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 πŸ”₯)
  • 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?

Super Mario World will always be my go-to.

Super Mario 3, there is just something into it that I just keep coming back to.

[–] Frankelton@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Does Pokemon count? Because that's forever going to be my jam.

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.

  • Secret of Mana 1+2
  • Terranigma
  • Chrono Trigger
  • Earthbound
  • ALttP

... 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.

I've never really stopped playing Super Mario World.

[–] redsol2@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

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

[–] iliketurtles@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Ocarina of Time, Super Metroid, NBA Jam, NFL Blitz....I'll probably still be playing these when I'm in a nursing home lol

[–] jeebus@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Super Metroid and Super Marioa64 are masterpieces.

[–] Zoness@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Gotta be Star Fox 64 for me

Username checks out.

would love to do an OG Zelda playthrough with my kid and then try to beat the second quest

[–] corLeone@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Oot and MM are always fun to replay

[–] neoman4426@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Super Mario RPG has a pretty fun randomizer I'll sometimes go back for a run in. Been a while since I have, but with the remake coming up might get back into it.

[–] chainsawrobot@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

The classics like Super Metroid, Turtles In Time, F-Zero and Link to the Past are always on rotation but I always love to pop on Cybernator (aka Assault Suits Valken) for a good run and gun mech time. Time Trax is another one not mentioned often but is nostalgic for me.

[–] TheLameSauce@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If I still had my 64 I'd break out paper mario once a year.

[–] _hauf@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] redsol2@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] inatsera@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

honestly, i'm always running so far behind on my backlog that i rarely get to replay games. mario world/mario 64 is what i replay when they get bumped into a new service

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.

[–] CaptainCimmeria@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Ocarina of Time A Link to The Past Mario 64 Super Mario World Smash 64

[–] roxas@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Super Mario Bros 3 and Pokemon Crystal are games that I always come back to, so many memories.

[–] ldacampelo@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago

Super Mario RPG Super Metroid Donkey Kong Country 1, 2 and 3.

Beat those games so many times.

[–] specseaweed@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ice Hockey and Golf. Both fantastic.

[–] FlavorPacket@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Ice Hockey was SO good! I still fire that one up from time to time.
