What's the oldest game anyone here has played in 2024?

Was playing a bit of Stunt Car Racer for the Amiga this week, from 1989, and wondered how far back people are going!

  • Mother, NES, 1989

    • If you have played Earthbound, is Mother 1 still worth a play?

      • I have played earthbound many times before I played mother. If you are a huge fan of the series, yes it's worth playing. But it's not necessary, earthbound is almost more of an enhanced remake than a sequel. Sure, there are some differences, but nothing compared to mother 3.

        • That's how I always saw it. I have Mother 3 ready to go. I always have Mother 3 ready to go, yet I barely get anywhere in it. Maybe after I finish Final Fantasy.

          I loved Earthbound, and grinded for at least the home run bat (I think that was Ness' best weapon). Mother 3 just either doesn't hook me immediately, or maybe things always came up. Any spoiler free input on the situation is welcome

          • Actually happened to me too. I'm pretty far into the game but I made the mistake of trying to play 2 JRPGs back to back. The older I get, the less I'm able to grind that much. I have to switch up genres between my main gaming love of RPG to something else in between to not get burnt out.

            • That's actually what I am afraid of. Although, I don't know if I unintentionally grind, or if I'm just the only person that never runs from a random encounter. Final Fantasy I has been a cake walk, I've pretty much always felt over leveled if anything
