Super Mario Bros. X Forums

What is your favourite retro video game? From asteroids to Donkey Kong to the first smb, which one is still a favourite for you?

Ps mine is Snake, classic!

Super Mario World.

Mine would be Kirby's Adventure.

- SMB3
- Bomberman
- Load runner
- Mappy
- Geometry dash

Super Mario Land. ^_^

My fav is super mario world, although super mario bros 3 comes close behind.

Any NES and SNES I own like Super Mario Bros. through Super Mario World. Also does PC games count too? If yes than Gravity Well.

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, probably. That game is extremely impressive as a SNES game.

Geometry dash isn't a real retro game.


And I link Super Mario Kart.

He didn't mention Geometry Dash.

There's a great retro style game called Retry.

He did. If you quote his post you see he used the transparent code.

Think and check before you try proving someone wrong

I see this after I marked his post (click with the left and marked it).
But why does he wrote GD?

I didn't notice he'd actually put it on transparent.

Idk Cedrik maybe for fun.

And that's Linik why you shouldn't make any assumptions without checking the other persons post.

Sonic the Hedgehog 1, 2, 3, & Knuckles.

Definitely Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. It's a glorious game and with good reason, it plays fantasticly, it's challenging, and most importantly it IS fun to play. The game doesn't expect too much from the player and at the same time it doesn't hold your hand, you know perfectly well that once you get the hang of it you're on your own. The only other game I had a lot of fun playing, or that I believe I had as much fun as I had playing A Link to the Past would be ironically Ocarina of Time. Yeah I know I'm a Zelda die-hard fan, no regrets here.

Earthbound is an awesome game too, but honestly I'm not too fond of the gameplay, it is way too different and while that may not always be a downside it took me a while to get used to it and in the end I didn't enjoy it as much as other I do playing other RPGs. That and you have to grind for EXP way too fucking much and the thought and execution of such just doesn't appeal to me. I do enjoy me some Final Fantasy IV, best Final Fantasy game with best Final Fantasy boss battle, even though the writting could've been a lot better.

Retro-games are those that pertain to a discontinued console, such as the Nintendo Entertainment System, the Nintendo 64, etc. The PC is difficult to categorize, though. Since many products such as CPU's, Video-cards, etc. are in continuous development and evolving into monstrosities it's really tough to just say the PC you used to play those old-school games is discontinued or if you keep using a PC, but with better parts. I'd say it doesn't count because technically that game you used to play ran on a pretty old computer; if you happened to try to run the same game chances are, it would play way too fast it would be unplayable unless you would modify your monitor's color processing (I think that's what it's called?) and change other stuff.

Does that mean that the wii is retro now? Because they stopped working on it. Just a question.

Well technically yeah, Wii games could easily be considered Retro-games due to the fact it's a discontinued console. Do keep in mind that the term also rounds the obsolete state, though.
