I think zelda games have spoiled me for retro games because every aspect of them is so polished and butter smooth

Doom and Doom II, I recommend playing them with GZDoom.

Donkey Kong 94 for the Gameboy. The game is so compact and well executed.

If you're in the mood for something that'll wrack your brain, try Sutte Hakkun for the SNES. It's a polished and modern-feeling puzzle platformer with a lovely presentation and even built-in savestates. It is also very elegant about making full, creative use of every mechanic it introduces. One of my favorite puzzle games.

Kid Chameleon 1000%. theres so many levels and its hard as fuck so you could probably play it forever

if youre not a genesis person, though, maybe Mr. Gimmick for the NES? its also kinda hard but the lil guy you play as is cute

Dunno how you could think Links awakening is not jank. Oracle games (as per your pic), yeah they're polished, but not LA.
Anyway, DKC 1,2,3 & Yoshi's island are very clean SNES games

Doom has some jank if you play it on an accurate sourceport. Still worth playing though.

Yeah, I specifically recommended GZDoom because I didn't want them looking up the most "accurate"/vanilla port and finding Chocolate Doom, which feels janky as hell.

Good call. Besides, GZDoom is what most mods require these days.

Super Mario World is still the gold standard of 2D platforming
Super Metroid is still the gold standard or 2D action adventure
