Que Passa!!!!
Yes, this a poll, but it's a little more like my older polls then can be shown in the post-a-poll format. I actually wanted to ask it after the Gamecube came out, but never got around to it...
Anyway, as you know- with digital entertainment, progress marches on. Old systems are replaced on a regular basis with new systems, and pretty soon everyone's forgot about the past...
Well, everyone except for us nostalgiacs.
Gamecube, and Xbox, Playstation 2, and GBA are all the new must have systems... But what about the old systems that used to be cutting edge. We can't just forget them...
In fact, as they are no longer making new games for them, we may find it easier to pinpoint our single favorite game for each system.
And that's what this poll is all about. Got an old dusty Genesis game that you love too much to sell? Still playing a hit N64 game? Counting the Days til your all time favorite SNES game hits GBA?
Well, what were your favorite games for those systems? Name them, and if you can remember, give a few words about why you liked it.
Me first- as usual. I'm only doing systems that I played on a regular basis.
Commadore 64(My first game machine.): Ducktales, the quest for gold.
My favorite mostly because of my love of the Donald Duck Universe.(One of the things I think Disney actually does right... Well, they DID mess it up in Quack Pack- KEEP HD&L KIDS for cripes sake.) You had to help Scrooge McDuck collect more money then that despicable Flintheart Glomgold in 30 days. I never did get to finish that game.
GameBoy: Legend of Zelda.
If you haven't played this game, I pity you.
SNES: (I liked it so much I have 3 favorites)Aero the Acrobat
AERO RULES! There's just no ifs ands or buts about it.

The game was fairly average, if a little difficult, but I LOVED the main character so much, that I created a character of my own based on him: A bat wearing a bandana(With the eclipes logo that you see in my signiture imprinted on it.) waving a leaf around like a sword. I named him Myo(pronounced MY-Oh), and he became the prototype to my character Ms. Leleb.
Wonder Project J
I don't really know why I like this game, as Its imported and I can't understand a word of Japanese... But I like it.
Sega:Toejam and Earl
I liked the sound effects and the random worlds. A game that you can never get board with. Besides, I never got passed level 3 in any of those Sonic the Hedgehog games, sad to say...
N64: (Two games are the best)Harvest Moon 64
Its not so much a farm simulator as it is a farm LIFE simulator.
Conkers Bad Fur Day
Any game where a evil panther wants to use you as a table leg is Okay in MY book.
