My Top 10 Favorite Video Games - My Retro Life
This guy and his dad were RUclipsrs before RUclips was even a thing! Look at all that footage 😮 the more I watch his older videos the more impressed I am with how dedicated these two were to games and recording 👍
Best channel on RUclips. Tyler and his dad are hidden gems.
They were the pioneers of the 1990s! 👍🏻
golden
It is pretty damn impressive.
Ikr!
Your channel is the epitome of what RUclips was meant to be. If the gatekeepers at RUclips knew what was best for the company, this channel would be one of the faces of YT.
Your channel truly is priceless. You sharing this, in a way, gives people the opportunity to experience what a magical childhood looks like.
I am grateful for your channel 🙏🏻🤙🏻
Very kind of you to say! I love getting to share the stories and memories
Totally! It’s such a wholesome channel
Grammy worthy comment
Well if he was a minority they might.
@@stephenschenider4007 So true. Gotta fill the DEI quota!
RIP to your pops man as I can totally relate to what you went through and still going through. I lost my dad in 1994 when I was 11. Only difference is my dad wasn't a gamer himself but he would occasionally watch me play and would by me cartridges either on my birthday or Christmas time. My fondest memory of my dad was watching him play Outrun in the Arcade for the first time. We cracked up laughing because my dad was playing it like he was driving in real life all cautious and slow. So my brothers and I shouted "Dad! There's a timer! You have to get to the finish line or you will lose!" So he perked up, stomped on the gas and started flying and crashing lol. He was so genuinely happy and it feels good passing down old stories about him to my kids. 😇
Love this comment! Thanks for sharing and I’m sorry you lost your Dad so young. Thank you for watching
@@MyRetroLife -- making these kind of lists is tough enough without having to relive tough memories, but I know there are plenty of happy ones that hopefully more than make up for it.
We lost Dad back in '97; I was 20, but my brother was only 16. I still miss Dad, but I try to think about how we were lucky to have as much time with him as we did. Still, I feel for you and TDMShow...and anyone else who loses a loved one like that.
Dad wasn't a huge gamer, but he did get us into gaming, with the Odyssey^2, then the Master System, then the Genesis -- I very much appreciate the SEGA love you show, not only in your top 10, but in many of your videos!
Thanks go to you for the videos you make, and to your dad for getting all that excellent footage back in the day!
Happy New Year!
Wow. Sorry about your father so long ago. This was a good story!
I never had a dad. Video games are how I bond with my boys. Games help me when I'm feeling low. Can I get a Video on legend of Dragoon. I've beat it three times. Great game
You know what I realized, with us older gamers, our most favorite games are usually the one with most nostalgia attached to it.
I was born in ‘84 and your right. Gaming in the late eighties and into nineties was pure magic. I’m 38 now and still love gaming. I just got my 6 year old son his first Nintendo (switch) and I’ve been playing the crap out of the retro emulators. Love your channel dude. Likes and subbed forever
Same (born in 84)… though I have a different take. I think we had a unique experience of seeing video games go through their biggest metamorphosis to date. But when I really look at the state of gaming now, it’s just as incredible (if not more so). Plus, all those retro games are there along side everything made since the end of the 90s.
Plus, the sheer amount of options in how we can play video games now is mind blowing. If you would have told my 10 year old self that I would one day have a handheld machine that played every game ever made between 1977 to 1999, I would have died on the spot. Don’t get me wrong, I have a lot of love for games of my childhood. They dramatically impacted my development. But so has movies and literature made long before I was born. And games like Braid and Outer Wilds are some of the most amazing experiences I’ve had in gaming and I was well into adulthood by the time those came out.
I feel y'all, born in 83 and it was magic all growing up. It definitely still is, I never could've imagined playing the first Zelda and virtual boy that as an adult I'd have a real VR headset and exploring Skyrim and No man's sky. And so many great RPG games now too. Still play all the old consoles often too it's really fun.
