Games you used to find great but no longer do

Nothing comes to my mind.

The games are still great, you just got older and boring that's all.

Becoming accustomed to better controls, improved gameplay, and other improvements made to video games in the past 20 years, has nothing to do with "getting boring." Some games just don't hold up like they used to when they were brand new.

Street Fighter II. With all the Turbo/Hyper/HD/whatever sequel-remakes we've gotten, the original feels clunky by comparison.

Not to mention all the new characters we've gotten in later games. Crimson Viper, Laura Matsuda, and Poison are my favorites overall.

Well that is a good thing, because the point of those updated versions was to improve the base game. World Warrior does indeed feel barren these days. There is a reason people prefer Super Turbo and Champion Edition when ti comes to online play.

Ultra IV, Third Strike and Alpha 3 are all pretty solid games, imo. Mid-air blocking and projectile shooting in A3 is a bit silly, tho.

I'm just going to leave this here. I got the cartridge with my first N64 console. I wussed out and sold this game not too long after I got it.

At least the original N64 owner thought that Superman 64 was a great game.
