Damn, that's a bunch of the best already.

I'd say Metroid and Castlevania too. And maybe some other Zeldas?

RIVER CITY RANSOM

Most underrated NES game ever! Only complete NES nerds know it. I don't think anybody has fond memories of that as a child.

And BUBBLE BOBBLE!

Bionic Commando x 100

i'm no NES nerd, but I remember digging Castlevania 2 when it was new.

Uh, hello?! Double Dragon 2.

― Andrew (enneff), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 22:34 (twenty years ago)

And definitely buy those quasi-legal 3rd party Bible games. Not because they're any fun to play, they're really terrible. You know you want them.

why do people on ebay have to charge so much for shipping?!
$6.00 to ship an NES cartridge is both crazy and insane.

― Christopher Costello (CGC), Wednesday, 11 January 2006 02:11 (twenty years ago)

i forgot to mention that it came with a powerpad

I love the PowerGlove. It's so bad.

― Andrew (enneff), Wednesday, 11 January 2006 04:01 (twenty years ago)

Bubble Bobble thirded. Greatest video game theme ever?

― Petra Ellenshaw, Wednesday, 11 January 2006 08:53 (twenty years ago)

Excitebike. You can pull WHEELIES. I'm not even lying.

― Mestema (davidcorp), Wednesday, 11 January 2006 09:50 (twenty years ago)

Also, RBI Baseball. If not for the game itself, then at least to marvel at the original NES' dinosauric technology. How can you not chuckle at all the players running in the same direction without any regard to the position of the ball, plowing into walls with unfettered determination?