Born in 84 too. The late 80's & early 90's were truly a magical time to be alive and nothing will EVER be able to top the 8-16 bit generations imo. That big momentous generational leap in power no longer exists these days. The only thing that's blowing me away is VR, it's that next level. I'm biting my nails in anticipation for the upcoming Resident Evil 8 Village & Call of the Mountain this Feb for the PSVR2. :O
@@leeartlee915 I agree. Games like the last of us completely blew me away. Playing Cyberpunk on a 4090 makes me question reality lol I am also super stoked to replay TLOU part 1 on my PC. What a time to have lived. Seeing the birth of video games to where we are now is nuts, and to think, with a little luck we are only halfway through our lives. What will the future hold!?
Bout to turn the big four zero next year. Time flies.
Mega Man 2 is my all time favorite game as well. I'm 42 now and remember growing up in the 80s and 90s. Capcom games in general on the NES back then was nothing but spectacular. I love your videos and thank you for sharing these experiences from your past with home videos. It brings a joyful tear to my eye when watching because it brings back so many great memories for me.
Mass Effect is hands down my favorite game experience ever .
I have played part one more times than I'd like to admit, it's a true masterpiece.
Man... such props to your dad for cataloging your life like this. I didn't get my first camcorder till I was about 15 years old, and most of that stuff is just me goofing off with friends (which is still great to have thoough). But I don't know anyone our age who personally has so many moments captured like this while growing up. I wish I could look back at the days when I first got these consoles/games and relive those experiences in better detail than what my memory still has to offer. There's so many seemingly "regular ol' days" that just get lost forever when your long term memory just tosses them into the trash bin. With these videos that your Dad was thoughtful enough to capture, you'll always be able to go back and visit memories in a way. It's almost like he made you your own time machine. He must have loved you so much.
Shenmue and Sonic CD! Shenmue was the "parents divorce" game for me. The game blew my mind when it came out and because of what was going on with my parents it was just a great escape for me when I was 10 years old.
As someone named Alex, Lunar was such a special game to me, and with it also being my first JRPG, it was just, a magical experience that I'll never forget. Nor will I ever forget being 8 years old, never played a JRPG before in my life, and hearing Nall go, "Alex, oh Alex!", and being like, "Wait, Alex? That's my name!", an absolute masterpiece of a game, and a game from which innumerable memories were created.
I'm really surprised by how many non Nintendo games made it onto your list. Can you please do a ranking of your favorite systems? That would be really cool to hear!
Awesome request! Will definitely get around to that
@@MyRetroLife thanks! 🙌
Tyler the love that was given to you by your family shows through in everything you do, all that you do is awesome.Thank you for sharing these moments of you and your families lives.
Appreciate you saying that!
I love how nostalgic your videos are brings me back to my childhood for sure!
Thanks Tyler!
Here’s a few of mine:
1. Mega Man 2 (Similar reasons to you. Played with my brothers when I was a young child)
2. Sonic 2 (1st games I played and beat without my brothers help)
3. Knights of the Old Republic (PC) (similar reasons to mass effect. Played during hard times in my 1st year of college)
4. Mario Odyssey (1st 3D Mario game I played)
5. Halo:Combat Evolved (PC) played huge LAN games with friends on the dorm network. The level of excitement and fun on that scale, with that many people I had never done before and still haven’t felt since.
Loved the video! Keep ‘em coming!!!
I have to agree that the water level on mario 64 brings a flood of awesome memories of that time. I also want to say that watching these videos remi ds me so much of my life growing up with video games. Keep them coming.
Thanks Michael!
Dude hearing about you and your dad playing games together is so heartwarming. I never knew my dad, and yours would be the one that I would've wanted. Awesome videos!
So many retro gaming RUclipsrs talk about their childhood and nostalgia. But what makes yours so special is that you have it on camera and you can see all the emotions that came along with it
I wish I could shake your dad’s hand, he seems like a guy I’d really like to hang out with. I’m so happy you have this footage to share, what a gift to your family and the rest of us by default. You really bring him to life for us and it’s such an amazing experience, so thank you both.
My condolences, my father passed back in 1996. I was 16 at the time. Video games have been a part of my life in some form since my Dad bought me the Atari 2600 in the early 80’s. Thanks for your great content on your channel!
