Im in a retro mood, its because my brother has this little keyboard and on it is loads of preset tunes, the one that hes playing now really sounds like a tune from one of my old Sega Saturn games. Gaming is so different nowdays from what it was like a few years ago, i remember when me and my best friend (yes, i do have friends) always used to come round each others house and play multiplayer games for hours, but nowdays im mostly playing by myself on single player. I think i enjoyed myself more when i had my Saturn than i do with my Xbox, im not saying i hate the Xbox and i know its 100x more powerful than the Saturn but i had more fun with my friends on the Saturn than i do now with my Xbox. Does anyone else feel like this sometimes?

The reason why i posted this topic in this forum is because Nintendo is the king of retro.....and more people come here than in the Classic Gaming Forum.

Super Mario Bros. remains the best game ever, so I always return to the classics like that.

HEH! I LOVE retro gaming!

I just went out and bought a snes off of ebay with all the mario games (except RPG) for £20, and am also trying to secure Final Fantasy and Chronotrigger- one of my favourite games of all time.

I'm also replaying Zelda:OOT and Zelda:MM, as well as nostalgically remembering Tie Fighter on the PC which came out on disc in 1994- it won't run on any of today's pcs :(

So, yeah, you could say sometimes I do feel very nostalgic and prefer older games.
