You complete Story of Thor and I'll complete Super Metroid. Thor takes around 6-7 hours, according to Howlongtobeat.com that's roughly what I'd have left of Super Metroid. Choose Landstalker instead if you want, but that's a couple of hours longer. Both are highly placed on my list of 16-bit goodness.
Deadline is September 1st, double failure results in us both giving £20 to charity, a winner and a loser results in the loser buying the the winner a 3DS game of the victor's choice, double success results in pats on the back all round and two excellent games played. You in?

Landstalker is as close to on par with aLttP as you'll get with a 16-bit game, with the added freshness of isometric unusualness. You'll like definitely like Thor.

By the way, even aged 32 this succeeded in annoying me. Well played.