Man I love this channel, there’s nothing else like it on RUclips, thanks for the great content man 🤙
My favorite game of all time is Streets of Rage 2. I was born in 1990 so it had to have been like 94 that my Dad and I played SoR2, and really, the entire series together. My Dad is now 62 and doesn’t really game anymore but I still remember a time when he was genuinely interested in playing games and when he used to watch me play. He used to ask how far I’ve gotten and made sure when I played Sonic 2 to not miss a single ring because that ring could be the ring I need to stay alive. It’s memories like that, that I wouldn’t trade for anything. Thank you for sharing all these videos, with us being so close in age when I see these things I get choked up because it bring back memories of similar experiences. Best channel ever ❤
I've been subscribed for a bit, but just wanted to say I love your channel. I was born in 83, and always felt like it was the last great age because we got to grow up with video games. As I aged, so did Nintendo, Sega, and Sony. It was an amazing time and I had many of the same memories as you did, just not on video. I honestly feel bad for my kids today ( I have 3). Games aren't the same anymore, movies are complete garbage, there's no good Saturday morning cartoons, etc. My oldest son who's 6 loves playing the old Mario games though. I'm trying my best to show him how great the older stuff was.
Keep up the good work!
I love how every game on this list has a specific time period and memory attached to it, this is how a top 10 should be. I love hearing all these stories and can relate heavily to how each one of these games defined a part of your childhood. Also PSO is so underrated and should be on more top 10's. Thank you for always sharing your stories 🙏
Thanks Joseph! Agreed on all that you said
Dude. I love your channel. Such a great storyteller. And your dad seems like the coolest guy ever!!!! So glad I found this.
I love this channel. Some of my all time favorites. EverQuest (PC) Duck Tales (NES) Tech Romancer (Dreamcast) Bass Landing (PS1) Champions of Norrath (PS2) Zelda (NES) Shenmue (Dreamcast) Sword of the Beserk (Dreamcast) Eternal Darkness (Gamecube) Metal Gear (NES)
I'm so Frickin happy I found your channel from videos with you and your dad and then the videos with your family its just so comforting to watch and a look into the past for gaming. ❤ I hope you blow up even more. ❤ I've been recommending your channel to everyone
Wonderful list. I remember putting off Lunar Silver Star Story Complete for a long time, but when I finally played it, I was blown away. What a beautiful story.
Hope your holiday was great.
Thanks Cole! Same to you. Lunar is magic
Sonic CD is also in my top 10, I'm also nostalgic about it. My uncle was always up on the latest games and coming to play this one with the CD quality music and effects, the time travel, it was so immersive for me ❤😊
Much like how Mass Effect got you through a hard time, BioShock did that for me. I was fresh out of high school, and my family and I had to move out if town for financial reasons. The entire trilogy picked me back up from that depressive state. It's amazing how powerful this art medium is.
Awesome video! You are one of the few True retro gaming channels on RUclips. No dollar signs in the thumbnail, no click bait titles about deals of a lifetime, no bragging about the total profits etc just straight up retro gaming and I love that. I never want to replace my childhood memories and nostalgia with money. Those things are priceless. Keep up the great content Tyler!
The way you talk about your dad, reminds me of the relationship I wish I had with mine. He passed in 2002. But my mom is who got me into video games. These videos really brings me nostalgia, and happiness. So thank you very much.
Loving this unique list 👍 Isn't it amazing how these experiential high points in gaming float like mountain peaks when we look back through those formative years. Thanks for sharing buddy 😁
It’s crazy how much of your Dad comes through in these videos. To the point that I feel some of the sorrow when you talk about him passing. Not so much that I knew him because obviously I didn’t, but more like knowing the world is a lesser place when people like your dad aren’t in it anymore.
Nice list. I played all those as a kid, too. Sega Dreamcast was a staple in the household. Some of my greatest memories!
Some on my list off the top of my head:
- Final Fantasy 4, 6, 7, and 9
- Final Fantasy Tactics
- Diablo 1 and 2
- Warcraft 2 and 3
- World of Warcraft
- Starcraft 1 and 2
- Sim City 2000
- Contra 3: The Alien Wars (this was on your list)
- Super Mario All Stars, specifically Super Mario 3
- Mega Man 3
- Super Castlevania 4
- Age of Empires 1 and 2
- Command and Conquer: Red Alert
- The Bindings of Isaac
Shenmue was an incredible experience. It hold a special place in my heart and memory. It was groundbreaking for its time and I too became absorbed in the game. The details in that game drew me in. I think I explored Ryos house for a good hour at the beginning before stepping outside. And then I just marveled at the garden and koi pond. Amazing!
