NES doesn't have any good games anymore outside the scope of the several hundred times magnifying glass that is nostalgia. Which is why I will say the only good game on NES is Super Mario Bros. 3, since it is the only one I hold any special delusions for.jedinat
It's not nostalgia that keeps me going back to NES games.

I strongly disagree with that, unless you're one of the people that says: "omg, *insert generic FPS here" just came out! I want that!!!" every month. I have picked up many titles that I never had as a child, never played, heck, some that I'd never heard of until recently. Games like Crystalis, Mario 3, Contra/Super C/Contra Force, Kid Icarus, Kirby's Adventure, Ducktales, and Megaman 1-6 (esp. 2!) are all still great games. Some of the top games everyone's mentioning I still haven't played, so there's plenty more to do as well.

Well, if you are the type who likes bare-bones narrative and repetative, primitive gameplay with punishing arcade sensibilites, go for it! Play all those old school NES games. There are worse ways to waste your time I guess, though I can't be bothered to think of any on the spot.

The best of the best in my opinion for NES (in no particular order): Destiny of an Emperor, Contra, Punch Out!, RC Pro-Am, Legend of Zelda, Dragon Warrior, Final Fantasy, Tecmo Super Bowl, Bionic Commando, Ninja Gaiden, Blades of Steel, Metal Gear, Castlevania, Metroid, Track & Field II, Swords & Serpents, Double Dribble, Magic Johnson's Fast Break, Ikari Warriors... those are the ones I always loved... by the time Super Mario Bros. 3 came out, I was sick to death of Mario.

First off; chuckles to the arguers complaining whether or not NES games have value anymore. People don't seem to get that being a gamer is about having FUN with a GAME. Whatever game is fun to the person is the game they play; obviously. People seem to lose sight of that. I for one love the NES, a lot. My favorite title would be a tie between Mega Man 2, SMB3, and Legend of Zelda. They both rocked in different ways; so comparing is difficult.
