Who dares wins 2 on Atari 8-bit. Way inferior compared to the C64 version but one of the games on my first own computer.

Once I've found how comfortable is play with wireless Xbone gamepad, with PC connected to TV it's pretty hard to go back to M&k controls, especially if you spend entire day in work with mouse and keyboard setup so... I'm enjoying (or yet plan to play) console, pad converted ports of PC games like Q3, Rune, Giants: Citizen Kabuto, Shadow of the Horned Rat / Dark Omen, Crusader: No Remorse, 3DO Wing Commander 3 and few others. Weird experience but still, pretty refreshing and sooo convenient.

I prefer pretty much any EGA Sierra game that they later "upgraded" to VGA. The look and feel of the EGA versions just seem better to me.

Any of the Zelda "remakes", from the 3DS ones to the recent Switch ones, look worse than the original games.

Robotron 64. It's a port of the PS1 Robotron and most people would agree it's the inferior product, but I just love it. It's probably my favorite N64 game.

Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town

It's the same as Back to Nature but 2D and with some improvements
