What Are Some Old Games You Never Got To Play?

Sorry if this thread already exists. I figured it had to in this forum, but I did a search and went a few pages back and didn't see it.

-Castlevania 64 & Legacy of Darkness (N64) - Never did have an N64 back in the day. It's a system that I've been retroactively exploring, since I owned a PS1 then a Dreamcast back then. These are 2 games on the N64 that hasn't found their way to my collection yet. I've heard both great things, and bad things about the game so I'm curious to discover them on my own, since I'm a Castlevania fan.

-Chrono Cross (PS1) - Loved Chrono Trigger on SNES, never have played this sequel.

-The Elder Scrolls: Arena & Daggerfall (PC) - I didn't discover the Elder Scrolls games until I played Morrowind on XBox (original). I know they're free to download on Bethesda's website. And I have done so. But I can't get the dang things to run on Windows 8. I absolutely adore Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim. So I'd love to be able to experience the series' roots.

-Final Fantasy VI - It is in my collection, as I've recently acquired it via Final Fantasy Anthology and it is high on my backlog of games to play, so soon it shall be played.

-Magic Knight Rayearth (Saturn) - A fantastic looking shoot-em up that just looks stunning. I want to play it so bad, but the price is so high.

-Panzer Dragoon: Zwei (Saturn) - I love the first Panzer Dragoon game, and I enjoyed Panzer Dragoon: Orta even more. This is the only one in the main series I haven't played. And I've heard from many PD fans that it's the best entry in the series.

-Panzer Dragoon: Saga (Saturn) - I don't ever see myself playing this one as it's just too dang far out of my price range. I'll never pay $200 for a single video game. And I don't pirate games.

-Parasite Eve 2 (PS1) - Never did get this game when it was new, and now I just haven't come across it again.

-Star Soldier: Vanishing Earth (N64) - I'm a big shoot-em up fan, and I have been for a very long time. That love started with the original Star Soldier on NES. It was among the first games I got with my NES way back in 1989. This particular entry in the series I have never played. And a shoot-em up on the N64 at all is a rare thing. So I'm quite curious about this game.

-X-Men: Ravages of Apocalypse (PC) - An old PC game that uses the Quake engine that I remember seeing ads for in comics books that I've always wanted to try out.

Elder Scrolls (series) - I have IV, but it is a ways back in my to-do pile.

Myst (series) - A game that was really big in the 90s. But I never played it.

Grand Theft Auto (series) - I still have never played one. I do own a few now. I am wanting to pick up GTA3 before I start them though.

Mega Man X (series) - I was not a huge fan of the originals, so have never sought after the X games. However, they do look good.

Resident Evil (series) - I've played a demo. once. years ago. at 3 in the morning. a little inebriated... I don't think it counts.

I was having a lot of trouble getting Daggerfall to install til i found these downloads.  They basically do all the work for you and all you have to do is click the icon to play the game.

I didnt experience a lot of N64 games back in the day, but I only recently played Banjo Kazooie which is a little unfortunate simply because I doesnt hold up very well today.
Mega Man X as well, like "sin2beta" said Im also not a very big fan of the original series but I think I would really like them because I think a lot of NES orginals got so much better on the SNES
