I just hit 10 hours in Earthbound on my Anbernic RG280V. I’m looking forward to trying some more SNES games once I’m finished (Super Mario World, Street Fighter Turbo II, Zelda: Link to the Past, etc.).

Interested to hear what you all are playing? Or, what retro games are on your “to do” list?

With the 25th anniversary update out, I’ve been loving playing through the original Half Life again.

TFW you’re old enough that a game you bought on release becomes “retro”

“A” game? v.v creaky old person noises

Same, but I have never gotten more than a third of the way through… and I’ve owned it for 20+ years.

If you missed it, the game was free until the 20th. It’s only ¢99 right now.

I have the PS2 port which I have never completed. I think it comes with Blue Shift as well, so that will be my next game on the backlog once I finish Zelda II

Replaying Super Mario World for SNES with my five-year-old. First time for him, he loves Yoshi. I haven’t really played it all the way through in about a decade; my wife and I did it together when we were engaged, was the last time.

It holds up SO WELL!

Sometime’s you go back to an old favorite and you can’t figure out how you played it for so long back in the day. But Mario World, despite being the first game for it, is still one of, if not THE best SNES game.

Fuck those ghost houses though.

I can’t wait to do this with my kid, he’s currently 12 months so I’ve still got a while to go. Super Mario world is a must, and the donkey Kong country games too 😁

Built an arcade machine running MAME. We have been playing a lot of Boogie Wings and Windjammers.

We also had fun playing through Leisure Suit Larry 1 a couple of weeks ago :)

I just started a playthrough of the SNES version of Super Mario RPG. I’ve gotten pretty far but have never actually completed it, so I aim to this time around.

Earthbound - never played this so I’m looking forward to it for my next retro play through after recently finishing a replay of both A Link to the Past and Golden Sun 1 & 2.

Afterward, it’s the Soul Blazer trilogy. I’ve only played Illusion of Gaia, and perhaps an hour of Terranigma. I loved Gaia, and remember really liking the bit I’ve played of Terranigma.

I played it long ago in emulations in the 2000s it had anti piracy thing where it prevents you from progressing. How do I know it’s a patched version?
