Did you just not play Super Mario Bros?
I did. Just not enough room for too many good NES games.
You had enough room to put Lifeforce on twice.
For some reason Battletoads wasn’t popular/known in my region. For fighting games, we were into Double Dragon and Kunio Kun (River City).
Jackal! That game was a bonding moment for my brother and I.
I love same-screen coop games. Too bad they aren’t popular any more after the 8-bit and 16-bit era.
It’s amazing how few great couch co-op games there are these days.
Needs more Crystalis
Ah, this just gave me a fun wallpaper idea and reminded me that my emulator exists. Thanks 👍
Balloon Fight! It’s similar to Joust (possibly even a rip off), but I find it to be a bit easier to control.
There is a video on youtube explaining the effort put into programming Balloon Fight to improve the controls.
I played a knock-off flash game called “Balloon Duel” as a kid. It was pretty fun, so I just decided to buy Balloon Fight to try it out. Thanks for the recommendation!
How’s the pinball one? Is it literally just called pinball? I’ve definitely played an old pinball game before but can’t remember the name or system but I love me some retro pinball lol
This one is just called Pinball, it is a first-party Nintendo game.
I love NES pinball. I do not like pinball games with realistic physics (too fast and too difficult). This one feels more like a game instead of a real pinball machine. Also, this one has a bonus stage with Mario in it.
I also like how clear and bright the visuals are. Too many newer pinball games are cluttered and flashy.
Space Cadet and NES pinball are my favourite video pinball games of all time.
I love space cadet! Lol, and sweet thanks, just played a game and it’s pretty fun :) I also found something called Family Pinball
What’s that one with a baby?
I played this on an emulator decades later and it was my all time favorite NES game. I ended up beating all 3 multiple times.
So many NES games require perfect timing under strong time pressure. This one being a puzzle game also requires some timing but you can plan your trip and try again if you mess up.
I actually helped develop levels for a copycat game some rando I met online made, it was fun!
I’d vote Dragon Quest III!
Dragon Quest for sure! Short but sweet. The sequels are longer. The final boss on Dragon Quest 5 was tough. Super Famicom great 90’s game.

City Connection! Love that game, fantastic soubdtrack.
Yeah it is a bit simplistic, but I go back to it for a short run once in a while. Miss the simple pick up and play.
No Zelda? Boooooooo
Great, after reading the words City Connection, that music will be stuck in my head for a week
Lot of ones inthere I don’t recognize, but I think the only one that should be added is Metroid.
Yeah. I want to highlight some games that are under-appreciated. If I add SMB/Zelda/Metroid etc then there would be less room for less known games.
