Favourite NES games?

^CwAzY^

I decided there's no better way to kill a boring Sunday than playing old NES games hehe.. I'm playing Wizards and Warriors 3 at the moment, what a classic, other good ones are Mario 3, Digger T Rock, California Games

So what are your favourite NES games? Any recommendations? Thanks

Well Mario 3 was a great game, I'd also recommend Boulder Dash, very enjoyable game.
Any Zelda game was great fun too.

Elite was cool.
Digger T "rocks"
Bayou Billy
Duckhunt
Double Dragon

I still have my NES, i might take it out one of these days. I think I have 10 games for it with Zelda and Elite.

The first Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles game, with the top-down view before you enter the sewers.. not the 'arcade' versions that came later, never cared much for them.

Mario 1 and 3, obviously. Great games to this day.

Digger T. Rock was great too.

I liked Spy vs Spy.. I know there was about a thousand versions over the various machines but I only ever played the NES one. Great old skool multiplayer.

Rad Racer. Great for the time.

Cake Fiend

Rad Gravity
Maniac Mansion
Faxanadu
I seem to remember the Captain Planet game being surprisingly fun
Marble Madness! (Super Monkey Ball can SMB)
Rescue: The Embassy Mission (Rainbow Six can also SMB)

Marble Madness is mega cool, 2 player stylee.

Yeah! Marble Madness omg memories.. I nearly cleared that Wizards & Warriors 3 tonight except the last boss (Malkil) is impossible! FFS grr

Wizards and Warriors 3 such a great game so boring but addictave. I remember liking a game called ikirai warrior or something like that and probotector was great fun. Punch out was classic stuff.

That game was a load of my arse.

As for mine, Mario 3 is probably the best NES game ever. Absolutely seminal platformer that for me is only beaten by Super Mario World. Megaman 2 is the best of the series and 3 was rather good as well. Later games lost their spark. Castlevania 2 Draculas Curse was another fantastic game.

I'd have to say the teenage mutant ninja turtles as well, that was class, had a great swimming level in it and for some reason donatello's bo (stick) was twice as destructive as any sword or sai... strange.

Also california games was an awesome game...

I preferred the excellent conversion of the streets of rage type TMNT game but the first TMNT game is a classic. Lots of variation in gameplay throughout.

As a previous poster said.... Maniac Mansion !

That game was great. I remember buying it, it cost 67 punts and that was alot of money for a game at that time

Laguna

67 punts for Maniac Mansion!, haha!, I picked that up for about £10 in Sainsburys in 1994!. MM was a fantastic game and in my opinion it was better than its sequel (Day of The Tentacle)..

djmarkus

Kung Fu, a classic.

and captain skyhawk

So many of my games have been mentioned, Battle of Olympus beat the hell out of me, Trog really took up a lot of my time. Any of the Mario or Megaman games too.

I remember getting Star Wars on the NES. Such an expensive game at the time but it was so much fun. Remember thinking the graphics were the business back in the day.

biofreak

Super Mario!!

Roar

yeah that turtles game was class.. played it recently and it brought back so many memories.. couldnt get past level 2 though, when you're on top of the dam..

anyone ever play Robo Warrior... strange little game where you control a robo, umm, warrior and go around planting bombs to blow up hedges and shooting flying skulls..

I remember I got a loan of a game with a weird long red-haired guy who could kill people with his hair, which was great aswell, can't remember the name of it for the life of me. Anyone any ideas?
