With the release of our Top 10 Games You Should Play on the NES we found it so hard to limit our list to just 10 games we wanted to give some other games that make the NES the NES. Keep in mind, there is no order to these games at all but they all have a reason to be played for one reason or another. Take a look and read why we think each is deserving and then let us know what games you think everyone should play on the NES in the comments!

There are so many great NES games and different people like different games for many different reasons and experiences.
Here's mine: A Boy & His Blob, Adventure Island , Astyanax, Bubble Bobble, Buck O'Hare, Chip n' Dale Rescue Rangers, Gyromite, Kirby Adventure, Kung-Fu, Little Nemo, Marble Madness, Metal Storm, Micro Machines, Monsters In My Pocket, Monster Party, River City Ransom, Shatterhand, Silk Worm, Spy vs Spy, Super Dodgeball, Tecmo World Wrestling, Wizards & Warriors, Yo! Noid.

There is one game I can think of that isn't on this list:
StarTropics - This is one of those underrated gems that stands as my favorite game on the console. Zelda-esque adventuring, with an unconventional plot for its time, plus one of the most rewarding control schemes of all time. Throw in some badass music and impressive visuals, and you've got yourself an absolute winner.
Oh yeah, and your primary weapon is a yo-yo. A fucking YO-YO. That's an automatic win in my book.

I think you should have also included Rescue Rangers or Rampage.

My one problem with the NES is if you have a PAL console like I do. There are so many games that run slower than their NTSC counterparts, and that just kinda ruins the experience. Some games are also much harder to find PAL versions of, or are just confusing to find because of completely different names. For example, Ninja Gaiden's PAL version is called Shadow Warriors.

I'd add Chip & Dale Rescue Rangers, Star Tropics, Little Samson, Mega Man 3, Bubble Bobble, Adventure Island, and Little Nemo to name a few... but there are so many gems for that system.

River City Ransom, TMNT (everyone should experience the Dam), Castlevania 3, Blades of Steel, and Super Mario Bros. 2 (it's different, but it's good and it has awesome music).
