The oldest game I still really enjoy is probably The Secret of Monkey Island for DOS (1990). I like classic NES games too but I don't really play them anymore.

What's yours?

Well I just finished again as of old game Pokémon Yellow, so that should counts, a game that I actively play almost daily is Jump Ultimate Stars for DS though.

God bless custom servers.

I still love everything I played from the N64 era, and the old tycoon games (RCT2/OpenRCT) are amazing. Oldest recent fun was finding some great sesame street games I played as a kid to share w/ my son who is just learning letters and counting. Ernie's Big Splash (1986) and Astro Grover (1984). Neither would really hold my attention today as an adult though.

I have been on a rct2 binge recently. Nothing quite his like that game and openrct is the best thing to ever happen to it. And agreed on the n64 era. It was like magic.

Isometric games are my jam. But the oldest might be Transport tycoon (1994) that I still enjoy even today

Probably Marble Madness. The NES version was half my childhood and I love to seek out the arcade version at retro gaming expos, although my wrists are really not up to all that frantic trackballing these days.

Couple of oldies I fire up regularly: Tetris (Gameboy, 1989); Head Over Heels (Spectrum, 1987); Bruce Lee (C64, Atari, 1984)
