What's everyone playing?
I just hit 10 hours in Earthbound on my Anbernic RG280V. I'm looking forward to trying some more SNES games once I'm finished (Super Mario World, Street Fighter Turbo II, Zelda: Link to the Past, etc.).
Interested to hear what you all are playing? Or, what retro games are on your "to do" list?

Zelda II, I’ve never beaten before so I’m trying to do it with out looking up a guide or using save states. That last one is really hard
If my mom could do it, so could you! I believe in you.
I started a run a while ago and got stuck in Death Mountain. That game is MUCH harder than the first Zelda.
As a kid I could never figure out how to get the river man to let me cross so I couldn’t even get to death mountain. At least I’ve gotten that far this time!
Pretty sure I learned about Bagu's hut in Nintendo Power! 😂
That games goes great with a real NES controller, so you can throw it across the room after dying.
I did this - on the Zelda Collectors' Edition on GameCube, so save States weren't available. I did have to use an emulator to practice the final boss without the 10 min runback 🙄 , but after practicing I repeated the feat back on the official hardware.
I did the whole game without any guide. It was SO satisfying. On both the NES games, if you can read the context clues, every required secret is fairly clear. And the game is really fair! It is hard, it's true, but it's very fair! It felt very good to master the combat. This was a great gaming experience.
Later in life I felt that Dark Souls had very similar vibes except in 3D (and except for a bad feeling from having a heavy story that it's hostile to telling you what it is 🙄)
