I just hit 10 hours in Earthbound on my Anbernic RG280V. I’m looking forward to trying some more SNES games once I’m finished (Super Mario World, Street Fighter Turbo II, Zelda: Link to the Past, etc.).

Interested to hear what you all are playing? Or, what retro games are on your “to do” list?

    Replaying Super Mario World for SNES with my five-year-old. First time for him, he loves Yoshi. I haven’t really played it all the way through in about a decade; my wife and I did it together when we were engaged, was the last time.

    Would X3TC count as retro? It’s from like 2005. I tried playing X4 because fans said it was like X3 but better… But it’s not. It’s so much more convoluted in all the wrong ways. The menus are trash. The RNG sucks. The AI economy is even worse. X3 is still a way better game.

    I started Phantasy Star on my Odroid GO Ultra. Was looking for the game on my Master System but the pricing is a little over the top. Purely priced for “collectors” and not gamers.

    ooooo if you enjoyed Earthbound, may I recommend Undertale next? Not exactly retro, but similar vibes (and there’s some fun fan theories about these two universes)

          Ha ha! OK! Funny thing is I actually already own it. My boys (teenagers) got it at some point, but I don’t know much about it.

            google

            nothing

            It’s easily my favorite game. Hell, better than any book, movie or story I’ve ever experienced. Undertale messed me up. In the best way

              Well, I did it! I played through Undertale start-to-finish last weekend! The ending was awesome! Thanks for the recommendation!
