Do you renember an nes game where you are a snall submarine shooting fish and playing for a high score. The game was super kool but i cant remember the name...
@@rendermanpro Thank you for t compliment Renderman Pro. It's funny when I planned out my YT channel back in 2009, and with its launch in 2010, that is exactly what I was trying to do, bring very high-quality video and audio to the table. At the time, people weren't really uploading super high-quality retro content, and I wanted to change that. I'm an Audio Engineer by trade, and with my background in radio, music, and performance, I wanted to just have fun with the retro games I grew up with and put a spin on their presentation. I know, I dove deep in this one, but what you said really was the exact concept I had when starting the channel, and I am happy to see you notice it. Thanks again man!
WHAT AN EXCELLENT LIST! Dude knows his games. I agree plus: Mega man 2, Ninja Gaiden, Metroid, Zelda 1, Bionic Commando, Mario 2, River City Ransom, Faxanadu, and Battle of Olympus. Sometimes I’d play a couple levels of Bubble Bobble too.
Dude river city ransom is the best. Probably my all time favorite game. Way better than double dragon. I think double dragon get so much love is because it had a arcade unit. Also faxanadu is awesome one of my favorites as well.
@@blg020 Myself, I didn't understand River City Ransom's super deformed art style at the time. I thought it looked retarded or at least a really amateur effort and didn't give the game a chance. Billy and Jimmy Lee on the other hand looked like a bunch of badasses and it was easy to immerse myself in the action. My loss. :|
I love Maniac Mansion. For the past 10 years or so, I make it a point to play through it once per year around Christmas time to reminisce the good old days of having Christmas vacation and playing it as a kid. It's somehow a Holiday tradition for me. Merry Christmas, Dave!
I was about to type out a “WTF” comment about some of the missing games, but then I realized that the beauty of the NES was that it has so many incredible games that every list was going to be subjective. This was refreshing to see. It featured a couple games I never tried and others I had long forgotten about. Well done!
First of all, it’s HIS top 20 not yours. Second, it’s good to see a different variety of games that someone else thinks are great instead of the same games over and over again.
Phil N LeBlanc Contrarianism for the sake of diversity is just dumb. There’s a reason Castlevania, Megaman, and Ninja Gaiden are still household names today compared to some of the obscure one-offs on his list.
Loved the inclusion of RC Pro Am, Batman and Battletoads. Not sure how a top 20 for Nintendo can miss titles from the Mega Man, Castlevania and Ninja Gaiden franchises, though...
Only 9 years late, but this is a great list. I loved that it's your favorite and not just another run of the mill list. You had me at 20, Super Sprint. I've never seen that make a list. Thanks for doing it your way.
THANK YOU, finally someone who with sees the list for what it is. Thank you for the comment, I appreciate it! What would my list be if I just picked the popular games everyone else liked? I mean, we all grew up differently, owned different games and not all the "popular" ones stuck out to me like other games did. I appreciate your comment Nah Meen! :)
If I could like this comment 1000 times I would! THANK YOU! You said it perfectly, these are MY favorite games, Id be happy to look at your other lists but damn people, relax!
G4M3R Z3R0 thanks for your comment too! From the very beginning I have always been about community, and appreciate everyone who comes through and has something real to say. Thanks for your words man! 🎙🔊🔊
Why is everybody forgetting about Faxanadu? That game had great graphics, sound, atmosphere, was very challenging und just a great fantasy game. I would prefer it even to the first final fantasy or zelda II.
Double Dragon 2 is in my top 3. I was never able to beat the game. The inside level is ridiculously hard and I never beat it to this day. I still love it.
I don`t know why your video popped up on my feed 11 years later, but holy cow!! Your editing, narration, and production were waaaaay beyond the curve. Good job!!
Fantastic list. Born in 80 myself, played almost all of these and I can confirm this is probably the best list for the console that I can get behind that I've seen just about anyone compile. Kudos. If I still managed an arcade I'd offer you a free round.
