Thought I would start a thread and get some traction for this community. What are some of your favorite retro games? My favorite is Super Mario Bros 3.
Favorite game ever is Final Fantasy 6 (FF3 in the states). It’s got that steampunk vibe, the BEST character development, worst villain, and the music SLAPS. Don’t even look at original cartridge prices though, it’ll make you sick.
I played Yet Set Willy a lot :-) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_Set_Willy
Just finished Zelda ToTK, probably going to start up The Minish Cup which is supposed to be good… Picking a fav is hard though. I have most nostalgia for Gameboy and PS1 games
I really need to finish up ToTK… Gameboy and PS1 was a great time. Games felt different back then.
Metroid: Zero Mission is my favorite these days since I recently beat it for the first time. Now I jump into it every few days and enjoy just running around and attacking and bombing and stuff.
Bro, I still replay Shin Megami Tensei for some reason. Every time it gets a re-translation in another console/handheld, I go back to play it and it’s enjoyable to me. Hell, right now I’m waiting until someone translates SMT again, but the one that’s on RPGMaker VX iirc. It seems to have more content added to it.
Every couple of years I kick up the original Diablo game. The game didn’t have all the features of Diablo 2, but it had an amazing creepy atmosphere with an awesome theme… and I had to pull it up. Haunting.
I love the original diablo game! That brings back some good childhood memories!
Straight up Tetris :p Or, Commander Keen 4
Game Boy tetris has always been my favorite version. Check out the Rosy Retrospection romhack for the GB game with some nice quality-of-life improvements.
