Most nostalgic games

[wyvernfaire]

After sugar_cookie mentioned Heroes of Might and Magic yesterday, I started getting really nostalgic about all those ancient games that are just barely hanging on at the edge of my memory. Games like Ecco the Dolphin, Little Big Adventure, Earthworm Jim, and all the old LucasArts point 'n' clicks...

I thought I'd make a post here since I'm curious about what games make everyone else feel nostalgic, and if there's anything you remember playing that you wish you could get a hold of today! :)

I think I bought some stuff from GoG ages ago, but I totally forgot about its existence until now. It's a brilliant site, I don't pirate/emulate games so I get really excited whenever I can find retro games for sale :D

I never had the Saturn, so I don't think I've played any of those games. I miss some of the games for the Genesis, though. (I think there was a Sonic game which had a Knuckles expansion pack, and you had to plug one cart into the top of the other cart or something. Crazy old technology is great.)

They just had a special (I dunno if it's still going on) and a plethora of different Sonic games on Steam hehe.

I think I already have one of the Sonic anthologies on Steam! (Also I just noticed they released FFVII on Steam. It has achievements. FFVII! With achievements! Exciting.)

FFVII is on my wishlist! At the very top actually lol! I know it was just released, but I'm hoping it's going to go on sale so I can snag it. XD

Yesss, it went straight on my wishlist too :D The summer sale can't come soon enough. Hope they end up releasing VIII and IX on Steam as well.

Did you know some of the early FF games are available on Android? I found out the other day and it was another awesome moment of realising that old games are being made super accessible. I don't know if they've been released on iOS too, but I would assume that they have.

I don't have a phone. :(

Aw. Well, there's always the Ouya! (... has anyone actually bought an Ouya yet?)
