NES Favorite 4 NES Games

[Mirage]

Ok, the N64 thread was fun, so I decided to make one myself. This time pick your favorite 4 NES games.

Mine are (in order):

1. The Legend of Zelda
2. Super Mario Brothers 2
3. Super Mario Brothers
4. Super Mario Brothers 3

The funny thing is that the US version of Super Mario Brothers 2 isn't the same as the Japanese version. It's actually some other game with Mario characters tossed in at the last second because "The Lost Levels" (as they were called when released on the SNES) were too hard for US kids according to Japanese. I don't know the entire history behind it, but I just thought it was funny because my favorite NES Mario game isn't really even a true Mario game.

Mario 2 was my favorite Mario game too. It didn't make any sense, but it was so damned creative that it's just awesome.

Favorite NES games:

Double Dragon 2
Megaman 3
TMNT 2: The Arcade Game
Dodge Ball

[Wrecked]

The Legend Of Zelda
Bionic Commando
Punch-Out

Ah yes Basewars. Another good rental pickup I forgot. Can't believe I forgot that one. That was sweet. I remember all the excess graphics stuff they used to do with the homeruns. It's like they practically used the homeruns to throw a frikkin' parade and crap. Nutts! :shake:

More hard choices to make...

Mario 3
The Guardian Legend
Ninja Gaiden 3
Mario 1

In no specific order.

You can actually put up with the difficulty factor of Ninja Gaiden III and Gaurdian Legend enough to like them???

*bows down*

Ninja Gaiden 3 I actually find to be the easiest in the trilogy. I've memorized the game well enough so that I can pretty much fly right through it, and the action is just awesome.
Guardian Legend I don't find to be too difficult either. The flying levels are pretty tough, and every boss is quite a challenge, but I wouldn't say their difficulty levels are over-the-top or anything. And as long as you write your password down, you're always good to go again.
