Since they announced the remake of Super Mario RPG, I’ve found myself playing the original again.
In fact, I have a few classics that I still play regularly.
- Zelda ALttP
- Super Metroid
- Metroid Prime (Switch remaster is 🔥)
- Kirby Air Ride (City Trial is still my go-to party game with my 30 year old friends)
- Super Mario 64
What about you guys?
Super Mario World will always be my go-to.
Super Mario 3, there is just something into it that I just keep coming back to.
I’ve never really stopped playing Super Mario World.
Mario World world map is like a Mario Kart track at this point. Every year we take another lap.
- Secret of Mana 1+2
- Terranigma
- Chrono Trigger
- Earthbound
- ALttP
… for the SNES. Those were the games I grew up with and every other year I get the itch to replay one of those. I’ve considered playing the remake of SoM 2 but the demo felt bland and off to me.
On a related note, I would totally buy each of those for the Switch so I could play them on a proper handheld, but the current system with the yearly subscription that basically only rents those games to the end user and forces them to stay online, is something I find off-putting. I’d much rather just pay once and be done, like with every other game in the eShop.
Does Pokemon count? Because that’s forever going to be my jam.
Been playing since Red and Blue. I always go back to the remakes for HGSS. I think they were some of the best. While maybe not retro being remakes, I still say they belong.

Super Metroid and Super Marioa64 are masterpieces.
would love to do an OG Zelda playthrough with my kid and then try to beat the second quest
Gotta be Star Fox 64 for me
Username checks out.
Apparently Pikmin 1 if that counts as a classic. Played it first last week, and it’s been amazing. Got the rest of the series straight after.
If that doesn’t count, I still regularly play Super Mario 64, which is one of my all time favorite games period.
Ocarina of Time A Link to The Past Mario 64 Super Mario World Smash 64
Super Mario Bros 3 and Pokemon Crystal are games that I always come back to, so many memories.
Super Mario 64! I love that game. It brings back so much memories.
