Civilization is the easy pick.
So is Rollercoaster Tycoon. (RCT4 isn't out on PC yet, so it doesn't count.)
More controversially, I'll choose Tropico. While the first on is beloved, it's too. Damn. Slow. And while the second one was more streamlined and entertaining, pirates just aren't as fun as the Banana Republic. Then Tropico 3 and 4 were very improved versions of the first one, so hopefully Tropico 5 continues the trend.
I've heard that The Shining Force does this too, but western audiences will never find out, will we?
