I’ve got a really weird relationship with gaming in the sense that I’ve been exclusively Nintendo until like 6 years ago. There’s a lot that I haven’t played that I should have, and I’ve had little insensitive to start old series.

You've missed out on a lot. Thankfully some games in the past six years have been relatively good, and a few that are just fucking yes. Hell, if you don't feel like playing the Metal Gear games, there's youtube videos called Metal Gear Solid (enter number/name here)  the movie. Has all the important parts packaged into a few hour long youtube video.
