Top 13 NES Games
 

Video gaming is now a nearly $20 billion industry in the United States each year, but that would have been unimaginable when the Nintendo Entertainment System (or NES) was released in 1985. Following the collapse of the American gaming industry in 1983, this Japanese import became a vital cultural phenomenon for a generation of youth and made the name of its maker synonymous with the very idea of video games in America. Without the NES, the video game industry - once again dominated by Nintendo - wouldn't be nearly as large as it is today. Between Nintendo's in-house game development and third-party licensing, over 700 games were released for the system; here are the Top 13 NES Games.

I would say DD2 > Double Dragon

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

Really? I didn't think the show or the game was that popular.

Contra sucks.

It's overrated and short, but it's even better than the AC version, which is saying something considering it's on NES =P.

The only thing that is constant on "Top X NES games" lists is that Mario 3 will always be #1. Every other spot is personal preference.

I loved the Duck Tails cartoon. I rushed home every day so I could dance to the theme song.

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

Same minus the dancing part. Man, you are a weirdo huh? ;)

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

I don't really understand the Double Dribble pick. That game was merely okay.

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

I watched this too, minus the dancing.

Yeah, but just about everyone had it, at least that I knew.

That's usually how it goes.

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

When I think of Double Dribble, I think of Double Bubble bubblegum.

I never owned that, but when I played it I thought it was boring.

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

Contra is one of my all time favorites when it comes to NES games and Mega Man 2 I could play those over and over.

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

I don't find contra over-rated at all, I'm not sure I'd put it in my top 13, but it's not over-rated.

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

I never played bionic commando for nes. Is it good

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

Well, it's online here, so go play it. ;D

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

I loved when I was a kid, the gameboy color version is good too.

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

I always played the arcade version.

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

I could make a much better list.

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

Contra deserves at least a 3

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

Contra wouldn't make the top 15.

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

Im gonna rush out a list:, dont engrave it on my tombstone. (limit one game per series)

1. dragon quest 4
2. river city ransom
3. zelda 2
4. super mario bros. 2
5. destiny of an emperor
6. 1945k 3
7. kirby's adventure
8. final fantasy
9. punch-out
10. battle of olympus
11. metroid
12. crystalis
13. little samson
14. maniac mansion
15. clash at demonhead

This list does not include famicom, and i just typed them as they came to me, if I spent the time these would all most likely be in my top 30.

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

1945k 3?

Alright, we need to get the 10 biggest NES nerds on this site to make a proper list, make it top 100.

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

Count me in. This will be interesting.

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

I want in too =). You can't have a list without Gimmick and the JP version of Castlevania 3!

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

A few things of note for further entrents. When I say NES nerds I'm being literal. If you haven't played at least 400 NES games (roms count) then don't bother.

Re: Top 13 NES Games
 

So are we including the fami or no?
Are we going to disregard personal nostalgia for this and be resonable?
Is r.u. being difficult for everyone or just me?
