Not only the nostalgic, but also the younger ones should play these old classics, now available on iPhone and Android smartphones, in their original version that could be played in the games room. In this collection of games for Android, iPhone and iPad, we see some of the best "vintage" games, the most played between the late 90s and early 2000s, precursors of modern 3D console games. On an iPhone these games perform well, are extremely fun and can bring old players back to the glories of a decade ago, and new players to find worthy alternatives to Angry Birds and Fruit Ninja. Unfortunately they are all paid games, which cost between 2 and 4 Euros each (the Apple Store is known to be quite stingy).

1) Street Fighter is available in the Street Fighter 4 version for Android and for iPhone.
Capcom's Street Fighter 2 has been the most popular fighting game in the world, with Ryu, Ken, Chun Li and Guile ready to hit the road with Kung Fu, Karate and other martial arts.
2) Lemmings (for Android) is the game where you have to bring the little animals to safety that go on and must be brought into the den without letting them fall into the abyss, using their skills such as harpoons, jumps and so on. Lemmings was a great classic on old consoles and on Amiga.
3) Final Fantasy for iPhone and Android is the original version which was originally released in 1987 and represented the standard for fantasy-style RPGs. The cost is decidedly high, but fans of the series will surely be able to return to having fun on the iPhone or iPad, both in the first version and in the second and third (which costs 13 Euros!)
4) Duke Nukem 3D, shooter game from 1996, is free for iPhone and iPad in its original version of the time.
5) Mega Man X (4 Euro) was originally a 1994 SNES game. The iPhone version is the same, with levels to overcome in which the MegaMan must jump and shoot against enemies. One of the best action platforms of those times is still an example of how videogames should be.
6) The Secret of Monkey Island (no longer available) was the first real level graphic adventure. Those who have played it in the past can have fun repeating the experience and trying to remember the riddles; those who have never played it, can take advantage of the iPhone version, perfect, fun, humorous, in Italian and engaging like few others. If you don't believe me, you can read the comments on the iTunes page.
7) Sonic the Hedgehog, the first version of the Sega game, is available for iPhone and Android, for free.
You can also download Sonic 4 at a cost of 4 Euros, as fast as that of the console.
8) X-men (no longer) is another side-scrolling barrel and fighting game, where you have to walk from right to left and beat all the enemies hard. You can choose your favorite mutant from the famous X-Men comic / film.

10) Doom Classic (4 Euro) is the shooter par excellence, a game that everyone should know, even today one of the best first-person FPS that is brought back to the glories of the past by this excellent version for iPhone and iPad.
10 BIS: For Android, you can download FreeDoom for free, an unofficial remake.
11) Plants vs. Zombies is free for Android iPhone and for iPhone.
This game was originally a PC-only game, but it was on the iPhone, thanks to the playability offered by the touchscreen, which has become one of the most popular and most played in the world.
12) Worms (2.40 Euros) is that turn-based game where you shoot once and for all, whoever lives at least with a soldier wins.
In addition to the type of game, original at the time of its release, the success also derived from the nice graphics of the worms capable of shooting with very powerful weapons.
If you like it, there is also Worms 2 for the same price.
13) Another World (4 Euro) is a title of 91, an incredible game for the time that is still capable of giving emotions in the original version adapted for iPhone.
14) Ghosts'N Goblins (for iPhone and for Android) is the story of the arcades, one of those where there was a queue to play. The iPhone version is not the original one, it has renewed graphics and different levels.
15) Pac Man for iPhone, free, is an immortal title, it is the most classic of the classics, the most famous arcade game, always fun.
Pacman can also be played on Android smartphones.
