I’ve been enjoying emulating games recently - mostly NES, ps1 and gba - and I’m looking to branch out from my limited familiarity as I mostly play games I’ve played in the past (and then it was mostly rentals- so very limited exposure lol).

What games would you recommend checking out? Basically across any ps1-equivalent generation system or earlier. I’m interested in the FF series but have no idea where to start either 🤷‍♂️

My rotation atm:

PS1: Medal of Honor, ssx,

GBA: Pokémon firered, wario

NES: castlevania, ninja gaiden

PS2 era survival horrors. There was a lot of them at the time, and RE4 hadn't yet caused them to all homogenate into one uniform structure, so you'd have stuff like Silent Hill 2, and Forbidden Siren, and Fatal Frame, and Resident Evil: Outbreak, all playing completely differently.
