Games that marked time and are now in your pocket.

Video games understand less and less formats, and many have made the leap to mobile in recent years. Games that once marked an era on consoles and PCs, but can now be enjoyed directly on a tablet or smartphone. In this article we review 7 historical games that currently can be enjoyed anywhere from these devices and that accompany the last to join this fashion, neither more nor less than the legendary Castlevania Symphony of the Night that arrived this week by surprise to Android and iOS.

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night

There is no better game to start than the possibly best Castlevania of all time. It came by surprise to mobile phones a few days ago and does so with compatibility with controls, touch controls, renewed interface, state save function, Spanish language and unlockable achievements. It is for 3.49 euros.

Grand Theft Auto San Andreas

One of the most spectacular sandbox of all time and the most thug and dear to GTA fans. San Andreas is available on mobile devices with high resolution graphics, visual element enhancements such as dynamic shadows, compatible with controls, saved in the cloud to play on all iOS devices and three different control systems to adapt to the one that suits us best. It costs 7.99 euros.

Final Fantasy VII

Sonic CD

For many, and with permission from Sonic Mania, the best 2D Sonic game. This is the delivery that came out for Mega CD and that managed to combine all the good and powerful of the original trilogy for Mega Drive. The title comes with the possibility of saving game at any time, compatibility with controls and markers to compete with other players. Free game with integrated purchases.

Chrono Trigger

Without a doubt, one of the best JRPG of all time: Chrono Trigger, originally appeared in SNES and with other versions in PSX and Nintendo DS, is also available in smarpthones with improvements in graphics and sound, a renewed ATB system with battles in real time as in Final Fantasy and the extras of the DS version. It costs 10.99 euros.

Final Fantasy IX

We continue with the mythical Square Enix games, but the trio formed by the seventh installment of Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger and this IX can not be missing. It is a version with the characteristics of the other installments, HD graphics, ultra-fast or random game options, automatic saving, etc. Of course, excessively expensive: 22.99 euros.

Mega Man Legacy Bundle

Capcom is also making its first steps in mobile games, and we found an interesting Mega Man Legacy Bundle that for 10.99 (at least on iOS) brings with it the first six games of the series that originally appeared on NES. All the eight-bit Mega Man classics that are worth revisiting: something to note is that the gameplay and difficulty have been retouched to adapt to mobile phones.
