On September 30, 2006, The 100 Best NES Games Ever was posted. Three and a quarter years later, forumer jprime created this page as a counterweight to the pre-existing comments page for the SNES list.

Abadox: The Deadly Inner War

joshwoodzell

I saw this advertised on the back page of an Archie comic when I was a wee lad and it looked disgusting. Naturally, I had to have it and was only slightly disappointed in it's gameplay. I still play it every couple years or so.


Ermac

Weird choice for 100 but im sure this is off the list once a revision is in place

Micro Machines

Ermac

I prefer RC Pro AM by a longshot but 99 isnt a horrible spot for it

Batman

Ermac

Wow WTF, while I never drank the koolaid on this game, it still is a top 50


Spy Hunter

Ermac

Better on the PC, but I will accept it here even though I can think of a few games that deserve this spot that were left off the list.

Monster Party

Battle Chess

Ermac

Much better on the PC and definately not top 100

The Magic of Scheherazade

Ermac

Yeah it was good, you either loved it or hated it though, id move this one up about 20 spots

Kiwi Kraze

Ermac

Kiddish game that appeals to a certain audience that could probably be a little higher

Tecmo Bowl

Ermac

Some assholes would put this in their top 20 simply because of the word "Tecmo" but not me. Most sports games on the NES sucked.

Hogan's Alley

The Three Stooges

Ermac

This game sucks but since its the Three Stooges I will let it pass at 90

Wrath of the Black Manta

Ermac

Should be higher in some people's books.

Golgo 13: Top Secret Episode

Ermac

I like these type of games, not kiddish at all and I wish I could have known about it as a kid.

For the longest time, this was the golden standard by which future Mario games (and to a lesser extent, platformers) were compared to. I think New Super Mario Brothers Wii raised the bar a little bit higher, but that's a completely different discussion.

If there is any one flaw in this game, it's that you can't save your progress. And while that sounds like a complaint from an inexperienced younger generation, a) I grew up with this game, b) plenty of other games that were made around the same time, if not before then had just as much, if not more, or less gameplay than SMB 3 had saving or password systems. So unless you are going to dedicate an entire Saturday to playing the game, the only way you can beat it is by using warps. That, and I always thought the music box was kinda pointless.