My Top 20: 20. Moon Crystal 19. Konami World 1 and 2 18. Goonies 17. Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers 1 and 2 16. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II and lll 15. Double Dragon ll 14. Kick Master 13. Castle Vania 12. Metalstorm 11. Spartan X 10. Road Fighter 09. Punch-Out! 08. Ninja Gaiden 1 to 3 07. Shatteredhand 06. Contra 05. Rush n Attack 04. Jackal 03. Battle City 02. Mega Man 1 to 6 01. Super Mario Bros. 3
Thanks for sharing your NES favorites. Mike Tyson's Punch-out, Excitebike, and SMB 3 are definitely in my top NES games list. Here are some that you didn't include in your list in which I wonder if you played. Super Spike V'Ball, Blades of Steel, Baseball Stars, Pro Wrestling, Tetris, Techmo Bowl, Techmo Super Bowl, Q'bert, Arkanoid, SMB 2, etc. These games are classic to me.
11 years after the release of this video I am hear to say, I agree with your number 1 pick. I am a 43 year old male and this games holds a special place in my heart. This was the first game I ever beat. I still to this day remember doing it and seeing the helicopter take off. What a game, and great video...it holds up 11 years later
Great list. Here are some of my favorite NES games missing on your list: 1. Super C 2. Mega Man VI 3. Ninja Gaiden 4. Balloon Fight 5. Darkwing Duck 6. Faxanadu 7. Battle of Olympus 8. Castlevania II: Simon's Quest 9. Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse 10. Lode Runner
@@afriend9428 a stinker which has a huge open world, a great atmosphere, good looking graphics for its time and Bloody Tears, one of the greatest game songs of all time.
Dude, thank you so much for bringing back R.C Pro-AM. That game a was so good and I forgot all about it! Micro Machines is a classic racer for NES as well. Punch-Out has to be on the list because it still holds up today!
I was having flashbacks to where that one car (I think it was the orange one) would all of a sudden gain super speed and just go flying by. You could hear it happening before it went by you. WHY???? I guess it was there to teach me that no matter how good you are at something, there's always somebody out there who's a million times better (credit to Homer Simpson for driving the point home a few years later).
Great list! Personally, I would give an honorable mention to these games: Cobra Triangle, Life Force, Flying Dragon: The secret scrolls, GI Joe 1 and 2, and definitely Metroid😎
Hell yeah bro!! Blaster Master, Batman, DuckTales, Micro Machines, R.C. Pro-Am, Tiger Hell, Excite Bike, TMNT2, Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out, Legend Of Zelda, Battletoads, Double Dragon 2, Kirby Adventure, and obviously the Super Mario games, and Contra, and a few others were totally awesome!!! Thank you!
I remember watching the movie called "the wizard" starring Fred Savage from The Wonder years. I remember watching the end of the movie when he found the magic flute on Super Mario Bros 3. I Remember running to my game console and playing that part it was awesome.
Awesome top 20 man! Not everyone talks about maniac mansion.. definitely a gem.. if I didn’t see final fantasy in your top 20 then I couldn’t take this seriously. Punch out should be in everyone’s top 10 easily..the Zelda’s will definitely unfold a gaming path for me that has always satisfied my gaming world. Smash TV was an absolutely epic game also.. would make my top 5
Easily the best list I ever seen because these were games you played as a kid dug the lack of love for Mario, Metroid, Zelda, and Castlevania. Those are emulator kid picks. Your list was all heart.
My List Castlevania Life force Contra Ninja gaiden Tmnt Mike Tyson Punch out Guerilla war Cabal Jackal Zelda Megaman 3 Metroid Black manta Double dragon 2 Kid Niki Ghost & Goblins Super Mario 3 Guardian Legend Blaster Master Kung Fu
Great video! Lots of agreement with your list: Duck Tales, Blaster Master, Jackal, Turtles II, MT Punch Out, Battletoads, Double Dragon II, Kirby's Adventure, Mario 3. My other ones would be Tecmo Super Bowl, Mega Man 2, RBI Baseball 2, Fantastic Adventures of Dizzy, Castlevania 1, The Guardian Legend, Ninja Gaiden 2, Bionic Commando, Little Nemo, G.I. Joe Real American Hero, Zelda 1.
