I've known countless Playstation owners who'd never those an N64 over their own machine but loved Goldeneye and Mario Kart 64 and couldn't get enough of it.
I'd never buy a Playstation but I'd still would've liked to have played through games like Final Fantasy and Metal Gear Solid.
For every system you played but never owned, list the 5 games you missed the most on it.
I'll start.
I've had an Amiga, a Master System and an N64.
On the Snes:
Super Mario world - One of the greatest 2D platformers ever.
Donkey Kong Country - THE greatest 2D platformer ever!
Final Fantasy 3 - A great RPG I only played a bit of.
Metroid - Never played it but everywhere I hear how great it was.
Zelda - Having played it's N64 sequel, I really want to play this one.
There was the Mega Drive:
Sonic 1 - Played the inferior Master System Version and always wanted it's better counterpart.
Sonic 2 - Like the first only better.
Sonic 3 - I was really into Sonic, I would've bought the Mega Drive but I never got the chance...
Sonic and Knuckles - Well the others weren't complete without this one.
Fifa - Fifa was good in the days of the Mega Drive. It was a good 3 years before it got stupid.
I never played a Saturn (although I know of a fair few titles that are meant to be good, e.g. Nights and Panza Dragoon)
The Dreamcast (Which I would've bought had I not played Goldeneye!):
Sonic Adventure - I hardly need tell you...
Crazy Taxi - Brilliant idea, brilliant game. It also reminded me that Americans drive on the right hand side :-D
Shenmue - Not actually played it but seen enough of it to know I'd like it.
Phantasy Star Online - I won't miss out on this one though. It's on the Gamecube too.
Sonic Adventure 2 - ...
There's the Playstation:
Crash Bandicoot - This was Donkey Kong Country gameplay with a neat 3D twist.
Final Fantasy 7 - I got sucked into the story line at a friends house but never got to go very far. The unfinished story is killing me...
Metal Gear Solid - Very unique and original game.
Teken 3 - The N64 never did get a serious beat-em up.
Point Blank - I thought that this game was stupid and rubbish until I played it at the arcades. Dangerously addictive!
I've not played any PS2 titles yet but I'm sure there's some fair ones around too.
