any game thats not a jrpg

jrpgs are boring as fuck

I'm interested. I've become largely the same way especially with retro games and iS is right in there. Have you played TxK?

You might as well watch a movie instead.

I have not, but I don't have anything to play it on (and for whatever reason I find older games much more relaxing). Thanks anyways.
If you liked iS, have you tried Rez? It's not technically retro but I think it's close enough

Chrono trigger is one of my favourite games of all time, but there is no way I can play games where the story is an important component

Isn't that basically any game where you start from the beginning every time?

OutRun, Tetris Attack and Shangai III (Genesis) are my relaxing trio.

Arcade ports (or MAME emulation). Arcade games were designed to last a few minutes (unless you got gud), and can be picked up and enjoyed anytime.

this, just play any arcade game. they're all designed to catch your attention and then kick you off the cabinet as soon as possible.
