It... was released on the Wii U. I know, I have the version with the game and the digital version of Hyrule Historia preloaded on it.

I know that, but I mean that the game could have been originally released on the WII U without any graphic enhancements and I think it still would have been considered a pretty looking game

Heroes Might and Magic 3 have also aged decently, sure the grafics are a little lacking but the gameplay is still suberb and for many the game is carries on the shoulders of nostalgia anyway
UT 2004 have also aged quite well (on ultra settings) the multiplayer online is still going strong and the single player is really good.

Both are PC games.

[Black Lotus]

Legacy of Kain
Tetris
Pac-Man
Marvel vs Capcom 2
Parasite Eve
Street Fighter 2
Neverwinter Night

[JackofTears]

I don't see Parasite Eve come up very often these days. I loved the first game (aside from the optional tower grindfest) but never managed to get into the others.

The Marble Blast games aged very well. Recently took a look back at them for some research. Still lovely.

Wing Commander 3 / 4. Excellent games and still a lot of fun.
"You pathetic descendant of monkeys!"

Custom Robo (GameCube version)

Chrono Trigger (SNES but they did a make for the PS1 back in the day)

Super Mario world (SNES)

The first three Sly Copper games (PS2, the graphics on one are horrendous but the game play is still fun)

Spyro the Dragon (PS1)

Half Life series (PC)

Postal 2 (PC)

Psychonauts (PC)

Stars Wars Battlefront 2 (PS2, the OG)

Star Wars Rebel Assault 2 The Hidden Empire (PS1, its a mixture of video footage and low poly models but the fun comes from the random death scenes for both the enemy and you)

[crystalizer32]

star wars battlefront 2 (ps2) (2005)
half-life 1 and 2 (pc) (1998 2004)
the spyro trilogy (ps1) (1998,1999,2000)
quake 2 (pc) (1997)
return to castle wolfenstein (pc) (2001)
duke nukem 3d (pc) (1996)
link to the past (snes) (1991)

those are some of the ones i can think of off the top of my head

I recently started up Fire Ant on the C Plus 4. Said computer was the first system I ever owned and I loved it, even though it was a domed system. What surprised me about Fire Ant was just how playable and indeed enjoyable this game still is some 30+ years later. Remarkable!

I've also a soft spot for old school, first person RPGs. The likes of Ishar, Might & Magic, Wizardry etc hold a charm for me that I feel more modern RPGs lack. Wizards & Warriors (2000) for PC has currently been doing the rounds and I'm pleased to report it still holds up surprisingly well.

Civilization II.

[Everis]

The first Unreal game holds up well, in graphics and gameplay alike.

[Inkdipper]

My go to is Zombies Ate My Neighbors for SNES. It's difficult enough, fun with a friend, and the first roguelite games that I can recall.
Wish I still had my physical copy, but all my classic games were stolen a few years ago. Emulation is a beautiful thing.

Mirror's edge still looks great, especially at higher resolutions.
I still play Diablo 2 from time to time as well, mods have given that game a new life.

[Matcam89]

Yeah I have Zombies ate my neighbors for Genesis always a fun game

[Sirgeorge]

Custom Robo (GameCube version)

Stars Wars Battlefront 2 (PS2, the OG)

I remember seeing Machinima of the original battlefront games. Ah, good times.

[Hyperweasle]

Custom Robo (GameCube version)

That game controls like a beauty, even for today's standards, the combat controls are really smooth and are easy to grasp, unlike some older games. The N64 one controls almost just as well, which I find surprising, givens its age.
