Yep. Contra 3, Final Fight, Star Fox , RC Pro Am NES to name a few of many.

Appy, are you playing these games on original hardware?

Sadly no, all later ports/re-releases.

GoG has made playing the OG RE games (1 through 3) a lot easier and affordable recently too, they put them out for $9.99 a piece last year.

it's pretty much all I play. I have gotten in to a rhythm now where I am always playing games that are are 5-10 years old. I let all the new games come out broken, wait till they get all patched up, all DLC released and then buy the complete editions for like $20.

Got a FPGA Mister and using the old classic systems since they were released. I play those more than Switch and Xbox last few years.

I generally, will only play retro games that I haven't played before.
Going back to games I played when I was young can often ruin the memories I had.

I bought a retroid pocket 4 to load old games onto it from GBA to PS2 and have not touched it once. Like that its their as an option but way too many good modern games out there to go back replay an older gen one.

I love old games and I'm very attached to them even if I don't spend a huge amount of time playing them anymore. I still launch them regularly just for a quick fix or palate cleanser.

But one of their strengths was their non-committal nature. I can beat the first level of an old game in less time than new loading and splash screens. Firing up an old game isn't really a "decision".

Huge factor for me as well in playing many old games.
