so I have a Wii U and I'm interested in playing some classic titles. I'm wondering which have aged well and what gameplay will seem dated.
I've played Super Mario World and SMB3 so far and they were great. I also tried Super Mario 64 and Ocarina of Time and they seemed dated and inferior to their current gen counterparts. next options:
LoZ - Link to the Past
LoZ - Phantom Hourglass
Metroid
Super Metroid
Earthbound
Fire Emblem
Golden Sun
Any old Megaman game
Any old Kirby game
Kid Icarus
Any old Castlevania game
Any of the Mario RPGs
or if you guys have any other recommendations you know of on the Nintendo E Shop.
>falling for the wii u meme
Earthbound is a must if you've never played it. The GBA Fire Emblems are pretty good too.

nice, turn based games seem like they can't age that poorly. but I did hear earthbound gets a little slow.
thoughts on Fire Emblem vs Golden Sun? I categorize them as the same but I don't know a lot about them
Can you play NES games?
If so, go play Zelda one and two.

I see a lot of mixed reviews for LoZ 2, though I'm not sure how seriously to take reviews from 20 yrs ago

FE is a strategy game, GS is an RPG.
Honestly, just get a SNES and GBA emulator and try out a bunch of games. If you really feel super duper bad about it, or want to play on your gamepad, buy them on the eshop later
Also, Advance Wars
>I also tried Super Mario 64 and Ocarina of Time and they seemed dated and inferior to their current gen counterparts
wtf OP? These games are timeless. Easily better than Skyward Sword and 3D World

Stop.

I figure that only counts for those that played them when they were a current thing, since they know what to expect.
For someone new to them, they're gonna seem pretty counter-intuitive.

I was comparing SM64 to Galaxy and the graphics were too bad to immerse myself in. I also played TP/WW/SS and OoT just seemed like the same thing (I know it came first but that didn't make it better for me)
I can also play DS games but don't know what's good. anything you'd recommend?

>can play every handheld game from Gameboy to DS

is that with homebrew?
>>340861140
I played SM64 when it was new and always found it boring.
But it was Mario and an early 3D platformer and had the penguin level, so people will always pretend it was better than it was.
>>340863302
no it's all on the virtual console
>>340865680
I actually like the WiiU, but nigga, you stupid.
>>340865680
Oh, so you're just shitposting.
>>340863302
Some games need homebrew so that you can inject a different game into virtual console. Played through Pokemon Platinum on the Wii U recently, pretty comfy desu.
