Message: [QUOTE="TamagotchiTamaHero24, post: 241974, member: 215120"] I’m interested to see what the forum thinks. I personally there are different “mascot games” based on the era of emulation we are referring to, but my big games are as follows: 1. Final Fantasy V - The “lost” SNES Final Fantasy was super enticing to people in and around the late 90’s-early 00’s with emulation. Most people didn’t have great SNES emulation available, but this game was so much of a missing puzzle piece and Final Fantasy was so hot at the time around the world that FFV became the game to play. 2. Earthbound - Infamously a financial bomb, most people have played this game only through emulation for decades. And for that way, it shall remain, as the original game is still a collectors item among collectors items. It’s quirky, non-conforming, and the perfect kind of game to appeal to the internet age when things that were niche and funky began to have more dedicated communities around them. 3. Chrono Trigger - It’s Chrono Trigger. Its legend has only grown with time. Akira Toriyama’s art is all over it, so fans of his work want to play it. It’s one of the best classic RPG’s, so RPG fans want to play it. It’s one of the best GAMES for many people, so people in general want to play it. It’s the game to play, and it’s expensive in the west, so to emulation we go. 4. Pokémon Emerald - GBA was cracked and emulated very early on, and the best GBA Pokémon title was always going to be high in demand. Pokémon is a massive emulation draw anyway, always has been, but Emerald is the game you can’t seem to escape nowadays. 5. Super Mario 64 - The 3D benchmark game. People just love this game, they love hanging out in it, they love dissecting it, and it has the most dedicated fandom for a single game I’ve ever seen. It’s on another level, so this game has always been emulated even when other N64 titles are not. That’s my list. Are there any others you think should be included? Any games that are just icons of the emulation scene? [automerge]1750546356[/automerge] I forgot to add Little Samson. Hecc [/QUOTE]
