Since they announced the remake of Super Mario RPG, I’ve found myself playing the original again.

In fact, I have a few classics that I still play regularly.

  • Zelda ALttP
  • Super Metroid
  • Metroid Prime (Switch remaster is 🔥)
  • Kirby Air Ride (City Trial is still my go-to party game with my 30 year old friends)
  • Super Mario 64

What about you guys?

    … for the SNES. Those were the games I grew up with and every other year I get the itch to replay one of those. I’ve considered playing the remake of SoM 2 but the demo felt bland and off to me.

    On a related note, I would totally buy each of those for the Switch so I could play them on a proper handheld, but the current system with the yearly subscription that basically only rents those games to the end user and forces them to stay online, is something I find off-putting. I’d much rather just pay once and be done, like with every other game in the eShop.

      Been playing since Red and Blue. I always go back to the remakes for HGSS. I think they were some of the best. While maybe not retro being remakes, I still say they belong.

      Mario World world map is like a Mario Kart track at this point. Every year we take another lap.

      Done this twice since Nintendo put it on the virtual console. Still such a fantastically funny and entertaining game.

        Love the OG! I’ve heard Thousand Year Door is even better but I haven’t gotten around to playing it.

    Apparently Pikmin 1 if that counts as a classic. Played it first last week, and it’s been amazing. Got the rest of the series straight after.

    If that doesn’t count, I still regularly play Super Mario 64, which is one of my all time favorite games period.
