A timeless classic on any system! Even though the remake is.... 20 years(!!!) old, its still an excellent way to play the game. They updated the graphic and interface, but kept all the core gameplay the same. There's never been a pirate rpg\sim as comprehensive as Pirates!
This truly is timeless in that this still plays and replays really well even at the most basic of levels. Even the rip offs of this tend to be good.
And Pirates Gold on the Sega Genesis is a good option for any emulation handhelds, basically a pixel art version of the remake.
I loved this game so much.
I played it for the first time last year, and it's still awesome, if a bit janky.
