I loved the sparing way you've written this, and the balance of warmth and melancholy. I have game saves on the shelf that my sister left behind - this has helped me think about the process of revisiting them.
A balance of warmth and melancholy is my flavor of nostalgia, so I'm happy to hear that this is reflected in writing. Thank you, I hope you enjoy revisiting your games as much as I did for this little piece.
