Anyone remember those Olimpic games where you had to wiggle your Joystick really fast to run, shot put, etc. But in the end the only thing you suceeded in was breaking your Joystick? Masterbat0rs owned at those kinda games.

Kid Icarus so needs a sequel. Goddamned eggplant wizard...
That said, there's so many class games in this thread. Bionic Commando is still Crazy McFun, the original Mario Bros I'm still playing right now... beaten it a bazillion times and it never gets old. You're in another castle, Princess? Oh, you cad! :lol: BATTLETOADS!! I too shattered one perfectly good NES controller on that. Battletoads on SNES then made me shatter a perfectly good SNES controller. Classic title. Rygar (I think someone said that) I lost so much time to, and Metroid (while I think the NES Metroid is today totally unplayable) was so HOLY FUCK at the time it needs a mention. A bazillion mentions. I think someone mentioned Master Blaster, which I've heard is all kinds of awesome, so I think I'll start scouring eBay for it.
PS Eric-the-ded, "Uh-oh, the truck have started to move!!" is Metal Gear :lol:
Personally, my favourite NES game (that I own, at least) for mistranslations is Battle Rangers.
http://www.engrish.com/image/engrish/battlerangers.jpg
Mario 1 & Zelda 1
I'll make and post a piccy of my beatiful NES when I get home and if i don't forget it.... (which I prolly will) :lol:
1. The Legend of Zelda
2. Mario 3
3. Zelda II: The Adventure of Link (seriously, it took like 10 years for that game to grow on me enough to like it).
Oh, and for co-op games, in no particular order it would have to be:
Double Dragon 2
Contra
Jackal
Contra
Excitebike
Ikkari Warriors
Not sure if it was 8 bit or not, but I've always lovde the orignal Chrono Trigger on my, erm, SNES emulator.
EDIT: Oh, and Target Renegade on the Spectrum. I must have accumulated weeks worth of game time playing that in co-op with my friends.
I remember being a kid and playing Castlevania with the kid next door.
If I remember it correctly, it took a damn good while to go through that game.
A couple of days later we were totally destroyed :p
Its not a Nintendo game. But its damn good.

Castlevania II : Simons Quest!

Super Mario Bros 3
But the own was amiga:

Mike Tyson's Punch Out, Contra, Metroid...My first games were RiverCity Ransom and Double Dragon...

damn.
i forgot about Contra (http://www.opedog.com/mp3/Game%20Music/Minibosses/Minibosses%20-%20Contra.mp3).

heh like Track n field, daily thompsons decathlon or something they the only joystick wagglers i remmeber but they were on a diff system when i played em O_o
Nes game... mario
Kid Icarus so needs a sequel. Goddamned eggplant wizard...
I seem to remember reading somewhere once that work was being done on a new Kid Icarus game on the Gamecube. Can't remember where though.

Anyway, Bionic Commando is still one of the most ingenious games ever. I'm sure we can all agree on that, or at least those of us who've played it can.
Beyond that, I'm the only person in the world who thinks Zelda II: The Adventure of Link is still one of the best Zelda games. Lots of people hated it though, it was just ahead of it's time, considering the modern Zelda games are a lot more like it.

You sir, are a God among men. Zelda II is still one of my favourite in the series, way ahead of it's time. Probably just too ahead of it's time for it's own good, though...
in no particular order,
Master Blaster
Maniac Mansion
Zelda 1 & 2
Star Wars
Double Dragon games
Battletoads and Double Dragon :D

So many good games on the NES, i have 3 NES consoles at home and loads of games :-\
who here has the Nesticle? Its great.
Turtles 1 was great.

menolak secret of mana absolutely fucking rocked. the end of game was a bitch ;) but when u got 3 people huddled round on a multi tap we pwned the boss dude :) i loved it and still do. i wont tell u the ending as i cant remember all of it but it is very good.
double dragon IS the best game on the nes by miles. either that or operation wolf. lol
Secret of Mana on the SNES fuckin rocked. I'm still pissed that I never finshed it.
I used to have it running on a snes emulator, but i finished it on the console, me > u n00b :D
Btw, my first one was a Game Boy with tetris and spiderman, but i enjoyed playing Super Mario and Duck Tales on my neighbour's NES
Anyone heard about "Landstalker" on genesis/megadrive ? Great console RPG too
Here are a few of the games that sucked away days of my childhood :) See if you recognize any of 'em:

