Forums - Gaming Discussion - Most nostalgic games

There's absolutely loads, but I'd say these one in particular:

Sonic the Hedgehog (Master System) - first game I ever played iirc. Still fun to play through today.
Super Mario All Stars and World - the first game I ever yearned for in a nostalgic way. Was probably around2003/2004 and I'd sold my SNES long ago. I found myself really wanting to replay these two games, remembering the music, the levels, how fun it was etc.
Doom + Doom 2 (PC) - memories of sitting playing this, with invincibility, all weapons and no clipping cheats, just slaying hordes of demons on ultra-violence.
Super Mario 64 - my first step into 3D gaming. I can still recall how weird it felt using the joystick for the first time.
Goldeneye - wasted many hours of my youth playing multiplayer on this, and trying to unlock cheats in single player.
Resident Evil - the first game that really drew me in with the story.
Shenmue - my brother got this for Christmas (and the sequel the following year). I just used to sit and watch, astounded by the level of detail and immersion.
Star Fox Adventures - when I think of Christmas, I think of this game (along with Shenmue above). Just reminds me of a particularly good holiday season when I got it as a gift.

Also mgs2, FFX, super Mario 64, crash bandicoot, clockwork knight to make a few. 

It's crazy you mentioned that game of all. I wanted to put it on my list. I looked up a video on YouTube and found a video posted by someone I haven't heard from since GamePro went defunct. His user name is eeriely similar to yours...teh2dgamer.

Saturn was exactly what Sega pumped it out to be. The overwhelming feeling of being rushed to the consumer and shabby support from 3rd party devs. At least it seemed that way. Sega had a pretty decent line up from what I remember. The Saturn itself is nostalgic. Could have been something soo much better.

Are you really a teenager ?

Yes I am. I got a retro Mega Drive console for my sixth birthday (in 2005), with 6 games pre-installed.

Felix and ALA are both in their mid-30's for sure.

Try a few decades below that.
