I got an NES

[CanadianChris 0]

I found Baseball Stars to be the best of the NES baseball games, if you could ignore that awful music that looped throughout the game.

 

Great, now it's in my head. Shoot me.

[AndrewTS 0]

I was considering that one--my EB has it.

[Anya 0]

Guerrila War!

 

 

Yes!

 

 

Master System has Mortal Kombat 1-3. Weak versions, but still.....

[krease 0]

Micro Machines (we played this game intense~!-ly)

Final Fantasy 1 & 2 (for the sentimental value)

Dr. Mario (it's amazing when you see someone in level 16 beat someone in level 4)

Adventures of Dizzy (It was on one of those '4 in 1' cartridges with 'Boomerang Kid' and some other crap)

Lolo (a puzzle game)

Ice Hockey (the one with the fat guy, medium guy, and skinny guy)

Battletoads (ok, this was just fun)

Star Tropics (another fav)

Who Framed Roger Rabbit (my first non-Mario game - actually pretty good)

[Angelus 0]

You just need three games : Mike Tyson's Punch Out ( Greatest game EVER ), Gunsmoke ( How no one mentionned it ? ) and The Goonies II

Did Gunsmoke even come out on Nintendo?

[Hoff 0]

I'd have to recommend Yo, Noid! Simply a stunning game that also taught us a valuable lesson: that Domino's Pizza rocks.

 

[Angelus 0]

Did Gunsmoke even come out on Nintendo?

 

Yes, in fact i think it was only on nintendo

[Scroby 0]

Did Gunsmoke even come out on Nintendo?

Gunsmoke was only for the arcade, NES, and Famicom Disk System, AFAIK.

 

And I forgot about River City Ransom, thanks.

A Boy and His Blob.

[Fökai 0]

Battletoads

Baseball Stars II

Tecmo Super Bowl

Mike Tyson's Punch-Out

King of the Beach

Mario II and III

Jackal

That's the comprehensive list (aka "games I played the hell out of").

[Masked Man of Mystery 0]

Duck Tales 1&2(1 is better), Darkwing Duck, Chip 'N Dale's Rescue Rangers(there's apparently a second one but it's probably rare as heck), Kirby's Adventure, the Marios, and the Castlevanias, I'd say

[Hoff 0]

YO NOID

[Big Ol' Smitty 0]

Pirates!

and I second Dragon Warrior IV

Contra Force (obscure sequel) is fun

I will reiterate the recommendation for Star Tropics.

 

Also:

Little Nemo

and

Willow

[The Man in Blak 0]

I don't know if it's already been said, but Base Wars, man.

[Scroby 0]

I will reiterate the recommendation for Star Tropics

 

Update: Andrew now has Star Tropics....its just at my house. But he has it!

Castlevania 3 finally came in the mail. It isn't as brutally hard as CV1 could get to be, IMO, plus the control is much better than it was on the emulator I was using.

 

I came close to beating Alucard on my last life, but then I died so I just scribbled down my password to try later.

[Black Lushus 0]

Castlevania 3's hardest level, IMO is when you have to scale the side of the castle on those blocks that fall in a pattern...after you finally get to the top, you have to traverse tons of stairs the whole time being attacked by those fucking birds we all love that fly at angles that make them hard to hit, since you can't jump and all while on the stairs...then when you reach the top, you have to fight 3 bosses (twin mummies, the charging cyclops with the big hammer and one other)...of course, there's no health pickup at all on the way up there...this is after you get Alucard, Andrew, if you haven't gotten there yet, closer to the end...

I want one. February paycheck when I've shored up a bit more cash (since student loan payback, games, and Christmas gifts are killing me now), I swear.

Does indeed suck. The mummies wouldn't be so bad if they didn't CONSTANTLY FREAKIN' RESPAWN!!

 

My problems with my front-loader seem to be temporarily resolved...with a small plastic bottle (used to have that disc polishing junk in it) jammed in so that my cartridge is held down in my NES.

 

I at first thought it was dust, but I opened the NES and it's clean as a whistle. I mean, it's remarkable-looking considering it could be anywhere from 15-20 years old.
