The thread's title is ambiguous, but I read it as "games for classic consoles", not "classic games for any console". A classic console would be, I suppose, anything up to the 5th gen (Sat, N64 PS1).NightmareLuna said:

Well according to you, 4 generations ago. Or just genesis...SageRuffin said:
Anyways i have to agree with like the third post
This game was amazing and i still sometimes go back and play it. (The genesis collection on psp/ps2/ps3 has it... don't judge me)Snotnarok said:
I didn't really play many games on genesis era/previous. Mainly because i was like 3 when the ps1 came out (1994... according to wikipedia) But i'll try to keep as many as i can from that generation.
Shining Force 2-Tactical game that i still consider to be one of the best turn based games. Don't think it's as RNG friendly as Fire Emblem.
X-men(genesis)- That was a good game right...? Right?
Beyond Oasis- This RPG while somewhat lacking in story (if i can recall) had fun and addicting gameplay.
And last but not least
Gunstar Heroes! Oh man mindless countless hours have been drained into this game that i didn't even own. Me and my brother had to save up our money to rent it from blockbuster. And 5 bucks to 2 kids who don't get allowance or lunch money is damn hard. Still consider that to one of the better shooters i've played as well. Go out and play it on the wii. Not like yours is getting used atm. only 8 dollars
Though I did play the SNES and owned a Sega Megadrive I only really remember games from the N64/PS onwards so:
FFVII
Classic, hands down one of the best RPG's of all time and universally recognised as such. Personally my first FF and it got me into the series and RPG's as a whole when I was a kid.
Ocarina of Time
Well duh, what a game. I must have played it through a dozen times when I was young and after recently unearthing my old N64 I've done it a couple more times. Endlessly fun to revisit and just a neat game through and through.
Pokemon Stadium
Whut? I'm cheating basically
This is to include Red/Blue and the awesome fun of multiplayer. Both games were staples of my childhood and this made it oh so much more fun. Even enjoyed those minigames.
Super Smash Bros.
Maybe not an obvious choice, I don't know. Regardless I loved this game, me and my friends had epic deathmatches ALL the time and my god what fun times they were. Even solo it had massive potential and I love that everyone had their own epic moments in the game, completely spontaneous and undoubtedly awesome.
Goldeneye/Mario Kart64 (I cheat!)
Two amazing multiplayer games which just...yeah they are so well known and loved I don't even need to describe them.
Bond might be more fun in single player but Mario has definitely aged a lot better. Either way, both are incredibly fun, even now.

"Well according to you"? Does my list bother you? You asked what were my top 5 classic games, and there they are.rekabdarb said:
Is something wrong with that?
I hear you, Shining Force 2 was fantastic, it was an adventure that's for sure. I have the cart :U EXCITEMENT.rekabdarb said:
Beyond Oasis, I'm shocked someone else has played that game. I guess because of the Genesis Collection, I have a list of games that I'm positive most people don't know of. And yes, it is awesome. Also have the cart :U! Did you know there is a prequel? Legend of Oasis on the saturn. I haven't played it but have it, imagine that.
Gunstar Heroes, god damn that game is awesome, but hard. Man I want that game in cart form.
You missed out on some crazy things (because of when you were born) I mean I used to just download these games via Sega Channel, a bloody cartridge you plug into your Genesis and you literally downloaded games over the internet, in like 1996 or something. Run by Sega and all that, it was the xbox live of the 90's!
Ape Escape
Spyro 2: Rypto's Rage
Sheep, Dog, a Wolf
Final Fantasy 6
R-Type Delta
I haven't touched a PSX for years but, yeah, my 2 cents

Yeah theres a hell of a lot of final fantasy in there, but it was one of my first games on the ps1 (and that was my first console) AND yes i cheated by adding or's (||) and doing forward slashes for the pokemon but i definatly aint giving it anymore than 5, in fact the only reason there on there is because i grew up with them...and i couldnt remember the name of the other game i wanted to put... (it was a cross between chromehounds and gundam on the ps2).
