What would you all say is your favorite old skool game of all time and why? I have alot of difficulty picking one from all the ones I love but Super Mario 3 (NES) tends to stand out for me an awful lot for it's enjoyable gameplay, powerups and levels. Not to mention that it introduces the w00tness that is the Koopa Kids :-3 Also the game was difficult at points but not SO difficult it would leave you screaming in caveman language while hurling the controller around like a pair of nunchucks. It was difficult enough to be challenging yet make you want to keep trying. The newer Mario games just infuriate me and aren't very fun at all IMHO.

Sonic. I fell in love with the game as soon as I started to play it. Too bad the new games are shit.
