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.

Not a childhood game, but the Japan-only SNES strategy RPG Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War is a great handheld emulator game! There's English patches for it.

Some random games from the mid 90s and earlier that I enjoyed when I was younger:

PS1: Final Fantasy Tactics, Final Fantasy 9, Lego Racing

SNES: Final Fantasy 4, Super Mario World

GBA (not of this era, but they'll probably run on your Anbernic): Fire Emblem (any of the GBA games, but Blazing Blade aka just Fire Emblem is a great starting point), Metroid Fusion

GBC: Link's Awakening DX

Edit: GB: Donkey Kong 94
