Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. The original PlayStation release is the only one that has the terrible (in a good way) translation and voiceover work. It also holds up perfectly - I only played it for the first time a few years ago, and it’s easily my favorite Metroidvania. It’s still the king of the genre that partly bears its name, even now decades after it came out.

super metroid. (Please note there’s a run button.)
I loved when old games had a basic mechanic you could ignore for 99% of the game, but you’d softlock yourself if you forgot it exists.
Crouch-jumping was another offender.
Tears of the Kingdom is so much better at 60+ FPS. And also makes Nintendo cry, which is an even better reason.
Just replying Soma Bringer for the DS. Never got an official English translation, but the fan translation is really good.
It’s an action RPG with loads of character customisation, and a very robust multiplayer mode.I’m currently playing - Demon Souls (PS3) Sly Cooper (PS2) Neopets: The Darkest Faerie (PS2) Pokemon Sapphire (GBA)
My friend group regularly plays Mario Party 6 and 7 (GameCube) as well.
Dragons Blood/Draconis on the Dreamcast. It’s a great forgotten romp through a grimdark fantasy world.
Any Zelda, most Fire Emblem games, most Final Fantasy games, Final Fantasy Tactics, Ogre Battle/Tactics Ogre, lots of JRPGs (Mana, 7th saga…), Chrono Trigger, most Castlevanias, Summon Night (1 and 2, both GBA games), some of the Metroid games, Mario RPG… This is easily 500h of games.
Switch exclusive games. Fire Emblem, Zelda, Pokemon. PS3 there’s some games not on PC like Eternal Sonata
Dark Chonicle/Dark Cloud 2, it’s one of Level-5’s best games of all time on the PS2
