Rediscovering Classic RPGs on Modern Consoles – Which Ones Still Hold Up?

Featured Replies

Posted

I recently picked up a Nintendo Switch after years of PC gaming and wanted to dive into some classic RPGs I missed or never really played back in the day. I grabbed a few titles like "Chrono Trigger" and "Secret of Mana" through the eShop, but I’m curious how well these games actually hold up on modern hardware and with today’s gaming standards. I’m especially interested in RPGs that offer a strong story and engaging gameplay but don’t feel too dated or grindy. I’ve tried a couple of remasters and they look great, but I’m wondering if the gameplay still feels smooth and if the difficulty is balanced. Also, any tips on whether I should stick to the originals or go for remastered versions? Has anyone else recently revisited classic RPGs on modern consoles? Which games surprised you the most, and which ones felt like they didn’t age well? Any recommendations for must-play titles that combine nostalgia with solid mechanics?
