I haven't bought a physical copy of an 'old' game since I got the original Crash Bandicoot around 5 years ago. I do still buy virtual console releases, though. Just several days ago I purchased Super Mario 64.

I don't buy old games anymore, but I still play them.

Age of Empires II, Civilization III, Tales of Symphonia (GCN)...

(I still play a lot of DS games too, but that doesn't count as old, in this case)

Age of Empires II, Pikmin 2, Twilight Princess, mainly.

My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

Yeah, I still buy older games. Gotta keep my collection going. I don't play old games often, but every once in awhile I'll go back and play some of them.