Such a wonderful list, Tyler. We have so many games in common. I definitely was in the same camp with the Dreamcast, that this would be the console to bring Sega back into contention. Even though it never came to fruition, the Dreamcast, and particularly Shenmue and PSO are two of my all time favorites! Thanks for sharing!
It's been so nice finally seeing your top 10 and I enjoyed the personal touch that you added that lacks in other's lists. Keep up the good work Tyler, and have a wonderful year ahead
This has quickly become my favorite video game channel up there with Bithead1000. Keep 'em coming and I'll will never miss one... ever.
I was mesmerized by Shenmue when it first came out. I loved the Dreamcast, and was so bummed when it was discontinued. Both myself and my best friend.
He's unfortunately no longer with us. He was born with a heart condition, and wasn't expected to live 6 months. He wound up living up to be 32, before he finally succumbed, and we both were big gamers at the time. I think he loved Sega even more than me, and got to go to Japan, and bring home a bunch of imported games, which I'm happy to say are now a part of my collection, which he bequeathed to me.
Also, Tyler, I lost my father very suddenly in 2006, just a year before you lost yours, so I know the pain all too well, along with the comfort that could be found in gaming. As a matter of fact, the first Christmas after I lost him, I was in Wal-Mart looking for a gift for my sister, when someone suddenly came out with a cart full of Wii consoles. This was back when the Wii was impossible to get, as you'll surely remember, so I went ahead and snatched one right there. It was a Christmas miracle, and it felt like, somehow, my Dad had arranged it all from somewhere.
Speaking of Shenmue, have you ever played the Yakuza games? They feel almost feel like the evolution of the Shenmue formula.
Love stumbling across random channels that aren't insanely popular (yet) that get me subbing after 5 minutes! I can tell that talking about your childhood was bittersweet in that you had so many amazing memories but miss the people that were in it so badly every day. Growing up certainly isn't easy.
Shenmue 1 and 2 are my own favourites. The games were almost too ambitious for their own good and not everything was executed too well. But the games had such soul and charisma that are rarely found in modern day titles.
Another excellent video Tyler! Your videos are very therapeutic for me while I’ve been dealing with severe health problems. 🙏
Sorry to hear about your health Colin! Prayers for a complete recovery 🙏
The Mass Effect games are my personal favorite and I spent so many hours with my dad and friends playing Contra. I need to check out some of the other games, like Lunar, as well. Another great video. Made getting home after a long morning of work all that much better.
Tyler - your videos are great, man! I have so much of the same nostalgia that you do around some of the exact same titles....great stuff.
Love the diverse picks!
I always enjoy your videos. Growing up our parents always looked down on video games. I love seeing how your father was so passionate about playing along with you and filming all your experiences and memories. Priceless. Thank you for sharing.
Man ....Truly love your videos, you bring us all back in time. Thanks man
My pleasure, truly!
I think your dad would have loved Mass effect, and Dead rising and all of these other great games that came out on future consoles. My dad has been diagnosed with cancer fairly recently and me and you are the same age, I don't know how you went through what you did at that age because even now in my thirties I think I'll feel lost once my dad passes away. You are stronger than you know, thank you for sharing these videos. I'm not only a subscriber but a real fan and often go back to the ones I enjoy most for a pick me up.
Dude. This was an amazing video. I really appreciated the personal touch, the footage as a kid, your demeanor, everything felt very personal and genuine. Your parents did a good job. I absolutely subscribed and thank you for sharing this video with us.
Hey Tyler, awesome video as always. I met you at the retropalooza in Arlington, TX a few months ago and you were such a nice guy. I loved your dad's short film by the way. I do have a question/suggestion for a future video. How did you and your dad store your games? did you keep the packages or just stack the cartridges? Your videos are awesome. Keep it up!
So happy you put Shenmue on this list, it was the game that made me at least for a while, forget about the ps2. My buddy in high school had gotten a DC and was telling me about this game, i went over and was watching him play. I remember the forklift job you get for some reason really stood out. And the music to this day I catch myself humming it at work.
This channel hits hard with nostalgia, happiness and good memories.
