    Oh my God, save states all the most amazing thing ever. Zelda is so fucking hard, sometimes it takes me 10 times to try to get through a room. Thank God, I can keep going back.

      Save states are amazing because I don’t have 8 hours per day to go back and keep retrying like I did as a kid.

        Also, that muscle memory. My little brother, and I discovered upon revisiting these old games that they were incredibly incredibly difficult, even by today’s standards. Basically, for a lot of them, the only way to do well let alone beat them with it develop some serious muscle memory.
