Doesn't have the nostalgia, but I enjoyed "How to Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe" by Charles Yu in the same general zone as Ready Player One. It's playful yet dips toes into the serious or heartfelt at times. About a time mechanic who lives in his time machine with his dog, employed to traverse time and fix time machines of others.
