In no particular order, list your top ten NES games. Even if you don't have room for all of your favorites, it'll be alright. I don't for mine.

1. Super Mario Bros. 3

Without question, one of the games I lost entirely too much of my life to when I was a kid. Beating this game isn't a grand stroke of gaming by any means, but it certainly is one everyone should attempt to conquer. Tip: Don't be a wuss, whistles are for noobs.

2. Vice: Project Doom.

Don't let the box art fool you, this game is seriously awesome. Almost a mix between Spy Hunter, Ninja Gaiden, and the Punisher, this game had it all. Awesome shooter levels when you are speeding your car through the mean streets, or platforming beat-em-up action with a variety of weapons at your disposal. If you haven't played it yet, do so.

3. Ice Hockey

Fuck yeah, Ice Hockey!

4. Star Tropics

This is a perfect blend of old school RPGs like Dragon Warrior, with great Dungeon crawling almost like Zelda, except you can jump, sucka! That's right, you can jump! It also has a save feature, making it much easier to play on your own time. No passwords, or holding the reset button down when you turn it off! Ah, convenience!

5. Ninja Gaiden

I will never, ever beat Ninja Gaiden. I still play it to this day. It is one of the funnest games I will never be able to say I legitimately beat. Every time I pop in in, I play almost an hour longer than I expected, and I'm pretty sure my hair has grayed ever so slightly.

6. Kirby's Adventure

Holy shit. This game. You can do so much in this game. I only played it for the first time last year when I scored a cart at my local Fun-Trade for 8 bucks. This is plat-forming gold, people. It also has a save feature, gotta love it!

7. Lifeforce

You will die. A lot. You will get better or continue to die. Your power-ups will be awesome. Until you die.
And die. And die.

8. Mike Tyson's Punch Out!

This game. This fucking game.

9. Dragon Warrior

Though other games, including the sequels, would go on to champion the genre even more so, this game is what started RPG playing for me. Ultima came before, Final Fantasy came after, but in my life, this game came first. So it will always stand out.

10. Pro Wrestling

This isn't one I can play as adult, but as a kid, it was freaking awesome. I got dibs on Starman![/SPOILER]

I also didn't mention Mega-Man, but it should be mentioned. The second one.

Bumping this because its a cool topic and really should have more members contributing to this.


Zombie Nation
Micro Machines
Kung Fu

Kung Fu was my first love in video gaming before I was introduced to Mario. My mate had that game and I begged my parents to buy me a Nes. Such great memories. Old Skool gaming kicks ass over current gen stuff IMO.

Zombie Nation is more of a novelty game, IMO. Though it definitely stands out.

edit: C'mon, people!
