Hi!
I post this thread so that we can talk about retro gaming in general, not just the tech details (for which there are other spaces in this fora).
I'll start by saying that I'm playing NES games (emulated on my smartphone). I wanted to begin with the Final Fantasy saga from the very beginning, since I hadn't played any of its games, so I began with Final Fantasy and then beat Final Fantasy II and Final Fantasy III (very recently).
Now I wanted to move on to the SNES, but since I also have the whole Dragon Quest saga in my backlog as well, I thought that it would be better to play the first NES games too, so that I can experience the evolution of both sagas almost in parallel.
So far, I liked FF but the third game was not as good as the previous ones, in my opinion, due to some story/level design issues, as I shared in the "What are you playing now? (console edition)" thread. Now I'm playing the first Dragon Quest game, which was previous than the first FF game. I'm not liking the menu for basic actions such as opening a door, but let's see how things progress.
Welcome!
