True. Yet when I tried to replay games I have the fondest of memories of, it often is just 99% nostalgia. Seeing all the flaws, the horrible ui, the missing QoL we just expect nowadays l etc. I don’t care much for gfx, but it’s hard to really get into those again.
Music, yeah sure. Good music does not age.
Movies…depends. Some age horribly 😁
For books I rarely find time, but they’re timeless too.

our imaginations were doing a lot more than we gave them credit for with some of those old ones.
we liked writing lyrics to the mario brothers songs though. Mario Brothers 3 had “I am roy! The sailor boy! My life here is a joy! / I am roy! The sailor boy! My life here is a joy! / I like to eat rice (and cake) [repeated until you get back to I am Roy the sailor boy]” is probably the only one i remember
True that. I even enjoyed pong. 8 pixels, 3 of them moving 😁
As the Atari was my last console, I never played a single Mario or Zelda…I have to admit that 😊
