Just don't play Nintendo games lol. That's what I do. I didn't grow up with these 'classics' and I don't feel like getting into these as an adult. 🤷‍♂️

just don't do it

Oh, that's a good idea. Never thought of just tossing my entire childhood and lifetime hobby away because a stranger thinks keeping up with less than a terabyte of old games is hard.

Lmao. Some of us aren't vegetables.

Yeah, let’s just throw away everything and never touch childhood games or even games that you do enjoy on actual good hardware. Just because a stranger deems it necessary. Such as good idea /sarcasm

That's what I do.

Alright, good for you.

I didn't grow up with these 'classics'

Here’s the reason, you might not want to play them now and others do. As someone who did grow up with these games, I love to play them but hate Nintendo and their crappy hardware.

I can enjoy them through emulation and on a good PC. So I will (and others probably).

and I don't feel like getting into these as an adult. 🤷‍♂️

Okay then don’t?
