What hurts the most is the generalization that my childhood was 'brief'...ugh lol. I member safe codes for the NES/SNES gen and then marveling at PS1/PS2 memory cards and Dreamcast VMUs. Good times
I play them for two reasons. One is entirely nostalgia driven and the other is simple because they were complete, well thought out video games. The latter is something more of a rarity nowadays. In no particular order I revisit as often as possible: MegaMan 2, River City Ransom, F Zero, Ninja Gaiden, Jackal, Punch Out and Nemos Dream World on NES. Chrono Trigger, Super Mario World, Street Fighter 2, Micro Machines, MK2 and Killer Instinct on SNES. Final Fantasy 7 and 9, Jet Moto, Chrono Cross, Battle Arena Toshinden and Jumping Flash on PS1. Shenmue 1 and 2, Skies of Arcadia, Dynamite Cop and Sword of the Beserk on DC. After that Era the Rose tint wears off somewhat and it's less and less for each gen. Couple ps2-4 games. The Halos and Gears from 360 era.
