Super Mario World is an awesome game and I wish I had an actual SNES to play it on instead of an emulator.
I played Alone in the Dark (1992 version) on DOSBox, now me and my sister have a running joke about how the female character's breasts are shaped like pyramids. I also played a few other games I used to play on Floppy Disks.
I remember one time I went to a friend's house and I played Banjo Kazooie on their N64.
I've been using Virtual PC to play old games I used to play that only run on XP, and a few games for Windows 98.

I wanna play more classic games but I don't really know which ones I should try. My personal choices right now are rather limited due to limited knowledge of gaming before my time :P
Does anyone have any suggestions?

(also I'm sure the PC-98 Touhou games count as Retro games, I play those too.)

Well personally I feel my normal choices of games are much too picky, so I'm trying to be open to anything.

The original Crash Bandicoot and Spyro games were easily the best games of their time, the quality in their games has sadly gone down since Twinsanity/Wrath of Cortex and Year of the Dragon respectively.

I had Donkey Kong Country 2 on the GBA and I didn't find it all that great.

For me it's not because of the worse graphics or the worse music, it's just the fact that I don't like the gameplay. Also the music style itself isn't really my cup of tea. I'd rather Super Mario World over Donkey Kong any day.
