I'd go for Zelda, a lot more consistent in quality. The early final fantasy's have not aged well and the later ones are just getting worse and worse, they had a sweet spot on snes and ps1, which hopefully they get back to that quality soon.

To be fair, early Zelda has aged absolutely horribly. Zelda 1 and 2 are retro fan only material, where at least FF 1, 2, and 3 have gotten modern tune ups to help newer gamers appreciate the older content. Both SNES Zelda and FF forward though have aged pretty well sans a title here or there. I can't argue with later FF endeavours, pretty much X onward, being lackluster at best and absolutely horrible at worst.

its hilarious that you claim that Zelda 1 + 2 have aged terribly- name some NES era games that have aged BETTER than Zelda 1? you will be incredibly hard pressed to find many titles that are as replayable today. the odds are you are not a vintage gamer and simply talking out of your bottom
