Nostalgia is the best thing about /vr/. It's what makes games feel magical. People should feel envious that they have nostalgia and memories associated with any given game. That means they enjoyed it and it means a lot more to them than it ever can to you. It shouldn't be a dirty word.

I think many of us play old games not because of nostalgia, but as "lets play all those games I wanted to play but couldnt when I was a kid".

Having a hacked wii is like being the son of a millionaire in 1995.

on topic
The only music that makes me teary is the music of the ending of Yoshis Island, a game I dont even like, although I think it is genius in its art design.
It just gives me a Mary Poppins vibe of being a little kid and knowing you will never see again someone who took care of you.

Thanks for sharing. Would you happen to know how to get the full album? Artist says "free download on soundcloud" but there isn't any way to get it https://soundcloud.com/jeremiah-sun/sets/link-awakening-orchestral-arrangement

Irrevelant. I've got no nostalgia either, yet I got a different opinio, saying things like this only perpetuate the idea that nostalgia makes old games good.

I say its the best one because it got the best overworld, it was amazing on the exploration aspect, and argueably the best music of the series. Its only problem was the dungeon aesthetics, which was bricks, caves, bricks & caves.

The same goes for the ending credits theme.

Both songs bring me back to a time when all I had to worry about was where to find the next Pokemon and how I'd get there.

God this just takes me back. It's the perfect theme that celebrates being a child and sitting at the N64 for hours with friends and siblings playing yelling and having a grand time. It celebrates a childlike innocence and fun that gaming had for me, the best memories I really have of being a kid involve nostalgia and videogames.

Growing up sucks, losing innocence sucks. I want to go back. It's so comfy in my nostalgia. I miss those cold winter nights in pajamas playing Mario Party with my brothers, trying not to make too much noise so we don't wake mom and dad because we had school the next day.
