RBI baseball was a blast. If you played the computer you could bunt a home run because the pitcher would chase it all the way to left field.
A few other noteables:
Sky Kid
Double Dribble
Operation Wolf
Bump N Jump
Maniac Mansion (greatest game ever, too bad no sequels emerged)
Final Fantasy

Nah, it’s because you get older and watch shit that isn’t aimed towards kids. Aladdin was on Toon Disney today, and I was watching it when I noticed an abundace of Lucky Charms, Hot Wheels, and other ads I haven’t seen in years.

I am ecstatic that someone else played Kirby Superstar. To this day, my friends and I still get fucked up and play Megaton Punch.[/quote]
I know that game was great! 10 Games on 1 cartridge, can’t beat that.
Bionic commando was pretty bad ass. They’re bringing that one to the 360 and ps3.
Zelda ocarina of time is the best game ever

Bring it. That Marcus Allen-Bo Jackson combo is tough, but nothing that I can’t stop with Ronnie Lott. Besides, you won’t be able to touch my Montana to Rice.

It was until you get stuck in the freaking water temple, get all the steps out of sequence to the point a game guide doesn’t even help, and spend mind numbing hours wandering around pushing water level buttons. AGH! It still frustrates me to think about it.
Oh I still play NES games all the time
favorite notables
RBI- Detroit Tigers are the secret weapon
Baseball stars. How could you not spend time building up McGwire, Griffey, etc?
Loved:
Metroid but it was hard shit.
all the Mega man series
the Zelda series
Loved SMB
Excitebike
Mike Tysons punchout
Contra
Jackal
I will kill any of you at RBI baseball (original) for NES. You can even have first pick for teams.

I see you are in Arkansas. I will drive to your house, sweep you in a “best of seven series” in RBI Baseball, eat all your food, hook up with your sister, and drop a deuce in your bathroom all in the same day.
Melvin, we need to set one of these up in ARK.

Rice was/is such a freak in those games. Guy could be swarmed by the entire defense and he’d still find a way to catch the ball.
I don’t think there was a “bad” team in the original Tecmo Bowl; that’s what makes it so great. Every team was really hard to play against.
Mario Cart - SNES

Let’s see, I think some of my other favorites were:
Off-Road
Little League World Series
Snake, Rattle, 'n Roll
Kirby’s Adventure

I’ll take da Bears and beat you everytime. Super Tecmo was far better though. I still have my original NES and games. I just played my 10 year old son in Super Tecmo on Sunday and beat him 3 times. One of the games, I had Barry Sanders, 1st and goal on the 1 yard line. I took the pitch and ran all the way back to my own end zone, dodging defenders all the way back, then ran all the way forward and could have scored a TD if I hadn’t gotten cute and circled back at the 10 yard line. I made the first loop ok but tried a second loop and got snagged.
My son prefers STB to Madden on the PS2.
