Not retro but the PS2 Resident Evil clone is much better.

Harvest Moon.

Any incarnation of it. I've heard it's good and it's addictive, etc. I just can't do it.

Just use a walkthrough so you can cruise through it. It's not bad but it's not worth really investing time into either.

the metroid and megaman series

what game is that?

probably Cold Fear or X Files: Resist or Serve

It's really good once you get used to the weird arrows to navigate through the levels. But yeah that can be a pain in the ass.

Castlevania SOTN

I want to love it just like everyone else does, and trust, me, I tried. The sprites and music are so cool, but on a technical standpoint, the game is atrocious. Both vertical and horizontal level design are flawed, every single area it's just a long corridor/stair, or a meaningless platform fest, with the same set of enemies spawning every 3 meters just so you can grind exp without breaking the pace. And almost every secret area you run into contains an item that is either obsolete by the time you find it, or complete garbage. It doesn't help that the second half of the game is just an inverted version of the castle with stronger enemies.

Seriously, this game had so much potential, but they fucked up badly.

Planet of the Apes PS1

The cover art is misleading, it has nothing to do with Tim Burton's shitty movie, it has more in common with the first sequel to the original. I'm a fan of the old film series and I want to like this one but it's so fucking frustrating. The controls are shit and enemies are overpowered.

Resist or Serve. A lot more action and feels a lot more like the show rather than something that shares the name.

Ocarina of Time

No really, not bait, I started it 3 fucking times, played a few hours and dropped it, it just doesn't capture me.

I'm thinking of trying luck with Majora's Mask.

Same here. You're not alone.
>>
>>3271889
Backing you up, I can't enjoy it either. The hitstop in particular bothers the fuck out of me.

Mario 64. Ever since I was younger, I tried to like it because everyone around me liked it, but it just felt too boring, and the camera always bothered the shit out of me.

Alundra. Fucking tried it couple of times but nope, nothing.

>>3269959

Retro or not, I just can't get into simulation games at all. I can recognize their quality, but they just make me feel like I'd be better served making my own adventures IRL.
