I’ve been enjoying emulating games recently - mostly NES, ps1 and gba - and I’m looking to branch out from my limited familiarity as I mostly play games I’ve played in the past (and then it was mostly rentals- so very limited exposure lol).

What games would you recommend checking out? Basically across any ps1-equivalent generation system or earlier. I’m interested in the FF series but have no idea where to start either 🤷‍♂️

My rotation atm:

PS1: Medal of Honor, ssx,

GBA: Pokémon firered, wario

NES: castlevania, ninja gaiden

    Update - so far you’re the winner in terms of hours lol - I’ve dumped all of my commute time into pinball recently. Pokemon pinball gbc and gba are the best, but muppet pinball is very enjoyable too

      Muppet Pinball? Wow, what an era of videogames. Glad you’re enjoying them. By the way, there’s an incredible ROM hack of the GBC Pokemon Pinball called Generations. Adds new Gold and Silver tables and the entire Johto Pokedex to the game and it still somehow plays on original hardware apparently. I want something like that so bad for the GBA sequel.
