A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

The Legend of Zelda. My kid finished Breath of the Wild and Tears and wanted more, so I put him on the original.
Hasn't aged a day. Still mind blowing. Still a ton of fun.
I’m a fan of some even earlier RPGs… Miracle Warriors, Phantasy Star, Phantasy Star II and Ys.
Metroid Prime. I don't have a gamecube, and I so wish I did. That game got so many hours out of me and nothing has come close since.
For me fallout 3 played the originals when they first came out (yes I'm old) and loved fallout 4 but fallout 3 will always be my favorite because not only did they resurrect a classic but they did it amazingly well
Also Chrono Cross, definitely one of the better stories Square has written.
WoW classic/vanilla. Final fantasy 7 PS1, final fantasy tactics PS1. Divinity original sin 2. Chrono trigger and cross. Elder scrolls daggerfall, morrowind, oblivion and Skyrim. Super Mario 64. Snes Mario kart. Zelda link to the past. Sonic the hedgehog 1. Contra. Super smash brothers on gamecube. Mario party 1 2 and 3. Super Mario rpg legend of the seven stars.

If you love FF Tactics, check out FFT 1.3
and the solid custom stories/mods built on the FFT engine
There are some phenomenal rebalances and new stories for the original PS1 (and PSP if you prefer) engine.
FFT 1.3 is legitimately challenging (there's an easy mode that's worth playing too), ungimps the AI, and makes some fights quite hard. It completely rebalances classes to make them all useful and interesting.
I have a Mr. Do! arcade machine which feels pretty timeless to me.
Ms. Pac Man.
It's such a good game to play in an arcade.
Uniracers for the Snes still looks, sounds and plays great. It's like a 2d Tony hawk racing game with unicycles.
Can't believe Nethack doesn't top the list.
