My suggestions.

DOS: Phantasmgoria (great point & click horror game with really cheesy scenes PLUS the musical score is really good). If you want something really old, I'd suggest Jill of the Jungle. Old style platformer with your character turning into different creatures. (The jumping mechanics are a bit unrefined, but it's still entertaining.) Lemmings are a go-to puzzle game - use your mouse and different skills to solve puzzles.


NES - Bubble Bobble (for the true experience - two players!)

SNES - Super Castlevania 4, TMNT: Turtles in Time (still holds up as one of the better beat 'em ups), Samurai Shodown/Spirits, EARTHBOUND (seriously, this is one of the games everyone must play - it's an RPG with simple but good mechanics and really interesting characters).

GB - Pokemon TCG (pretty authentic experience, although it's on the easy side), Pokemon Yellow, Wario Land 3, Super Mario Land (weird real world stuff in mario)...

GBA - Seconding Minish Cap. Pokemon Emerald for the Kanto experience.

N64 - I have no idea, I stopped playing video games at this time. Kirby and the Crystal Shards is good, athough. I know a lot of people like Blast Corps.

@Felek666 only if you install windows xp thru dos and install doom 3 that way, butdosbox emulates a pentium ii so i bet the fps would be a little trashy

@Boogieboo6 any of the metroid style castlevania games are a winner. I recently found a co-op one, that I guess was ps3, on Playstation now.

@weedz : a co-op metroidvania?
what's its name? I'm curious about it now.

@Cyan Castlevania: Harmony of Despair I think. Only the PS3 had local co op. The Xbox 360 had online co op. Co op mode was basically a boss rush. I found it on Wikipedia.

    Look, it's China. They know what it's like when you give a poll to half a billion trolls.

    How much dollar do you think it is?

    ONE MILLION DOLLA
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I know the pricing of electronics nowadays isn't "how much it actually costs" but "how much we can get away with", but putting up a poll is just cynical.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Probably $150 someone said Anbernic said around the same price as rg556
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    you know which game i wish they would rerelease

    that game's engine is really fucking intensive so it runs like literal shit on xbox 360 and ps3
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Nah I'm getting value creep again. I look at a $50 console "but for just a few more dollars you could get XYZ" and I end up considering the Steam Deck.

    like the lighting in that game was genuinely so good
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Not getting dragged into that again.
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    i dont get why they didn't port the one game that ran the worst on consoles, to pc
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    like you port everything to pc except the one game where it would make the most sense. why. what do you gain from this
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    is sega just personally fucking with me? are they laughing while watching me through my kinect camera as i get up to restart my xbox for the third time because the game froze again
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Buy handhelds from five below better quality
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Valve probably going to do another refresh of the deck this fall with rog ally like specs tbh
  • Veho @ Veho:
    A smaller form factor would be nice too.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    A shield portable 2 would be nice aye Nvidia
