What games make you feel like a kid again? What feelings do you get when you play that game?

For me? Animal Crossing GCN, Wind Waker, OoT, Sonic Adventure 2 Battle, Luigi's Mansion, and probably some others.

But for OoT, SA2B, & Luigi's Mansion, I remember waking up at 8am every saturday and jumping onto the gamecube to play them. Animal Crossing and Wind Waker, well, that's different. I remember coming home from school every friday, if I was in a funk or something and I was go in my room, open up the blinds to let the bright light in and play animal crossing or wind waker for hours. They just made me feel... happy. I would play those at 8 am also, but mainly, it made me feel content. I know, weird.

Pokemon Yellow. My one got stolen but I finally got it back I've had it since 1998 or 1999. IDR

 

[Caius]

Yoshi's story.

 

[Callie]

Playing anything on my SP, because I remember every year asking for one because I knew it had a back light (I had a GBA before). After 3 years of not getting one, I gave up, and assumed I'd never get one, so I didn't ask. That year I got it (in retrospect it was probably because that year I'd played my GBA a lot more than the previous years).

Ham Hams Unite
Ham Ham Heartbreak
Pokemon Stadium (haven't played it since I was little, but I know if I play it I'll feel like a little kid)
Watching my brother play pikmin 2 and luigi's mansion a while ago with his friend (I used to watch them do that as a kid)
Super Smash Bros. Melee (first gamecube game I ever played)
Mario Party 4
Mario Kart Double Dash!!
Mario Kart 64 (played that with my friend in the hospital when I was diagnosed with type one diabetes)

Animal Crossing on gamecube for sure. I remember countless (or seemingly countless) summers/spring breaks/winter breaks being dedicated to playing that. My cousin would bring her memory card over, we'd visit eachother's towns all the time, etc. I was always against time travel, so I even remember waking up one morning really early to do Officer Copper's morning aerobics.

Smash Bros Melee, big time. I've got three brothers, two younger, one way older- and for the most part we didn't talk to my oldest brother. He just kinda' did his own thing. But smash bros definitely brought us together. He actually took an old soccer trophy he had, went online, printed out a smash brothers picture, and shaped it to fit over his picture in the soccer trophy. So we had a "Smash Bros. Trophy" for whoever was the "champion" at the time. It was good stuff.

And then of course Kingdom Hearts reminds me of being a kid and thinking it was just the most mindblowing game ever. The Ace Attorney series reminds me of... Panera Bread, for some reason. Pokemon was another thing that connected me and my older brother. I remember sitting up in his room late at night, our gameboy advance's plugged into the wall, playing Pokemon Gold/Silver like crazy.

Portal's mildly nostalgic for me now, too. And Half Life. Umm, Sly Cooper, Ty the Tasmanian Tiger, Crash Bandicoot, and things like that too. I could probably go on forever.
