I’ve been enjoying emulating games recently - mostly NES, ps1 and gba - and I’m looking to branch out from my limited familiarity as I mostly play games I’ve played in the past (and then it was mostly rentals- so very limited exposure lol).

What games would you recommend checking out? Basically across any ps1-equivalent generation system or earlier. I’m interested in the FF series but have no idea where to start either 🤷‍♂️

My rotation atm:

PS1: Medal of Honor, ssx,

GBA: Pokémon firered, wario

NES: castlevania, ninja gaiden

Ack, I typed out a reply on my phone, then never sent it and lost it lol. These are all available on FEUniverse, which I saw SmithrunHills link.

Anyways, for me The Morrow's Golden Country is peak. I've beat it once and I'm another sitting away from beating it again.

I remember playing some of Vision Quest years ago and liking it, but I never got far. It's an older project than TMGC, but rightfully a community pillar.

I got someways into Cerulean Crescent and liked what I was seeing, but also stalled out.

Embrace of the Fog was a neat little thing in that it was a roguelike/lite (I don't remember the difference), but the start was a little too underpowered with slow progression so I haven't returned.

I will probably return to all of these at some time, I did appreciate them.
