For me, The Sims. The original one. Always takes me back to when I was 7 years old. Building my perfect home, perfect family. Really loved the music scores. I still listen to them now. Beautiful. Thank you Maxis for making my childhood so amazing.

Reliving my childhood.

So what are yours?

 

Sonic The hedgehog 2, first game I ever played.

 

Opening tune for Pac-Man & the intro to the orignal Zelda where the title of the game scrolls up.

 

summer of 93, i was nine, it was a beautiful day and i was inside playing super mario bros 3.

now every time i play that game or its a lovely 85 degree sunny day, i feel so happy and remember how simple life was back then.

 

Pretty much any Mario game from Super Mario World and older. The original NES Zelda, and SNES A Link to the Past, NES Metroid/Super Metroid. Those few games seriously bring me back to childhood. Then in my teens the big ones were Resident Evil, Donkey Kong 64, and, oddly enough, Tenchu.

 

Megaman 1-3, without a doubt. These were the foundation of my childhood gaming and learning how to play a platform game. I still have no idea how I beat them at such a young age...I'm very confused by that since they still give me trouble today  

But yeah, every time I play those again it's like a nostalgic trip back to childhood.

For some reason, it still is with me too. I had never known that rice balls could be so effective in life before. Tenchu taught me otherwise  

Oh man, forgot to mention Rygar on nes too. So much music from that game engraved into my brain. I played it again last summer so I could remember just how rough of a game it was. So epic though.

 

Megaman Battle Network 3 and Metroid Zero Mission.

 

Super Mario bros 3. (Original NES version)

The first game I ever played, and still brings back memories.

 

X-Wing vs TIE Fighter, the first game I ever played and largely responsible for me becoming a Star Wars fan.

 

Lego Racers 2, and, to a lesser extent, Bionicle: The Game. I grew up on those, and to this day thinking about them gives me intense feels.

 

Think there was a Wacky Racers or something like that.

 

Probably metroid prime! Listening to the "Harmony of a hunter" (if your a metroid fan download it, it's free!) makes me remember the whole game from when I first yard it about 6 years ago  

 

Donkey kong country. 1st Nintendo platformer that I played when I got a snes.

 

Mario 2, Secret of Mana, and Final Fantasy VI

 

Alpha Mission II (used to play that on the arcade), most shmups (shoot'em ups), the first 3 Mega Man X games and Metroid/Super Metroid.

 

Sonic 2 wasn't the first game I played but it was probably my favorite Christmas present I may have ever received. So, that, along with Final Fantasy 2 and 3(6), Secret of Mana, Super Mario World, and as much as I hate to say it, even Playstation and N64 games are starting to feel nostalgic for me. The Playstation's statup sound even makes me a little nostalgic.

Yeah, all of these games almost instantly bring me back to being a kid/teen.

 

Sonic the hedgehog and Pokemon red/blue

I remember playing Lego Racers 1 and 2, those games were the best thing ever when I was a kid. I also played lego rock raiders

 

None, I really can't get sentimental about old video games. All the broken controllers considered.

 

Zork.

First real computer game I ever saw. It sucked me right in.

Goddamn grues.

 

The Wind Waker. My best friend and I used to alternate playing the game - he'd play for 30 or so minutes, and then I'd play for thirty or so minutes. Since he and I were kids at the time, I always thought of him as being like Wind Waker Link - not so much look-wise, but attitude wise.
