What would you consider to be the top 10 Must Play NES Titles
 

Alright, got a favor to ask of you gents. Due to limited access to the internet up until I was around 16 years old and due to low access to video game stores I had very little in the way of games and didn't know which games were big news I just grabbed it off a corner store shelf and played it for the three days you could rent them and either get them again or never rent them again if they sucked.

However, the selection was rather small and I doubt we got any of the big name titles.

So help me out here, which games were the must haves and which would you say are the top ten must play.

I intend to get an emulator and trying these out.

A lot more than 10, but it's the best, most comprehensive list of must play games for the nes that I've ever seen.

Though I'd take out the Mario Bros. games, since you can play the graphically superior all star versions on SNES.

In no particular order: Marble Madness, the first three mario bros game, Duck Hunt, TMNT, mega Man 2, Castlevania

Tecmo Super Bowl Football is the best football game ever.

oh man

i gotta go with

like

EXODUS ULTIMA

and

WAYNE'S WORLD
MCKIDS
ZOMBIE NATION

and also

SIDE POCKET

Bill and Teds excellent adveneture is fantastic. That along with Dick Tracy are the two "must play" licensed games out there.

River City Ransom

Super Mario, Super Mario 3 & Duck Hunt should easily fall into most Top 10's

Your getting a rep point just for remembering this game. I miss it so :(

Since he's just looking for the experience, does it matter?

Especially if he's emulating them?

LOVE Dick Tracy.

Or Tracy's Dick.

Action 52, it's 52 games on one cart, how can you go wrong?

That 'game' was shit. 52 types of it.

In no order:

Rescue
Chip & Dale the Game
Zelda II
Castlevania Simon's Quest (2 or 3, I forget)
Friday the 13th the Game
Mega Man (2 or 3, have a ball)
Contra
Any Final Fantasy

DuckTales
Chip and Dale's Rescue Rangers
Ninja Gaiden
Final Fantasy I
Jackal
Punch-Out
Bad Dudes
StarTropics
Adventures of LoLo
Kings Quest V

There was also a Chip & Dale's Rescue Rangers 2, that plays just like the first, but has somehow slipped completely under the radar for years now.

Definitely worth a look if you like the first one.

Tecmo Super Bowl
River City Ransom
Super Mario Bros. 3
RBI Baseball
Mega Man 2
Contra
Punch-Out!
Who Framed Roger Rabbit?
Fester's Quest
Bionic Commando

RBI Baseball 2 was MUCH better than RBI Baseball 1.

No way. RBI Baseball 1 was the best baseball game ever that's not baseball stars.

Legend of Zelda
Super Mario Bros 3
Ninja Gaiden 2
Double Dragon II
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II
Castlevania I or III
Super C
Mega Man 2 or 3
Tecmo Bowl
Punch-Out

Mega Man 2
Duck Tales
Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers
Super Mario Bros 3
Super Mario Bros 2
Legend of Zelda
Final Fantasy
Castlevania
Clash at Demonhead
Kung Fu

Fester's Quest

You can fuck right off with that one, alvy.

I owned that game. I dont know how, or why, but I did. The first-person sections were the worse. That whole game....the worse.

DuckTales
Wall Street Kid.
Super Mario 1-3.
Rampage.
Punch Out.
Zelda.
Double Dare.
Star Trek 30th Anniversary.

underrated games in my opinion

Pinbot
High Speed
R.C. Pro-Am I & II
Battletoads
Battletoads & Double Dragon
Puzznic

Legend of Zelda
Zelda II
Contra
Super Mario Bros 3
Ninja Gaiden 1 or 2 (if you want a challenge)
Double Dragon II
Super C
Mega Man 2
Final Fantasy
Rad Racer

Battletoads & Double Dragon isn't necessarily an underrated game. It's just a rare game that not many people knew existed on the NES. I for one only thought it was on SNES.

Thank you guys, many I have played but there are several I am really interested in.

River City Ransom was the bees knees.

Obviously, one of my favorite NES games ever.
