I would've done but the ebay prices are horrific.
Maybe I'll try some emulations. :-)
Talking Snes, I still find Super Metroid and Donkey Kong Country the best games I've come across. I didn't get onto Link to the Past until after playing Windwaker, all the Gameboy ones, N64 ones... it kind of seemed a little out-dated after all of them (I mean, Capcom's latest ones had develloped the series beyond going back - not saying that they were better or anything, just Link to the Past seemed a little empty in comparison. I guess 1991 games age eventually.).
Final Fantasy 6 seemed great until the "end of the world" where momentum completely halted (although before then I'd say it was up to FF7 standard. I'd say it was even better for character devellopment...). I had some great times with a friend on Secret of Mana on school PC's but I guess the "keyboard + no sound" 2 player version didn't quite have the magic as the full version. I did get a Snes one on Ebay but it was NSTC, I used the converter wrong (it didn't come with instructions so I tried everything - ended up blowing the game, the Snes and perhaps the converter too).
I AM in a rambling mood today! :-)

Ditto.
ePSXe is the best Playstation emulator. Luna Silver Star Story seems like a very good RPG, FF9 was great and Valkyrie Profile will be exciting when I try it out.
im playin through FF6 atm. the presentation of the game is almost identical to chrono trigger. doubt the storyline will be better, but its still good fun.
chrono trigger remake for PS3? ive heard rumours.....
