Hey man, i'm 38. 20 year old games aren't even "old games" to me. I came up in the SNES/Genesis era. I play NES games older than me lol.

What's your favorite SNES or NES game?

I played a lot of Street Fighter and Punch Out back then :)

But the most nostalgic game for me is GoldenEye on N64. So many late nights playing with friends!