I really appreciate this very different list. Thanks for showing off your favorites! Some of these I haven't seen before, which is new with all these top 10s. 🙂
I enjoy this list. It's not just a cookie cutter list that has been recycled a thousand times over. While I enjoyed most of the games on your list, my list is completely different, and that's okay.
I wanted to get on here and personally thank you for your kind comment about my list here. Everybody seems to think that all top NES games lists should be the same. I am simply showcasing my own personal favorites. We all grew up differently, played different games, and gravitated toward different games. Having a diverse opinion is what makes these lists so awesome! I appreciate you being open minded and accepting of others opinions and tastes. I wish more people in the comment section had your mentality.
Much respect to you for this list 💯 personally, I don't see any racing titles making it into my top 20, or top 30 even, but definitely into top 40. This list was solid and honestly a refreshing perspective that differs from the usual suspects of top lists.
Gotta love how people complain like HEY WHY ISN’T MY GAME ON THE LIST well to tell you the truth it’s the Unloaders List not yours if you don’t like his list and think it’s completely lame why don’t you make your own I for one love how you put My in the title not many people do that
Mike Tyson's Punch-Out, Faxanadu, Super Tecmo Bowl, Bionic Commando, Contra, Double Dragon, and Ninja Gaiden. I believe these might be my top games of NES. Also liked #karate#kid #kung#fu #Commando #Rambo #Zelda #Metroid I could go on and on..
Faxanadu was GREAT. Maybe unknown by the big public, but beautiful art and gameplay. One weird stuff about it: You could not duck. One cool stuff about it: You actually changed your weapons, armor and helmet, not just in power, cosmetically. Another game of the same kind was Battle of Olympus. Big game, longer than Faxanadu and pretty graphics too., if you were interested.
I second Battle of Olympus. Great game. I also enjoyed Crystalis. Never seem to see that one on these lists either, but I wasted a lot of my childhood playing it. haha.
I really enjoyed this list! I like that you didn't go with the usual crowd pleasers i.e. mega man, castlevania, ninja gaiden, etc... I think I counted 13 games that I have on your list and there's definitely some titles on here I want to pick up
Very good top 20 list and my top 20 list is: 20- Rygar, 19 Mike Tyson Punch Out, 18- Double Drible, 17-Rad racer 2, 16-Life Force, 15- Startropics, 14-Burray fitgher, 13- Shadow of the Ninja, 12- Roller Games, 11-TMN turtles 3, 10-Batman, 9-Mega man 3, 8-Super C, 7-Jackal, 6-Super Mario Bros 3, 5-Ninja Gaiden, 4-Mega man 2, 3-Double Dragon 2, 2-Castlevania 3, 1-Contra
I thought the laser gun in Contra was much more useful than the circular fire ball gun. Laser could take out anything requiring multiple hits faster than any other gun, especially the final enemy. The circular fire ball gun thing was annoying. Also, no love for Tecmo Super bowl? Given you don't have a lot of sports games in your list (minus racing games and punch out), I assume you weren't big into them. TSB was the cream of the crop in that genre.
+brillopad6901 I loved the music,, true it was scary but it was awesome.. I think that one of eminem's songs has a loop on one of his beats.. I believe the song is role model..
It was a port from PC, and not a very good one. Still I loved it when I was young even if I had it in French. ("ne passe rien, ne passe rien"). In fact, I bought the new version for PC in Steam and it is harder than the NES version. :)
Dope list. Mine is similar. Top 5 only in no particular order: Contra, Double Dragon 2, Tyson's Punch Out, Legend of Zelda(remember the gold cartridge) and Mario 3.....Double Dragon 2 has to be my all time fav. Fun fact, if you select 2 players where the brothers are able to hit each other, you can still your brothers lives giving you like 6 lifes I believe. Haven't played in years. Enjoy
People have different experiences. Did you ever play Genghis Khan? One of the best games out there and it was on the nes. I'll assume that 80 percent of the people here have never played it. I didn't play MegaMan until much later in life. We just grow up with different experiences.
A good choice for #1 but nevertheless... 20-10 What is this? Top 20 obscure NES games??? From 9 to 4 I was like OK but then... HOW THE F*CK did you not have a single Megaman game,a single Ninja Gaiden game or a single Castlevania game!!! BRUH!!!
