What Was the Platypus Playing Back Then?

Autumn is always a time of nostalgia for me. It was my favorite season growing up, and I have many happy memories attached to it. For some reason, it also gives me a hankering (rarely fulfilled) for playing some old school video games.

5. Secret of Mana
6. Final Fantasy II
7. Final Fantasy III
8. Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
9. Final Fantasy
10. Metroid
