I'm also contractually obligated to suggest the original Fire Emblem games - Fire Emblem and Fire Emblem Gaiden. The first FE isn't quite as polished as later games in the series, but it is a classic that set the stage for many more games to come. And FE Gaiden is fun if you want something a little different - a Fire Emblem game with an SMB3-style world map.
All feedback is great. I will check out the Dragon Warrior/Dragon Quest series. Last year, I played the new polished version of FF1, I also have FF2 (polished). I have yet to finish the first game, probably not too much more effort unless I want to get 100% achievements and what-not, I am not sure how much effort I am going to put into the NES versions, considering I already went through the first game.
I was reading about the Fire Emblem NES games, almost added, but I heard the games were hard to get into if you start from the beginning. I have never played any game from the Fire Emblem series (knowing Marth from Smash Bros.), but I would like to. I will add the games to the list for good measure.
EDIT: I did not see Louis Paul's post, I will surely add/check those games out too! A good list is grand, playing all those games, especially if I want to go to other older systems is a long haul!!!!!!
