Super C, though Bad News Baseball is way up there. It was way ahead of its time with all the customization you can do within team line-ups. Each player had separate stats as well regarding speed and arm.

While the majority of your list is excellent, I feel final fantasy mystic quest is carried on name alone. In reality that game is balls.

The gameboy final fantasy adventures is superior in every way.

i was born too late to really plaly any NES games, but i def had a SNES

i love every single one of the donkey kong country games (but 3 and 2 are my favourites), f zero, super mario kart, super mario all stars, and i’ve only really ever played it through an emulator but i LOVE terranigma

109

Street Fighter, Donkey Kong Country and TMNT were my first games.

Chrono Trigger… played that one a ton and I should have been studying for finals, but whatever.

Final Fantasy 3 got played over and over and over again too.

On NES it was Dragon Warrior III or IV. The original DW got so many hours played but it was because I started speed running it :slight_smile:

Another favorite on NES were the two ninja turtles games. Except the underwater stage in the first one. F that stage.

That dog can go straight to hell. Spent a lot of hours playing dh with friends though.

Megaman 2. My earliest memories in life are of playing Megaman 2 on the NES. I still play it to this day, beating it for quite likely at least the hundredth time just three days ago. Honourable mentions (in no particular order) go to Mike Tyson’s Punch Out, Dragon Warrior, Zelda: Link to the Past, Mario RPG, and Earthbound.

Mystic Quest isn’t an amazing game, but it was an interesting and different game and I only had like 2-4 games a year depending on how birthdays and xmas went so I played it a lot when I first got it.
I did also have fun playing FF adventure on GameBoy but that one is actually a Mana game, and FF legend was fun, but actually part of the Saga series.
They really loved slapping the Final Fantasy name on things back in those days for us Westerners.

Rygar was another great NES game, so hard to remember them all without looking at a list or something! That was one that my Dad gave up on but I managed to beat after countless hours.
Wizards and Warriors was another one, rented it and played it non-stop one weekend as a kid.

I didn’t play much SNES , but I’d have to say Starfox was my favorite.