Anyone remember Hostages and Alcatraz?
The Splinter Cell of there day.
megaman, and too many to count .. lol
OMG a boy and his blob and rc pro am
-FN- you're making me so damn nostalgic right now .. lol. I recgonize pretty much all of those >_< if not the name at least that I did indeed play them.
Karnov or whatever I recall that . didn't he use fire or something?
Karate kid ..hmm I recall the ice breaking between sessions thing .. don't remmember if i had problems with that . .lol.
Commando .. beat the . what was it? .. 4 levels and repeat! and I think there were secret areas you could bomb or what not . .lol
skate or die!
spy hunter just wasnt' as good on a console imo :( it just rules on arcade though :D
Super Off road is always fun :D
haha jaws .. damnit .. trying to spear him with the boat at the right time >_<
Gadius .. hmm wasn't t hat the up up down down left right left right B A start game or one of the first :D . . .dern that Volcano section ..lol.
but wait .. where's kid nikki!! you can't forget the spikey head dude!!
me favorite was battle frogs or what ever on game console called dendy oltho they had this game for nitendo too. that game owned so much, all u did was walking around with dude who looks like frog and kick ppl asses, they did special moves and sht too w00t :D
oh yeah battle toads was sickness
oh yeah battle toads was sickness
ah thats what it was :lol: ...the favorite part is when u do finishing move and they show er big boot lounching some one in to space lol that was funny, i love it ..........
.....this thread made me get some old consol emulators and get some roms lol.. ah vectorman 1,2 was another uber game on sega genesis ....
uuuu....here uber game for ya it's not console but it deffenetly best flash game ever...:linky (http://www.rudeplay.com/flash/alien.swf)
Shadow ninja (i think) was totally high tech when i was young... Loved that game..
Theres too many to decide, but if I would pick I think megaman 1-3, legend
of zelda and metroid would get the medals..
river city randsom
zelda 1 and 3 ( friggin hate zelda 2)
mario 3
contra ( all of them )
megaman ( all of them )
edit:
adventure island ( all of them )
final fantasy
ninja gaiden ( all of them )
Wizards & Warriors *** ALL TIME FAVORITE SERIES ***
Classic NES games for me are
Zelda 1
Mario 1, 2, and 3
Contra 1
Metroid 1
Final Fantasy 1
Those are the ones that I can think of off the top of my head.
I don't mind Zelda 2, but it is and ever will be the bastard red-headed step-child of the Zelda line. And it is *not* like the current Zeldas. There's no God-damned Iron Knuckles for one. Those guys were the single fucking hardest enemy I've ever fought in *any* Zelda game, especially when you were in a tight hallway and couldn't jump. I HATE them, especially the blue ones. *shudder* After Zelda 2 there have never been any Zeldas that have an XP-based skill system, either.
SNES games... Crono Trigger would have to be my all time favorite (I think I've logged over 80 hours of play time on my cartridge version, all my characters are at least around level 80; can kill Lavos in like 5 minutes if my luck is good :p), followed closely by Metroid 3 and Zelda 3. Final Fantasy 6 is up there, too. And how could I forget about Secret of Mana. That game rules. I got all my guys up to level 99 with level 9 spells and weapons. :p
--Stryfe
Only one comes to mind that I STILL enjoy playing o.O the Wizards & Warriors series, in particular W&W3.
Other than that there mario 1,2,3
kirby's adventure (hmm or was that 16bit)
top spin
Pro AM racing
Hmm well thats about all I still remember from those days, though I recognize alot of the above pictures (though some of them I played on pc... never knew they where on nes to)
master blaster
and
Rygar
I so agree, Master Blaster is GREAT and Rygar was really good too, I loved the xp gain. I also liked:
Metroid
Zelda
Super Mario 2
Gunshot
Lifeforce
Goonies (spell?)
Hm so many good games, castlevania, Lolo, battletanks, ice climbers, pro am, Link, well thats all I can come up with now :P
SNES games... Crono Trigger would have to be my all time favorite (I think I've logged over 80 hours of play time on my cartridge version, all my characters are at least around level 80; can kill Lavos in like 5 minutes if my luck is good :p), followed closely by Metroid 3 and Zelda 3. Final Fantasy 6 is up there, too. And how could I forget about Secret of Mana. That game rules. I got all my guys up to level 99 with level 9 spells and weapons. :p
--Stryfe
Agreed, as far as SNES goes, Chrono Trigger > all
phew, i have multi favs
Metriod, marios, neocron.....ops, bionic commando, battle toads, double dragon
o ya and what yall know bout legend of the black mantis
snes, all time fav is FF3, chrono trigger and legend of mana
