Favorite NES game

**GK Punk** · 05-06-2003, 01:42 AM

So I am sure there are some old skool 80s NES gamers here, what was (is) your favorite NES games?

*That Matt Guy* · 05-06-2003, 05:29 AM

I don't really know, there are so many good ones to choose from. Either Punch Out or North and South.

*kyabetsu* · 05-06-2003, 06:05 AM

okay... i've never been much of a gamer. I came into consoles way to late to be terribly GOOD at them. But yeah. i do remember going over to friends' houses and playing 2 NES games for HOURS: BUST-A-MOVE (puzzle Bobble) and of course... the first Mario game with yoshi in it: SUPER MARIO LAND.

...yes. i'm sure there are BETTER games out there. i KNOW there are more challenging ones... but those were the ones that i could be 1/2 way decent at in the 3-hour-chunks i got to spend over at my friends' places after school.

And yeah. my tastes are pretty simple. I like bright colors and things that make little Beeply-boo-doo-doo noises.

of course.... it was always cool to WATCH someone with skill play MegaMan

[EDIT}: you know what... this only PROVES i know jack about video games... i played these on the SNES not the NES. .... oops. okay. i'm a twit. *shrugs* but i still liked these games for what it's worth.

though my favorite NES game was duck hunt. i rule at duck hunt. and not in a "i stand 2 feet from the screen way."

*kya attempts to spin the pistol around her finger only to get the cord wrapped around her wrist.*

okay... well. yeah. but i got to level 30 twice. i AM good at that game. ...and i'm certain THIS time around that i'm on topic. NES game. not SNES.

Sorry bout that.

*The Defibrillator* · 05-06-2003, 11:22 AM

lol @ kya. actually the name of the game your talking about is super mario WORLD, if I am not mistaken. thats ok though!

edit: here's a pic

My favorite games are the TMNT games and Metroid.

*JameO* · 05-06-2003, 11:36 AM

I really like Super Mario WORLD. I also enjoyed the Zelda game for it, I really don't know the full name but they brought it out for GBA. I also found thos game called Gaii or something like that...similar to Zelda style fights and talking with people....It is pretty good. There are also a few more that I enjoyed...but I just can't remember them since my SNES isn't here.

*kyabetsu* · 05-06-2003, 11:39 AM

yes yes....
*Kya flogs herself for such a mistake.*

How about you, GK - you started this topic.

**Karpo_007** · 05-06-2003, 03:43 PM

This was about NES not SNES, so I'l have to say Super Mario Bros. 3. There are many others, but I think that was the best.

**GK Punk** · 05-06-2003, 03:50 PM

Yeah wow I forgot to post...

anyways, some of my favorites are, the Super Mario series, Zelda series, METROID(!!!!!!!!) and Clash at Demondhead, Ninja Gaiden, Wizards and warriors.. rush n attack.. that Rambo game... so many others.. I miss the old days when we'd sit around at recess and talk about all the codes and secrets in games, remember those days?

hey rapheal its called link to the past its awsome and I think it was for snes

Krangfan · 05-06-2003, 04:04 PM

I don't have many games, I've got Duck Hunt/Super Mario Bros. (two games on one cartrige), Ridge Racer, Wheel of Fortune, Dig Dug 2, and Dino Rikki. My favorite is Duck Hunt, that game is fun!

*Voltron* · 05-06-2003, 06:37 PM

For the life of me I can't remember what it's called. It was this game where you were a karate guy who entered these tournaments. But while you weren't doing that you were out fighting these guys in the wilderness. it was the oddest game I've ever played. I don't suppose anyone would remember it, would they?

Psycrow · 05-06-2003, 07:01 PM

Like Karpo, even though there a number of good NES games, I find Super Mario Bros. 3 to be the best for the system.

*Kameko* · 05-06-2003, 07:13 PM

The only NES game I ever owned was the ORIGINAL Super Mario Bros. I liked it, but I always got so fed up (I TOLD YOU TO JUMP!! YOU FREAKIN' IDIOT!!!! ARGH!!!) that mom frequently limited my time on it. I never did beat the game.

Duck Hunt was cool (whoo-hoo, I get to play with a gun!), but the darn dog gave me the creeps.

I also had a third game (same cartridge as the other two; it came with the system). It was something like marathon runners or olympic runners or something along those lines. I remember it had a floor mat that you had to stand (and run in place and 'jump hurdles' on) to win. I sucked at that game too.

In fact, I would even try to cheat (operative word being 'try') by jumping and landing on the couch, then jumping back down onto the mat, thus increasing my air time. It never really worked, but that didn't stop me from trying.

I guess if I have to choose a favorite, I'd say Mario Bros. 3. Or was it two? I can't remember. I just know that I didn't own it, and it had really annoying music. And 'doors' that you could go through, which would make everything go 'nighttime'.

...what was I talking about?

..Oh, I remember. Wild factiods: The last time I played on my NES was fifth grade(I'm in my first year of college now). My house-rabbit (yes, she was litter trained), chewed through the wires. And the wires of my keyboard -- while I was using it. And the wire for the Microwave. While it was plugged in.

Amazingly, she never electrocuted herself. Sheesh.

And mom refused to fix it (My NES, not the microwave), even though I knew that she was well-skilled at wire splicing (we lived in an old house, heh).

Anyways, the Nintendo Entertainment System was the first and last game console I've ever owned. Go Old School! Whoo!

~~Leo656~~ · 05-06-2003, 07:36 PM

Voltron: The game you are referring to would be "The Karate Kid". Yes, it was based on the movie and yes, it was very strange.

Kameko: The "thrid game" on your cartridge was called "World Class Track Meet". That was a special "collector's version" of the NES that came with the 3-in-1 game cartridge as well as the Power Pad. My dad got me the same version back when I was about 6 or 7.

Also, you're talking about Super Mario Bros. 2, not 3.

And yes, I've played entirely too many video games.

As for my three favorites on NES? Ooh, tough one. I guess I'll say Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, and Mike Tyson's Punch Out. There are really too many to name.

Peanut · 05-06-2003, 09:04 PM

Super Mario Bros. as I beat it at the age of 3. Next up would probably be Mega Man 2. I loved that game sooooooo much, but I could never beat Dr. Wily. I remember when the battery died in my MM2 cartridge and I cried and cried and cried. Sad times.

*Tetsu Deinonychus* · 05-06-2003, 09:33 PM
