FUNK: 0Rank: Fresh Spider Monkey
Space invaders
I was a big fan of Rick Dangerous and Hot Rod on the old computerbox.
The Super Nintendo is one of the first things that comes to mind when I think of retro games.
The Super Nintendo not only has a great library of games, but they’ve all held up really well 30 years later.
Of course, there’s one of the most iconic games on the system, Super Mario World. It was apparently Shigeru Miyamoto’s (Mario’s Initial Creator) favourite Mario game until Super Mario Odyssey came out.
EarthBound has also been a fan favourite and a cult classic for ages. One of the highest-rated RPGs not only on the Super Nintendo but of all time.
Final Fantasy also had some great games on the system that are very well respected but I won’t go too in-depth with them.
I could talk about this system for a while, but I won’t bother. I need to sleep.
The SNES had some of the most wonderful JRPGs in my opinion. Final Fantasy and Chrono Trigger. Need I say more?
This topic is now FEATURED!
Maybe some of you will find this interesting. My first PC was a ZX Spectrum clone – it loaded games from CASSETTES, using an external cassette player connected to the computer! It was the early ’90s in Eastern Europe. Here are some of the cassettes from my collection (you couldn’t find original games, only “compilations” like these):
I seem to have lost the cassette that had it, but the game I played the most was called Heartbroken, I loved it:
Pong was like the first game to actually do well i think. I’ll find an article about it and edit this later.
EDIT: here
