I have an SNES emulator on my PC, but planning on actually buying a used console as soon as I can find one for a decent price. Now that I think about it, one of my old friends had one last time I checked... maybe he's willing to sell.

Anyway.

I've been playing the sh*t out of both Super Castlevania IV and Wild Guns. Awesome games, awesome music, but I'd say that Wild Guns wins out because I can't get past that damn rotating room in SCIV.

Other than that, I'm planning on booting up my copies of Diablo 2 and/or Fallout 1&2 soonish, if I can tear myself away from New Vegas long enough.

I am replaying a game of my childhood the game that got me into rpgs Jade Cacoon 2. Sure it may be just be more or less a pokemon clone however its the characters, monsters and story that made me kept me playing the game. The monster desgin is epic and so is the level up system.

I'm also playing pokemon colosseum and XD why because its the best Pokemon game usings the the basic form of capture pokemon (ie i'm also a fan of the Ranger games)

In anticipation of the new Golden Sun game coming out for the DS, I've started replaying the second GBA game, as well as starting to replay Fire Emblem: the Sacred Stones just for the heck of it.

What I want to know is, has anyone else given in to the hankering to dust off an old copy of anything, and if so, what?
Holy crap, I cannot wait for GS:DD and I have replayed the previous two games a number of times and I still find them awesome. Seriously, this is the second time within the last 20 minutes I've thought about Golden Sun to help answer a topic and find others have already mentioned it.

I often play old games repeatedly, mostly because I only really get new games every birthday and Christmas. Some I quite enjoy are the Professor Layton series (I know they're not old ut they're just so good), Legend of Zelda games, old Pokemon games, Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy, Yoshi's Island, Advance Wars and I could go on listing just about every game I've ever owned because I've only ever gotten rid of a few. I still have a game which had Asteroid and Missile Command which I really want to replay but doesn't work in my GBC or GBA:SP. I was one of the seven people around the world who was actually surprised and outraged that I couldn't play pre-GBA games on my DS.

See this list here:
http://www.ign.com/top-100-nes-games/index.html

I've spent the last 5 months downloading and playing EVERY GAME on this list, just for the hell of it. Also because I got bored of my PS3 games. With a few google searches, you can figure out how to use your PS3 or Xbox 360 controller on your computer, like I did.
The fun never ends, seriously :)

I would replay Xenogears if they'd get their asses in gear and release it on American PSN. Already replayed and exhaustively over-levelled characters in ff7 and 8.

Ah yeah, it's fucking great. It's a one of kind game. I don't really understand why vampire RPGs in an urban setting aren't made more often. you can catch it on steam but be sure to patch it with the Unofficial patch 7.2 (or if a newer version has been released).
7.2? Son of a *****, I'm only running 7.0. What's 7.2 change?

OT: Last game I played that could really be considered old is Tony Hawk's Underground.
I don't think it's anything major. Just bug fixes I think.
Good to know.

Manged to nab all 3 prince of persia games for £3.50, slowly working my way thought them atm. I must say that i am enjoying them quite alot even if draining sand from your enemies every time you knock them down is tedious

Just returned from a 10 month interstate trip, got my old PC and games out of storage, replaying F.E.A.R. with a newer video card (nVidia 7600 -> 9600GS), runs great.

Dusted off my copy of KOTOR 2 for the first time in a long time. Gotta say, the battle music is annoying me now more than I remember, but after about an hour of playing I remembered why I love the game.

Good lord, where to begin?

Diablo II & LOD
Half-Life 1 with addons
StarCraft
MechCommander 2
MechWarrior 3
Unreal Tournament (still think it's the best of 'em all)
Quake III Arena
Grand Theft Auto 2
Hell, I even played Doom 2 the other day.

Now, I'll grant you, many of those were played at a small LAN wherein three friends and I were in an 'ole school' gaming mood. Still, I play a lot of older games.
