    This is where selective memory wiping would be awesome . Can you imagine how awesome this could be to replace games like this, smw, and botw again for the first time (as long as there are no negative side effects from the process). I would love to replay the greatest heavyweights of Nintendo again for the first time.

      You’re thinking small. Imagine being able to play outer wilds for the first time whenever you want. Or portal 2. Or inscryption

          Inscryption and Outer Wilds have unforgettable twists that will never be the same on any future replays. Portal 2 has some of the funniest dialogue ever.

          Mario 3, Mario World, and Breath of the Wild all were revolutionary games, but offer nothing that wouldn’t be just as cool on a second playthrough.

          Further, the existence of Mario Maker and Tears of the Kingdom would make a blind playthrough of older games underwhelming, unless you were willing to erase your memory of all games since the release of the target game.
