the duration of the first period of the FUCK OFF!
