What games have you replayed in adulthood that still held up? (hexbear.net)

I just bought a handheld emulator (Anbernic RG35XX) and I’m now overwhelmed with options.

I’m also expecting to be destroyed by the games some of you were playing as children, but whatever. Anything PS1 and older is appreciated.

Somehow my tastes stagnated and ossified so I mostly only play my childhood games. That said those that stood up the most are

Super Smash Bros Melee
Super Mario 64
Wave race 64
1080 Snowboarding
Rise of Nations

Those 5 games have cumulatively, for better or for worse, consumed a pretty sizable chunk of my lifespan. Sounds depressing to think of it that way, but then they did such a good job of being fun that I continue to enjoy that time so you got to hand it to them, they're hella good games.