I know this comment is coming late, but a couple of things... first, nice personal list. It reflects your taste nicely, and that's fun to see. Second, I'm pretty sure the whole microwaving the hamster only working on certain copies thing is a myth. It's not certain copies, but rather only certain characters that will do it. Bernard and Wendy definitely won't, Razor definitely will, and so on. Also, in Punch Out!, it's the Start button to do a star punch.
Metroid, The Adventures Of Lolo. Wrecking Crew. Rad Racer. River City Ransom. Ninja Gaiden. Bomberman. Skate Or Die. Castlevania 2. Fester's Quest. Ghosts And Goblins. Goonies 2. Kid Icarus. Metal Gear. Solar Jetman. Milon's Secret Castle. Legacy Of The Wizard. Tetris. Mega Man 2. Bionic Commando. The Legend Of Zelda. Pro Wrestling. A Boy And His Blob. So, I basically made you have to do a top 60 list, LOL.

MANIAC MANSION. LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDDD THAT GAME.!!!
Great thumbnail
Maybe its because Im Canadian, but I always loved Blades of Steel!...lol
Yeah.. Blades of steel rocked..
One of the best NES games
Brad Kerr that game was great and im from the DC Maryland area
That was a great game :) My first ever hockey game :)
Im american , never played ice hockey and it was one of my fav games
good to see a personal list as apposed to the usual crowd pleasers.
Thanks, I appreciate that! I always go with what I liked, that's the beauty of top 10 lists! I hate seeing community voted ones.
True. I gotta check out metalstorm. Looks sweet.

What are your top 3 nes games?
Ninja Gaiden ? Megaman ? Castlevania ?
Dude... You hit the nail on the head!
First of all, it’s HIS top 20 not yours. Second, it’s good to see a different variety of games that someone else thinks are great instead of the same games over and over again.
Phil N LeBlanc Contrarianism for the sake of diversity is just dumb. There’s a reason Castlevania, Megaman, and Ninja Gaiden are still household names today compared to some of the obscure one-offs on his list.
Raul Valenzuela Right!
Ninja Gaiden is high on my list, but that game is hard. I probably died more times in that game than any other, but I still love it.
I beat Simon's quest as a kid and it's still my proudest accomplishment in gaming history.that game was unbelievable hard
It's also impossible to beat without some sort of magazine or guide
Loved the inclusion of RC Pro Am, Batman and Battletoads. Not sure how a top 20 for Nintendo can miss titles from the Mega Man, Castlevania and Ninja Gaiden franchises, though...
Let´s not forget Metroid
Only 9 years late, but this is a great list. I loved that it's your favorite and not just another run of the mill list. You had me at 20, Super Sprint. I've never seen that make a list. Thanks for doing it your way.

No River City Ransom? It's NES first Beat'em Up/RPG.
Sumfood4u one of my favs
Hell yeah my favorite
river city random ... you sir are a true bad ass... also one of my favs and its never really mentioned
Hell yeah!!
My favorite game on NES!!!
Why is everybody forgetting about Faxanadu? That game had great graphics, sound, atmosphere, was very challenging und just a great fantasy game. I would prefer it even to the first final fantasy or zelda II.
Loved Faxanadu.
I had a LOT more fun with Faxanadu than I did with Zelda 2.
Faxanadu #1
maybe it was too short, but it was still a fun game :>
Faxanadu #1
Super Mario 3 .... so much fun when it came out. I remember the movie the Wizard made us all want it so bad.
Brian's Man Cave - The Wizard.. a movie of legends. Every kids nostalgia and dream. Mario 3?! The Power Glove?! "Go for the whistle!"
I've always liked SMB2 way more than I ever cared for 3. It's a much better game that's never gotten the appreciation it deserves.
Could not agree more
*The Power Glove was so bad it was awful! LOL* 😂
@@Xuevium I wanted the power glove but it was too much money and holidays were too far away!
Double Dragon 2 is in my top 3. I was never able to beat the game. The inside level is ridiculously hard and I never beat it to this day. I still love it.
