A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I strangely haven't been in the mood recently to play anything other than emulated NES/SNES-era games. I'm open to recommedations (yes, I already played CronoTrigger).
Kind've an odd suggestion, but if you like more arcade-y type games, and think you'd an enjoy a more advanced sorta spiritual successor to dig-dug, I'd recommend checking out Mr.Do! On the SNES. Weirdly good.
Sunset Riders is a fun and short western arcade shooter, as is Wild Guns.
There's also a pretty neat Shadowrun RPG on the SNES.
Ah yeah I played Shadowrun as a kid. I think I might still have that cartridge somewhere.
Mr. Do doesn't seem to be in my list of roms though. I may need look for that.
