"Rainy day game(s)..."
, posted Sat 20 Mar 16:24
Well, it's raining here all day, and it made me think of playing some "older" game titles. I decided to flash back to the early 1990's with some SNES NBA JAM! and man was it a blast. Just wondering if any people here have some games they often break out when they're not playing anything new, or just for old time fun??

I know a good number of rainy day games, but they all involve a second person...

Ah,NBA Jam! Who could forget? Boomshakalakalaka! That was such a dumb saying.
Hmmm,usually I'll once in a great while revisit Darkstalkers 3 and thinking of happier times before GG ever came along,and also Pocket Fighter.

Normally, I like to give all my older games a whirl here and there. But, rainy days in particular call for dark atmospheres with maybe some amount of exploration involved. So, games like Super Metroid and would do it for me -- even the relatively newer Castlevanias would work (Symphony of the Night, Legacy of Darkness, GBA titles). RPGs would work too, though I normally crave action/adventure titles.
... for some odd reason, Kid Icarus for the NES is also coming to mind. I'm guessing because of the *-4 maze castles and the accompanying music.

I'm in total agreement that SoR2 is a great rainy day game. I really should get a used MegaDrive or Genny again to play this classic. I also love Double Dragon for GBA... and recently I have discovered Fire Emblem.
I guess the game I have played the most in recent times is CvS2 on XBox Live. The game never gets old for me and I have been trying out new characters when I get bored of playing the ones I usually use.
Shock Troopers is a game I wish I had for rainy days... but unfortunately I do not own a Neo Geo.
