The oldest game I still really enjoy is probably The Secret of Monkey Island for DOS (1990). I like classic NES games too but I don't really play them anymore.

What's yours?

I do still fire up the old 8-bit and 16-bit games a lot, but the oldest in regular rotation would have to be the 1982 Atari 2600 Fishing Derby I still bust out once or twice a month when I need to clear my head.

It was great when I was little, and nowadays the gameplay actually still holds up for me while also triggering warm nostalgic thoughts about that time in my life.

Fishing Derby is fantastic.

Sadly, my spot in my game room for the 2600 has to take turns with a few other systems, or I would play a lot more Fishing Derby.