Yeah, Double Dragon II was really tough. The kid next door had that one and used to carry me through it on coop. Great memories, fantastic game!
I don`t know why your video popped up on my feed 11 years later, but holy cow!! Your editing, narration, and production were waaaaay beyond the curve. Good job!!
I had tears in my eyes watching this great list as I used to play these games with my brother as a kid. those were best times
Yes it was
I feel ya bro. I appreciate your comment. I remember playing with my brothers I would punch them in the shoulder if they beat me! Lol
Those were some of the best times of my childhood thanks for the memories ! ✌️😎👻
Nice list! Great memories! Mega man 2 and 3 and Tecmo Bowl were some of my favorites!
T~ecmo. Super bowl
Fantastic list. Born in 80 myself, played almost all of these and I can confirm this is probably the best list for the console that I can get behind that I've seen just about anyone compile. Kudos. If I still managed an arcade I'd offer you a free round.
That Batman game was the truth! Those graphics for an 8 bit system at that time were incredible. The game was really good too!
Not a single Mega Man game? :O
Crime against humanity not including any Mega Man games. Mega Man 2 or 3 at least. Good God.
Agreed
Perhaps he’s never played one. Hard to vote a game a favorite if you’ve never tried it.

Shatterhand 🤘
Thanks for sharing your NES favorites. Mike Tyson's Punch-out, Excitebike, and SMB 3 are definitely in my top NES games list. Here are some that you didn't include in your list in which I wonder if you played. Super Spike V'Ball, Blades of Steel, Baseball Stars, Pro Wrestling, Tetris, Techmo Bowl, Techmo Super Bowl, Q'bert, Arkanoid, SMB 2, etc. These games are classic to me.
Super Spike Volleyball...holy hell i cant velieve anyone remembers that
My step Dad and I played the hell out of super spike volleyball, and a few other titles. The NES library never disappoints!
Cave Man Games
11 years after the release of this video I am hear to say, I agree with your number 1 pick. I am a 43 year old male and this games holds a special place in my heart. This was the first game I ever beat. I still to this day remember doing it and seeing the helicopter take off. What a game, and great video...it holds up 11 years later
Great list. Here are some of my favorite NES games missing on your list:
1. Super C

5. Darkwing Duck
6. Faxanadu
7. Battle of Olympus
8. Castlevania II: Simon's Quest

*Simon’s Quest is a stinker!* 👎
@@afriend9428 a stinker which has a huge open world, a great atmosphere, good looking graphics for its time and Bloody Tears, one of the greatest game songs of all time.
I think Megaman 2 deserved to be on the list.
If there was only 1 mega man to put on the list, number 2 is it for sure!
MrElchicky09 the first 3 megaman games deserve a spot
Literally any other Mega Man that isn't 2 deserves it.
Dang, that Excite Bike winning theme...chills and memories, man, chills and memories :)
+ExcalibursZone without a doubt man! Without a doubt! Great memories!
:) creepy smile?
No (insert my opinion of game) WTF
The first legend of zelda is my number 1 by far..
I’d switch Super Mario 3 with Contra and put Ninja Gaiden at 1 but this list is right up there with everything I love about being a kid! Thanks man!!
Ducktales is the BOMB! That was one of my favorite games as a child! Wow!
my childhood 😭😭😭😭 i miss them all
Dude, thank you so much for bringing back R.C Pro-AM. That game a was so good and I forgot all about it! Micro Machines is a classic racer for NES as well. Punch-Out has to be on the list because it still holds up today!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Rc pro am and micro machines are definitely underrated.

Great list, this vid takes me back to some great times as a youth!

Yeah it’s different alright…
No Castlevania? really dude? 0.0
Noside Foxhound absolutely. Castlevania has to be in the top ten atleast.
This is his top games, so i think this just his opinion kids
you obviously can’t read a title.
No Castlevania, Mega man 2, Metroid, Zelda 1
It's his top 20. In my top 20 there would def be Castlevania.
Damn this put me in my feels. What a great time in gaming. A great time period. So much simpler back then.
So true Wesley, so true. I love going back to this time and reliving those great memories too. Thanks for watching!

