Just use specialised programs, they make your life easier. Aseprite only cost 15$ and include both "colour palette" and animation tools so you're sure to meet the low colour-count limitations, while you can still use layers and oinion-skin method to animate. GraphicGale also include tools for tilesets, it's less beginner-friendly but should be no problem for a professional

Good to remember that in traditional pixel art, it isn't just a matter of lower resolution, there usually a very limited color pallet to keep in mind as well. Older game consoles could only display so many colors and one had to be reserved as transparent.

That didn't mean he needed to confine himself to that, but some pixel artists do. Sometimes just for the style, sometimes because the software they're working with (some game maker engines) required it. I thought it with mention, since I sometimes use it as a hobbyist pixel artist myself. One of the key pieces of software I use- Aseprite -has various palette selections based on game consoles from the past, just you can achieve that "authentic" look.

Like he said, pixel art wasnt an art style back in the day. The game designers didn't know they were doing something that nowadays is called pixel art. So back in the day, these images were not supposed to be seen from a small distance, because of the restriction of resolution to smoothly paint images. But yes, nowadays you can create these low res images as an intentional art style to be closely seen as such. There is still a difference in terms of technique and looks, i.e. bleeding from the tv screens back in the day vs now

if, when scaling with the "nearest neighbor" resampler, the scale is not a multiple of the original one, the "pixels" will be of different sizes, some a little narrower, some a little wider. It is better to either only scale in multiples of the original size, or to a size larger than the target with the "nearest neighbor", and then slightly reduce to the desired size with an anti-aliasing resampler.

I know this tutorial is for Photoshop, but I do my Pixel art on Adobe Illustrator. If you create a 1600px by 1600px document. Use the "Rectangular Grid Tool" and click once and make the size the same pixels as the document. And in horizontal and vertical dividers, do 1 less than the amount of pixels you want. For example if you want a 32 pixel by 32 pixel artwork, then put 31, for 64 you put 63. Then you can just use the live paint bucket tool and fill in colors pixel by pixel.
