Do you find the old games (i.e., NES) more fun to play than the new games?

Depends on the mood I'm in and on the game.

Rarely... especially considering the NES era, most of those games have little storyline, plots, character progression and things like that that make me interested in a game.

back then it was all about the gameplay and pretty much nothing else

For me I love the old games alot, and I would say I like playing them just as much as new games.

Most of my favorite jrpgs, fighting games, vertical shooters and so forth happened in the 90s. Side scrolling beat-em-ups are still awesome to me. Few developers even try to make good platforming games anymore.

So yes with some exceptions im pretty old school in my tastes.

I can honestly say that I find retro games to be more fun than most games released now days. I like some modern games (mostly Nintendo and Capcom games), but I just prefer the artwork and the simple straight-forward gamplay sty1e of retro games. For instance, I've had more fun playing Contra III and Gunstar Heroes on Wii VC than I had playing Perfect Dark ZeroandGears of War on 360.MLJ28

Usually.

32/64>16>Last Gen>This Gen>8

Is usually how I feel about gaming in terms of fun and quality. So I usually play a mixture of both old and new.

Can't really complain though I have MUCH more games on my backcatalogue of those eras to keep me busy.

It's really weird, but this is how I feel.

I DO feel like older games like NES and SNES games are more fun to play whenever I get new game and play them.

like an old man I am, I usually say "Ah, they made better games back in the days."

However, whenever I dig up old games and actually play them, they aren't as fun as new games these days like when I try to play bubble bobble, it isn't fun as much as I remember them to be.

Of course there are some timeless games that's always fun like Secret of Mana, Chrono Trigger, etc.
