I’m not only going to recommend The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask, but the side quests in the game because they are more fleshed out and interesting than anything I’ve played. A few I remember enjoying from when I was 9 are the quests to get the Romani Mask, the Couple’s Mask, and the Circus Leader Mask.

i cannot remember a first playthrough of any game i’ve ever played that was as enchanting as this. it was the wondrous adventure that the original zelda from 1986 was gesturing at but finally fully realized with the aid of modern technology and design. especially in the era it came out, when open-world games were at the absolute peak of bloodless checklists and cocomelon design, a game that was this single-mindedly committed to atmosphere, exploration, and wonder was such an unbelievable breath of fresh air (pardon the pun).
at the time it came out, i was falling out of love with gaming broadly, and botw is probably singlehandedly responsible for reigniting my love for videogames. it made me feel a kind of wonder that i genuinely did not think i was capable of feeling anymore, and it reminded me of the wholly unique kind of engagement that interactive art can provide that nothing else can. if you somehow haven‘t played it yet, i would literally recommend it to everyone. absolute fucking masterpiece.

some of these can be played on switch (if you have the online subscription) but all of them can be emulated pretty easily (especially if ur on mac):
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time –– first game in this series i played and it's silly and serious and makes you think deep about growing up
Super Mario 64 –– really accessible 3D platformer game that encourages experimentation and has very fun movement!
Metroid: Fusion –– a great entry point into an incredible series. the bosses are tough but the world is so immersive and creepy and the character you play as is a badass
WarioWare –– infinite games. so many wacky funny fun minigames
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney –– just a visual novel game and while the detective parts are a little boring the courtroom scenes are such a rollercoaster
Yoshi's Island –– ur yoshi and you help bring baby mario back to his parents

I really like the style of soccer jerseys but don’t watch much of the sport. I wish I could wear them, but not be considered a poser.

I’ve just started listening to them and am completely enthralled. They have really cool style and I aspire to be just like them.
