chupachup

ahh... is there really a contest?

koolkat

The undisputed KING of NES games. Anyone who’s played this game KNOWS how awesome this game is/was.


Vote for Legend of Zelda 2) Legend of Zelda

Besides it’s beautiful opening music, it set the standard for all adventure games that were to follow.


Vote for Tetris 3) Tetris

Both the official Nintendo version AND the rare Tengen version easily wasted countless number of hours of my life, and I loved every second of it. I can still school my kids at this game, despite their best efforts to beat their Dad.


Vote for Mike Tyson's Punch Out 4) Mike Tyson's Punch Out

Granted, this game was borne out of the original arcade version (Upper cut! Right hook! ), at the time this game came out, Mike Tyson WAS THE MAN and this game was just a TON of fun to play.


Vote for Mega Man 5) Mega Man

The original which spawned 5 sequel games (all of which were equally as cool) was simply a fun and yet frustrating game to play. 20 years later, I still love to get mad about having to start a level all over again when I die.


Vote for Contra 6) Contra

C’mon... Ya’ll still remember the "Contra code"

Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, B, A, Start. Booyah! 30 lives!

Every video game that has secret codes to enter in owes their existence to this game’s 30 lives feature.


Vote for Metroid 7) Metroid

Yet another legendary game franchise that to this day, still inspires millions of gamers with its numerous sequels. And to find out Samus was a GIRL!? haha


Vote for Excitebike 8) Excitebike

One of the original cartridges that was available when the system came out in 1985, this game was not only fun for it’s various courses, but especially fun because it was the first game I can recall that allowed you to design your own levels... VERY cool!


Vote for Bubble Bobble Bubble Bobble 9) Bubble Bobble

your a dinosaur the blows bubbles


Vote for Dragon Warrior III 10) Dragon Warrior III

This game was so highly anticipated in Japan that children cut school to buy it, causing the Japanese government to pass legislation preventing all future games in the series from being released on school days. This law is still in effect.
