Topic: Old games you're considering getting (not including the VC)

Basically, what old games (other than the VC) are you looking into getting?

I'll be getting Star Fox Adventures on Friday, after finals and move-out. That game was one of my first GC games, and I sold it when I got Assault. However, I miss it now. Every time I hear the main overworld theme ("I-O I-O...I-A-O"), I get nostalgic.

Yes! Finally..... a topic for me to talk about!

Anyway...... I'm actually thinking about getting a PS2........ then getting Tekken 4, Jak 2 and 3, Street Fighter Collector's Anniversary, and Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal.

I won't get it all at the same time, if I do get it.

I have a PS2, but it became my sister's, since I couldn't care less about Japanese RPGs anymore. She also plays Metal Gear Solid among other uninteresting games. I miss the Playstation, without the gimmicky CD/DVD player and backward compatibility. The controller even originally lacked analog sticks and vibration. It was a true video game system, not a multimedia center.

F-Zero GX and the other one for GBA.

If I can find it, I would like to get TMNT: Turtles in Time for the SNES.

Oh, I'm totally into older games, in fact I rarely purchase new games. The main reason? Because older games are cheap. Cheap = Moar games.

I bought a PS1 and Xbox this year and purchased lots of cheap GCN, N64, GBA and some older NDS games. I'm also going to buy a DreamCast and SNES this year and a Saturn and PS2 next year.

They're also awesome!
I also want Mario Tennis (GBA) and Golf (GBA).

They are indeed!

I also might pop over to my local used video game store and see what they have. I'm considering trading in Gun.Smoke for the NES.

I've been thinking about tracking down Metal Gear Solid for Game Boy Color... but it usually runs a little more than I want to pay. I've also got a line on a $5 copy of Dragon Warrior III for Game Boy Color.

Theirs a lot of games for the DS that I havent played that I can find pretty cheap at my local Gamestop. So do games like Super Mario 64 for the DS count as retro gaming? That title has to be like 6 years old now.

How old is old? There's still some GCN games I want to play and a whole bunch of Wii games I missed out on like Dragonball: Revenge of King Piccolo.

Discontinued systems are what I was thinking, so the DS wouldn't count, remakes or otherwise.

Since I just got my snes up and running again I want to see if I can get my hands on Sunset Riders and UN Squadron.

I recently purchased a SEGA Saturn, so I'm going to try to get some more games for it. Pricing considered, I'm considering NiGHTS and Earthworm Jim 2 as of now.

But the online shopping.... Ugh, I'm not used to it.

I think I found my new home...

I just bought a crapload of PS2 and GBA games. Summon Night: Swordcraft Story 2 (I've been looking everywhere for this game! So glad I got it!), Wild Arms 5, Dragon Quest VIII, and Front Mission 4 just arrived, and I'm still waiting for Grandia 2, Klonoa 2, Xenosaga, and Xenosaga 2 to arrive.

I'm also going to Gamestop tomorrow, and I'm thinking of getting Boktai 2 and Final Fantasy 6 Advance if they have them.

@Turtlelink

Got both of those not too long ago, they're both incredibly fun(and cheap!).

I just bought Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga for GameStop recently, used of course. Collectively they're the best $36 I've spent in a while.

Yea. I liked those mario sports games that where developed by Camelot. It had RPG elements and connectivity with the Gamecube.

I would love to play Golden Sun...
My older brothers played it, but then they lost it.

I meant the F-Zero games, not the boring Mario sports games. Some of the best racing around, and I got 'em both for the price of F-Zero X on VC. If you haven't got 'em, get 'em.
