My suggestions.

DOS: Phantasmgoria (great point & click horror game with really cheesy scenes PLUS the musical score is really good). If you want something really old, I'd suggest Jill of the Jungle. Old style platformer with your character turning into different creatures. (The jumping mechanics are a bit unrefined, but it's still entertaining.) Lemmings are a go-to puzzle game - use your mouse and different skills to solve puzzles.


NES - Bubble Bobble (for the true experience - two players!)

SNES - Super Castlevania 4, TMNT: Turtles in Time (still holds up as one of the better beat 'em ups), Samurai Shodown/Spirits, EARTHBOUND (seriously, this is one of the games everyone must play - it's an RPG with simple but good mechanics and really interesting characters).

GB - Pokemon TCG (pretty authentic experience, although it's on the easy side), Pokemon Yellow, Wario Land 3, Super Mario Land (weird real world stuff in mario)...

GBA - Seconding Minish Cap. Pokemon Emerald for the Kanto experience.

N64 - I have no idea, I stopped playing video games at this time. Kirby and the Crystal Shards is good, athough. I know a lot of people like Blast Corps.

@Felek666 only if you install windows xp thru dos and install doom 3 that way, butdosbox emulates a pentium ii so i bet the fps would be a little trashy

@Boogieboo6 any of the metroid style castlevania games are a winner. I recently found a co-op one, that I guess was ps3, on Playstation now.

@weedz : a co-op metroidvania?
what's its name? I'm curious about it now.

@Cyan Castlevania: Harmony of Despair I think. Only the PS3 had local co op. The Xbox 360 had online co op. Co op mode was basically a boss rush. I found it on Wikipedia.

    Sounds like scheduling an appt with the ENT was the best decision. I have many of those symptions. The pain in neck and back of head, ringing in the ear, being very tired all the time, dizzyness, etc.

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    @SylverReZ Significant pain in my neck, shoulder, and back of my head. Loud ringing in my ear and sounds like I have an ear plug in. Excessive tiredness. Slightly blurred vision.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Been going on for 40 days. Regular doctors and chiropractor did not help. ENT appointment isn't for another 27 days. I hope I live that long.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    That really sounds like the nerve in your neck
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Everything leads to vegas nerve compression. which in looking into it, can cause very bad health issues and can absolutely be fatal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @RedColoredStars, That sucks. My mum had a very bad neck and she's been to many drs to see what the problem is, and none of them noticed anything (except for one). They found that her discs is squeezing between her esophagus.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Try a hot wet towel (almost burning hot) on your upper neck almost the base of your skull. Might provide temporary relief
