Back to the glory days.

I've been thinking lately (stand clear gentlemen) and something I've really been enjoying, slightly more so than playing the 360 or PS3, is playing my old 64 or the SNES games I once cherished.  Not that I'm as smug to think that the gaming in my growing up years was better in anyway then what we have now, but they are a combination of nostalgia and key fundamentals current franchises get their gameplay mechanics from.  So as someone who considers themselves a gamer of the early 90's, I enjoy slaving over the titles that pre-occupied many a school night of my childhood.
 
The only problem is, I don't feel constructive in the least as I'm droning through these titles.  With today's achievement points or trophies or in game challenges, just simply playing through Mega Man X doesn't cut it.  Sure I could go through on an X-buster only run as a self made challenge, but what I've had in mind is more of setting up something for you guys to participate in.
 
To cut to the quick, I want to record a run through of a SNES game for my blog, complete with commentary, but I'd like to have suggestions of what you'd be interested in seeing and how you'd like to see it done.  I plan on uploading my progress to Youtube in 10 minute segments, so take that into consideration, as well as how often you'd like to see a new segment added and what the name of the series could be.
 
Hopefully, my computer will up for this task, but if not, I'm expecting a new computer (for school) shortly, which would be more than up to standard for my plans.
 
My overall goal is to invoke nostalgia and maybe spark interest in an earlier form of gaming to kiddies from a later generation.
 
Thoughts and feedback are appreciated.