Much respect to you for this list 💯 personally, I don't see any racing titles making it into my top 20, or top 30 even, but definitely into top 40. This list was solid and honestly a refreshing perspective that differs from the usual suspects of top lists.
Gotta love how people complain like HEY WHY ISN’T MY GAME ON THE LIST well to tell you the truth it’s the Unloaders List not yours if you don’t like his list and think it’s completely lame why don’t you make your own
I for one love how you put My in the title not many people do that
My personal favorite was always Little Nemo: The Dream Master
Surprisingly fun game 🙂
Lifeforce was pretty dope too.
Still my favorite shooter of all time.
Omg! I can't forget contra series. It's really a superb game for a good time pass. Thanks for sharing us your old memories.
Great list! I have Castlevania, Tecmo Bowl, and Kung Fu in my top 10.
EXCELLENT Choice for your #1!!!
Did you forget ninja gaiden?
Don't know if I would describe the setting in Contra as urban.
+Movie Games Well, you better figure out if you would or not, sounds like you have some decisions to make...
Movie Games sounds Racist. Exactly!
5 on your list--too overrated. Would never make my list. All else is cool.
Your narration makes me super excited to play these again!
Glad to hear it!
Mike Tyson's Punch-Out, Faxanadu, Super Tecmo Bowl, Bionic Commando, Contra, Double Dragon, and Ninja Gaiden. I believe these might be my top games of NES. Also liked #karate#kid #kung#fu #Commando #Rambo #Zelda #Metroid I could go on and on..
no Kung Fu? That is a great Game!
I still play that :)
💯
Love that game
I just ask that or blades of steel
I couldn't agree more about having Contra in your #1 spot. It is simply a perfect game in my opinion.
has nobody played faxanadu or do people just not think it's good?
I like that game but it's never on these lists.
It's in my top 20, love that game. It's one of those under rated games that nobody talks about.
Faxanadu was GREAT. Maybe unknown by the big public, but beautiful art and gameplay. One weird stuff about it: You could not duck. One cool stuff about it: You actually changed your weapons, armor and helmet, not just in power, cosmetically.
Another game of the same kind was Battle of Olympus. Big game, longer than Faxanadu and pretty graphics too., if you were interested.
Gerardo Uribe
Thanks, I'll check it out
I second Battle of Olympus. Great game. I also enjoyed Crystalis. Never seem to see that one on these lists either, but I wasted a lot of my childhood playing it. haha.
@@facepalmdaily4404 time spent playing Crystalis is not time wasted.
I really enjoyed this list! I like that you didn't go with the usual crowd pleasers i.e. mega man, castlevania, ninja gaiden, etc... I think I counted 13 games that I have on your list and there's definitely some titles on here I want to pick up
No Megaman 2? No Metroid? No Ninja Gaiden? No Bionic Commando?
So! Much! Nostalgia! But no Mega Man 2 or Ninja Gaiden 2?
Not on this list, both amazing games tho!
Metroid was my favorite
crystalis
Just played it again recently.
Lovely game
WHAT?? Metal Storm getting some LOVE on one of these lists?? THANK YOU! Great sleeper on the system! Had it when it came out.
You bet!
Very good top 20 list and my top 20 list is: 20- Rygar, 19 Mike Tyson Punch Out, 18- Double Drible, 17-Rad racer 2, 16-Life Force, 15- Startropics, 14-Burray fitgher, 13- Shadow of the Ninja, 12- Roller Games, 11-TMN turtles 3, 10-Batman, 9-Mega man 3, 8-Super C, 7-Jackal, 6-Super Mario Bros 3, 5-Ninja Gaiden, 4-Mega man 2, 3-Double Dragon 2, 2-Castlevania 3, 1-Contra
My fav will always be "little Nemo dream master"
Ze Atheist Yessssss!!!!!
No Megaman? No Castlevania?
Title: MY Top 20....
TH-camrs: What!? How could you forget blah blah...?
Me: Sigh...
What's the point of sharing with other people if they can't comment on what they disagree or agree with?
