If you could only ever play games from one decade (any 10 year span of time) again, which would it be? and by that I mean pick your favorite, if you've already played a set of games to death you can choose to selectively wipe your memory of them so you can enjoy them for the first time again
For me, it's 1994-2004. You get the tail end of great SNES games like EarthBound, Chrono Trigger, Live A Live and it goes all the way up to masterpieces like MGS3 and Katamari Damacy. 2001-2011 was also phenomenal especially for handheld games (so many of the best games of all time between GBA and DS, such as Battle Network 2, Aria of Sorrow, TWEWY and Ghost Trick), that's a close second for me.
2001-20011 as well. So many great games came out in that time span.

>no ports At all or are there certain parameters like collections and rereleases/reprints being allowed?
Kevin Ortiz
1997-2007, though I will be missing out on Phantasy Star IV.
Jonathan Baker
Ports and collections would make it too easy because basically all Vidya has been rereleased in some way in the past decade either as an HD collection, mobile port, Steam port, Virtual Console, etc.
Ayden Reed
What about reprints like Nintendo Selects though?
Brandon Smith
Nope, doesn't count. Original release date only. It's not meant to be an easy pick
Jackson Taylor
I understand, just making sure. In that case, probably 97-07 to get as many essential games as possible.

2007-2017 Breath of the Wild, Minecraft, Fallout NV, Skyrim, WoW TBC, Mario Odyssey, Undertale. tons of great Indies. I've got a very vanilla taste in games
William Anderson
Look at that, was sort of right.

Gonna ditto 1994-2004, 1998 and 2004 alone are enough for me.
Evan Gray
00-10. Most of the overused mechanics you see now come from that era. There are tons of accessible games of different types. Kinda a no brainer
