Sonic The Hedgehog Addictions and The Importance of Graphics in a Game

I own a Nintendo Wii. I have purchased some Wii Virtual Console games more than a year and a half ago. A couple of these games are Sonic the Hedgehog 1 and 2. I recently started playing Sonic the Hedgehog 2 again. I just love the simplicity of the older games. When I look at some more recent video game titles, I just see more “good graphics” come along than actual content at times.

Don’t get me wrong! I love some of the new games out today. Also, a few games got much, much better partly because of the graphics (i.e. Final Fantasy X), but I still think that when people had less room for graphics, they had to be more creative when it came to the game. Some people make fun of the Nintendo Wii’s graphics performance (I think it’s good enough). But isn’t the point of a game to be fun? Some games have the best graphics, but they weren’t very fun…

I’m just repeating myself over and over now… Anyway, what “old school” games do you like? Let’s discuss.