For me, it will always be Double Dragon 2, Contra, and Super Mario Bros. 3. Cheers to a great video, and keep up the great work!
Right on with your list man!!! You really love games like I do and did. I'm so happy for your success. Great job and keep gaming
''Select" button for power punch in Tyson's Punch-Out!! ? It's 'Start". Did you just list a bunch of titles you've heard of?
lol
Crap. Should of read these before I posted my message. Good call Joe
I thought the laser gun in Contra was much more useful than the circular fire ball gun. Laser could take out anything requiring multiple hits faster than any other gun, especially the final enemy. The circular fire ball gun thing was annoying.
Also, no love for Tecmo Super bowl? Given you don't have a lot of sports games in your list (minus racing games and punch out), I assume you weren't big into them. TSB was the cream of the crop in that genre.
The laser is the most effective if you're good at aiming.
i like the spreader the best!not as effective as the laser...but covers all areas when shooting enemies.
no mega man?
+Matthew Riley Not for me, nope.
HeineHouseEntertainment well fuck U then
Meow Meowsers
Nor Tecmo Bowl...No BattleToads..Double Dragon..Kung Fu
Well, the title is " *My* Top 20...", not "Most People's Top 20..."
poisoncurls mega man is definitely top 5 in my book
Only issue with BLASTER MASTER was the respawn of destroyed blocks reappearing after you blasted them.
Great list. I'd need to throw in Track & Field, Blades of Steel, Metal Gear, OG Zelda, Rygar, Bionic Commander, Castlevania, Strider, and Casino Kid!
bionic commando
River City Ransom?
What about shadow gate??..
Love that game, the music used to scare me as a kid. Lol
+brillopad6901 I loved the music,, true it was scary but it was awesome.. I think that one of eminem's songs has a loop on one of his beats.. I believe the song is role model..
I know, I still play it all the time. I can go through it in no time because I have it memorized.
It was a port from PC, and not a very good one. Still I loved it when I was young even if I had it in French. ("ne passe rien, ne passe rien"). In fact, I bought the new version for PC in Steam and it is harder than the NES version. :)
Number 1.... my favorite game of all time. The best game ever.
Up up down down left left right right A B select start
Left right left right
Dope list. Mine is similar. Top 5 only in no particular order: Contra, Double Dragon 2, Tyson's Punch Out, Legend of Zelda(remember the gold cartridge) and Mario 3.....Double Dragon 2 has to be my all time fav. Fun fact, if you select 2 players where the brothers are able to hit each other, you can still your brothers lives giving you like 6 lifes I believe. Haven't played in years. Enjoy
NO MEGAMAN ARE YOU KIDDING
or ninja gaiden
Easypickens82 Personally, the only mega man I enjoyed was mega man 2
because it was really easy xD just finish quick man and you basicly was ready to go
People have different experiences. Did you ever play Genghis Khan? One of the best games out there and it was on the nes. I'll assume that 80 percent of the people here have never played it. I didn't play MegaMan until much later in life. We just grow up with different experiences.
no ninja gaiden , castlevania , megaman ? They are classic for all gamers ?
A good choice for #1 but nevertheless... 20-10 What is this? Top 20 obscure NES games??? From 9 to 4 I was like OK but then... HOW THE F*CK did you not have a single Megaman game,a single Ninja Gaiden game or a single Castlevania game!!! BRUH!!!
his opinion
I'm amazed at how much our lists overlap! Great job IMO!
I know this comment is coming late, but a couple of things... first, nice personal list. It reflects your taste nicely, and that's fun to see. Second, I'm pretty sure the whole microwaving the hamster only working on certain copies thing is a myth. It's not certain copies, but rather only certain characters that will do it. Bernard and Wendy definitely won't, Razor definitely will, and so on. Also, in Punch Out!, it's the Start button to do a star punch.
I'm surprised there wasn't any ninja gaiden
yeah, IKR i know right
Ya because it's sooooooo much fun everytime you turn around evoking more and more enemies to reappear infinitely.
up up, down down, left right, left right, B A
Killer Game Shit select, start 😉
30 lives!
no megaman?
Wow, a blast from the past. So many of your games I absolutely loved as a kid..