Great list. Very very relatable. My #1 in terms of sheer lasting power has to be SOTN. I play it once a year STILL. I don't even feel nostalgic about it because it's been a constant in my life ha. My top nostalgia games are Mario 2, MegaMan 2-3, Resident Evil 1, Street Fighter 2 (SNES version) and Suikoden.
Really cool list. Some awesome and unexpected choices here, and hearing the backstory behind how much they mean to you is a great touch.
The amount of money I would pay to go back to the 90's is absurd...
After watching many of your childhood videos I’m convinced your legendary father was indeed one of the first adult gamers operating undercover: -‘Honey don’t you think our son has enough games already?’
-‘What do you mean?’
-‘I mean we have a mortgage…
-‘Don’t worry honey we are fine and what’s more important than our son’s happiness?’
-‘Yes but we have so many video games at home that all the neighbourhood kids raid the house every day!’
-‘But isn’t that great? Our son has so many friends to play with now!’
-‘Ok I’ll buy it but still…
-(‘Shit she’s getting too suspicious need to find better excuses next time’).
Great video man, love seeing the ending footage of you getting Mega Man 2. That story reminds me of when I was first exposed to Tekken 3 (I was born in 91). My neighbor would give me his EGM magazines after he was done reading them. One of them had screenshots of Tekken 3, which I didn't think much of but the big render of Jin Kazama stuck out. Then I saw the arcade machine in Gatlinburg TN and started playing it and like you with Mega Man, it absolutely blew my mind. One of those moments where ya think "It can't possibly get any better than this". I had a line of about 4-5 people trying to beat 11 year old me. Then Christmas of that year, I got both a PS1 and Tekken 3. :D
You and your dad were such a team and best father and son gamers by far on RUclips👍🏼💯
I have only seen a few of this guy videos. I just found this channel yesterday but I have seen enough to know that it’s heart breaking and he was close with his Dad and loved games. I am glad his dad lived to witness the Xbox 360 era which is pretty much the peak of console gaming.
Love that these choices are based on memories and heart rather than matching the conventional top ten games.
For me also a lot of games bring back exact moments or times in my life.
Nice one Tyler!
Beautiful video. Born in ‘82 here. The peaks for me seemed to align with Christmas time. Peak #1 NES with excite bike, and TLOZ. Peak #2 SNES with Super Mario World, Final Fantasy II and Secret of Mana. Peak #3 PlayStation with Battle Arena Toshinden , TOBAL, and Twisted Metal 2. Peak #4 Nintendo 64 and Mario 64.
Awesome video man!! You definitely had some great parents! I actually found out 3 days ago that my wife and I will be having our first child.. I can see the joy you and your father shared and I hope so bad I can give those same amazing memories to my kid
Ty for such an amazing year, you should be so proud of the channel and what you have accomplished. Btw, awesome picks, amazing how differently games inspire and touch people given their circumstances.
IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER. MARIO KART (SNES), TURTLE TOURNAMENT FIGHTERS (SNES), ZELDA LINK TO THE PAST (SNES), METAL GEAR SOLID (PS1), BATMAN (NES), METAL SLUG X (PS1), TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES (NES), STREET FIGHTER 2 TURBO (SNES), CONTRA ALIEN WARS (SNES) STREETS OF RAGE (MEGADRIVE).
LOVE YOUR CHANNEL DUDE, YOU WERE SO LUCKY AS A CHILD, I GREW UP WITH A SPECTRUM THEN A MASTER SYSTEM 2, MEGADRIVE, SNES THEN AMIGA THEN ONTO THE PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4 BUT THROUGHOUT ALL OF IT I ALWAYS WENT BACK TO MY RETRO GAMES THRU EMULATION. I JUST WISH I HAD VIDEO FOOTAGE OF IT ALL LIKE YOUR DAD DID FOR YOU. AWESOME VIDEOS AND AWESOME MEMORIES
I don't know if it's the same, but I'm disabled since almost 2 years old. Parents never separated and both still alive... I remember the XMAS we got a SNES bundle with a golden LOZ: LTTP cart.... Me and my Dad completed it together. I feel your story...
Knights into dreams was great. One of my core memories of being a little kid was playing this game.
