Well, this time, I figured I'd download a game I've never played before, or a game that I first heard of through the Virtual Console, such as with Bonk's Adventure, which ended up being a really great game.
For RPG's, I was thinking of Breath of Fire 2 or Phantasy Star 2, but it would really stink to play the sequels without playing the originals, which aren't available on the VC. I've played Phantasy Star 2 very briefly, and I played about 10 minutes of the first Breath of Fire. If I get Breath of Fire 2, maybe I'll check out the first one on the GBA or an SNES emulator. I've played the blazes out of PSO, and it would be nice to actually play more than realizing why the Principal figured he'd yell in my face in Phantasy Star 2.
For Adventure-ish games, I was thinking of Neutopia 1 or 2. I'd probably go with 1 first, and get the sequel later on. I was also thinking of Zelda: Ocarina of Time since my jerk of a friend stole and sold it, but I've played it about a million times. It wouldn't be a new experience at all.
Since Bonk's Adventure was so great, I was thinking about getting one of its sequels now available on the VC. Since its sequels were released on the VC, I guess it got pretty popular, rightfully so. Another platformer I was thinking of was Super Mario Bros. The Lost Levels (Super Mario Bros. 2 in Japan, of course), but after playing the first one, it really occurred to me that I don't really like the first SMB that much, and getting a game that uses a near identical engine would be pretty silly if I didn't like the first.
I remember renting 1080 Snowboarding on the N64 and my siblings liking it, but Snowboarding games aren't exactly my cup of tea.
There's also Kirby's Dream Course, which is a game I had loads of fun with on an emulator long ago.
So, out of these, which would you recommend the most?
Edit: OH, goodness, I forgot about King of Fighters '94. King of Fighters '94 is probably the best fighting game on the VC right now, so it's easily on my list of considerations.
Here's a list of considerations, if that was a tl;dr post.
