What is your favorite retro system and game? What was the first system you owned?

Is there a retro game series you'd like to see brought to the next gen (PS4/XBONE) systems?

I would count retro as PS2/Original Xbox (since they are 2 generations old now) or older.

My favorite was/is/always will be the SNES.... a huge library of games (many of them classics), decent graphics, great system and controller design... it was the 4th system I owned. Favorite game was Legend of Zelda: A LInk to the Past. First system I owned was the Atari 2600. I'd love to see Bubble Bobble on the next gen systems.

Favourite retro system: Sega Genesis because of all the time I wasted playing it.

Favourite retro game: since you're including PS1 as retro I'll go with FF7. It's my favourite game ever still to this day.

I still want an HD remake of FF7 dammit!

As for a retro series they should bring back, streets of rage. Loved all of them and they just don't make beat em ups anymore.

Castle Crashers?

But they have re-released FF7, on PS Vita i'm sure.

Also, is the Wii U next gen? You mentioned PS2/Xbox Original but no Gamecube?

Favourite Retro Console is the N64, because no loading times :D! Also they need to bring back Timesplitters.

Wii U is definitely next gen.... Gamecube is slightly older than the PS2 so it is retro.

The FF7 game on PSP was a prequel

I'd have to find the article but I read that Squaresoft has said they will never make an HD FF7 even though there was a petition that got a shitload of signatures demanding it. Square/Enix is the WWE of gaming.. they just don't listen to the fans.

Lol it's not like a remastering will do it any good, have you seen the FFX HD Remake they have coming out, there's like hardly any difference besides color rerendering/background rendering :)

Sega Genesis was my favorite old school system. It was also my first system when I was about 5 or so. Fast forward 20 years, I can't believe what we have now.

Super Nintendo because of Donkey Kong Country series, Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The Past, and Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest
PS1 because of Metal Gear Solid.

I'd like to see DKC series remade.