This is how a top 10 should be, from the heart, not what you think others think it should be. For mine I'd have (in no particular order) :
RE 2
Final Fantasy 7
The Battle of Olympus NES
Super Mario Allstars SNES
Sonic 2
ZELDA: Link to the Past
Smackdown 2 Know Your Role
Gears of War
The Last of Us
RE 1
All of these I have great memories attached to them and when I play them it brings me back to good times growing up with good friends and family, some of whom are no longer here or live in different countries now. Good memories is what it's all about. Thanks for sharing some of your memories 👌
Man. What an awesome video and scarily we share a bunch of the same games in my top 10 just not in the same order. I was born in 84 so I experienced quite a but of the same stuff. The only two I didn’t have in my top 10 that you had was Phantasy Star Online. Funnily enough however I did have Phatasy Star Online Plus for Gamecube instead. I really enjoyed the 4 player local Coop. The other one was Mass Effect. I had Final Fantasy Tactics in place of that one. I loved that game and lost myself into it so much. Great games all around though.
Thank you. I love you, your videos and being able to get glimpses into your early life....which absolutely allows me to access memories I've forgotten or overlooked. There are those here on YT that bring that nostalgic magic...and you ,Sir,...are one of those rare magicians that bring that TRUE magic. I appreciate that more than you will ever know and/or perhaps understand. Much love and respect.
It’s always a good day when my retro life uploads
Shenmue is also one of my favorite dreamcast games too. I'm hoping they do a shenmue 4. Also i love it when you still share ur memoirs with us because a lot of us love you to take us down ur memory lane
YESSSSS SOTN LOVE
But yeah, my old man got me into games and he passed away back in 2014. I heavily relate to these videos, its what we bonded over.
I've been a fan from the very beginning and will always be, thanks for your effort and hard work
"This was the first Christmas without dad"... bro... 😭
Mario 64 blew my mind. I still remember playing it at a kiosk that was demonstrating the power of the N64 and I couldn't even believe what I was playing was even a videogame. Going from Super Mario World on the SNES where we were accustomed to the 2D sidescrolling era of Mario and just breaking down that wall and putting Mario in 3D where he can punch, kick and do backflips was out of this world back then. Might be the last game in my life that blew my mind to that extent.
I immediately starting saving for an N64 after playing Mario 64 for the first time.
Also, I cannot believe that Ocarina of Time didn't make your top 10! I was thinking to myself "Yea yea yea, OOT is #1 for sure" didn't even make top 10 lol
So happy someone put Nights into the top 10 games ever. I freaking love those games. From nights, christmas nights and journey into dreams on the wii. One of the first games that i ever seen with beautiful fmv and the duet track in nights became a staple to the greatness of the game and segas mastery in creating magic in their games.
Mass Effect hit hard for me too. I lost my father going into my freshman year of college '07. Its just one of those beautiful RPGs that you can lose yourself to the world and characters. I have to agree, for me, it came out at just the right time.
Another was Mario 64; A game I can happily play over and over again and never get sick of. The flood of memories that sweep through every time I play is immense and sometimes even overwhelming. I cant listen to dire dire docks without getting choking up at times.
Tyler, did You and your Dad ever venture into PC gaming during the late 90s too? Outside of Console gaming, some fond memories for me were pc games like MMOs (Star Wars Galaxies) , half-life, rollercoaster tycoon, Neverwinter Nights, Battlefield, Command & Conquer, etc. etc.
I am stoked to find that mega man 2 is actually on the NES Classic Edition mini console that I happen to own and just haven't fully explored yet. I didn't know I owned that game!!! I'm excited to play it with some of the appreciation that you shared for it in my corner. Thank you so much for sharing your top ten! Super Mario 64 is one of my top games of all time too.
Dude I know this might come off as a bad question or request. But could you do a video on your dad? The fact he was also passionate about gaming and clearly shared it with you and you had an amazing childhood due to this.
He seemed so cool!
I don’t know how else to word this. I hope it doesn’t come off as disrespectful
In 2000, im happy i had a skateboard , but im happy u had castlevania on ur list
BRILLIANT list. I could never come up with a top 10 list. Being 60 years old, I go back to the era of Pong (my first “console”) and the Atari 2600, and have owned so many consoles since then, and have played so many games, it would be tough to come up with a list of 10 games. You did an amazing job.
