Can we talk about old games that aged like wine?

Its ok user I wasn't born yet

Super Metroid is my favourite game.

Picked this up on steam recently and i've been having a blast with it, the only game I can think of where it actually is as good as it was when I was a kid.

Hopefully microsoft make JSRF backwards compatible at some point

Tell me what you like about it so much? The momentum? The game engine in general? The music, atmosphere, exploration?

I started with ZM and went to SM and it was way too floaty for my taste

I heard so much about this game. Is this the same game that was the Dreamcast' system seller? Probably gonna get it, tonight actually.

most 2d side-scrollers like mario or mega man x age well. Most other genres don't age that well.

Definitely worth the price, it's 80% off on steam at the moment (1 bongbux)

I'd imagine it is pretty bad without a controller though

Box wine maybe, heh.

So many snes games come to mind. N64 by comparison, hmmm not so much.

All of it. 60FPS standard is in tact. The physics (despite not being "realistic") are fantastic. The world design is great and combined with the physics allows a skilled player to go literally wherever if they know the enemies and mechanics well enough. And yes, the music sets the tone well.

Just about everything, and the way it all fits together. The music complements the atmosphere, the atmosphere enriches the exploration, the exploration is so engaging because of the platforming mechanics, the platforming mechanics are what makes the sequence breaking so exciting, the sequence breaking is what makes it so replayable.

I never get bored of Super, no matter how much I play it. There's always something new for me to try.

git gud

I have 5 different controllers for my PC.

More like Cristal you pleb. Confirmed summer kid who was born after 2000.

Final Fantasy Tactics for PS1

Been here since 2006, never heard of this stupid term.

Desu Super Metroid has the spookiest most awesome music for an SNES cart. I am entirely impressed even today.

>snes era
>60 fps

user at least attempt to look like you know what you're talking about.

There's a mod that changes super metroid to control more like the gba games btw

You're a faggot if you want to change the physics. I am a fan of the Control Freak patches which alters the inputs to be more like the GBA games.

SNES games did run at 60fps, they experienced slowdown rather than framedrops.

Shit bait. It's not floaty, it has weight, unlike the feather nonsense of the gba games.

Everything has weight in the GBA games. Too much fucking weight - You start and stop on a dime and you drop like a stone when you jump.
There is zero momentum.

Will never forget the first time i played super metroid, emulated with zsnes in like 1998. The world design, the audio and the atmosphere - all fucking GOAT tier.

Super Metriod is floaty.

>Everything has weight in the GBA games. Too much fucking weight
>You start and stop on a dime

wut. Not sure where you were going with that but yeah, the instant acceleration gives the impression of extremely low weight and fucked up gravity.

the polemon games.

I picked up recently, and so far I'm liking it, but there are times when it felt you needed to spam your bombs to find a place where you need to get through. Thankfully not holy water Castlevania 2 tier, but still kind of counter intuitive.