All I could say is that Doom, and Resident Evil 1 are definitely at the top of my list, along with EA’s NHL series (probably their 1st NHL game, because it was so amazing). I might be able to come up with favorite game per console.
Shenmue is definitely the first game I think of when I think of the Dreamcast. The Dreamcast is definitely in my top 5 favorite consoles of all time.
Great video and list as always.My top ten are Contra Nes,Super Mario Bros 3 Nes,Robocop vs Terminator Megadrive,Super Mario 64,Golden Eye,wave Racer 64,Metal Gear Solid 1,2 and 3(psone and ps2),Gran Turismo 3,Outrun 2 and Uncharted 2.
Just discovered the channel. Really cool getting your perspective on these games especially because we are around the same age and I have had very similar experiences.
Definitely subscribed and am gonna work my way through all the videos on the channel. Please keep this up!
Definitely gonna check some of these out, always looking to try games that I've never heard of with unique experiences.
YES. So happy to see PSO on your list. Its one of my favorite games ever too. It was a way for me and my older brother to bond and hang out when we were younger. So many fun days and nights playing together and leveling up. We didn’t have online but we didn’t care, we just loved it
When I saw the list started with Nights! At number 10 I knew this was gonna be one heck of a list! 👍🏾
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night would be in my top 10 for sure. I finally got around to buying a really nice original copy this year for my birthday. It took me three tries and months but I got it.
Dark Souls is my favorite game of all time. I started playing it in May 2013 with a friend of mine that I hadn'tspoken much to in about eight years. We would talk on the phone while we played through it to help each other out. This rekindled a friendship that I hold to this day. I then got laid off from my job a month later and as the struggles in the game paralleled my struggles in real life, Dark Souls became a perfect metaphor for overcoming tough challenges. For these reasons, it will always be my favorite game.
some of my favorite games include skylanders trap team(my favorite game of all time, super nostalgic, still have fun playing it), knack(i know everyone hates it but i frickin' love it), spyro ripto's rage(the first game i ever played and still one of my favorites), ni no kuni wrath of the white witch(played it for the first time this year and it blew me away. it was just amazing in every way)
Hey Tyler, there actually was a sequel to Nights on the Wii. It is Nights:Journey Into Dreams
Amazing video….I still haven’t tried Sonic CD. Mario 64 absolutely blew my mind when I first played it. I still remember that day. My step Dad drove us to the city to get an RF adapter to connect the N64 to our older tv. Fantastic memories ❤.
Lunar
I really gotta give Lunar a shot, I have the fan translation of it for Saturn. If I were to say my #1 favorite game it would probably be the first Metal Slug. I'd played lots of games up until I played that one but it's the game that got me really into and hooked on gaming. When my dad gave me the import copy for Saturn I was so happy because I finally could play my favorite game at home. I knew it, before you said it in the video I bet his number 1 is Mega Man 2
Why you dont have more subs and views is beyond me. Thankyou so much for sharing bro! Happy New Year. Your work is just gold!
I had the same experience as you, but with Mega Man X! Drove to my cousin's house saw Mega Man X and later that day Mega Man 7, it blew my mind back in the day! And like you, I pretended to be Mega Man :) Those were the best times! Mega Man X is my favorite game of all time!
I’m going with shenmue 1-2&3 on this recommendation. Never would have thought about it. My future mail looks promising. Looking forward to it
Might have to try sonic cd now also 😂
Hey dude. I'm newly subscribed to your channel. The home videos, They really really bring me back. Thanks for sharing and hope all is well.
I have so much to say about your videos , but all I’m gonna say is a big THANK YOU. 👍🏼 keep being awesome bro
Two things.
1. Even though I don't share your preference of genre, I love hearing anyone, you specifically speak about something the person is passionate about.
2. I did have a Dreamcast as well, and even though I didn't USUALLY like that genre of game, I absolutely LOVED Shenmue and have been TRYING to beat Shenmue 2 on Steam for a few years now. lol ...
(Notice I said "trying to.")🤣😂
So, yeah..one of your top 10 is also on my list.
Shenmue.
Why trying to? Is it the difficulty level?
Working my way through your channel the last few months. Really appreciate the videos
Geeze right in the feels with the dad stuff. Thank you for getting vulnerable.
