hahaha, everywhere I post people are confused as why I didn't post Dragon Qarrior/Battletoads/Kid Icarus as they are normally in every such top 100 NES games list.

The fact is, I simply don't like them.

Way to troll everyone. I wouldn't have it any other way! In fact, you can at least partly thank Dwedit for the idea - I was thinking of a way to finish the list, and since I actually do like Action 52 in a so-bad-its-good way, it seemed fitting. But I'm not a total troll - just read through it. Lik...

Hey guys, sorry about the delay - I'm finally done! Here's the last entry in my top 100 NES/Famicom games list! Here is what I consider to be unquestionably the best game on the hardware. Thanks for everyone who has supported me through this! Rest assured, I will be doing top ## lists for other syst...

For those who want to see a quick easy visual recap of the top 100 NES/Famicom games 100-2, check this handy chart I put together. (56k warning)

Yeah. Megaman 2 is a complete labour of love. It also features many ideas and enemy concept art originally intended for the first game, but abandoned because of space limitations. Megaman 2 uses a CHR double the size of the first game with more than twice the number of sprites from Megaman 1. Also p...

Oh shit, you figured it out.

Yeah, I was just going to recommend you guys all watch Egoraptor's Sequelitis series. Although not strictly about what I'm saying he does address many of the same issues with modern game design that irritate the hell out of me. Ironically enough, his jokes about Roll stopping to give advice really D...

Yeah, I guess that was a poor example, but you get the point - modern game developers seem paranoid that player's will give up if you don't explicitly tell them how to solve even the simplest of problems. It's very rare that I play something that doesn't at least mildly insult my intelligence as a p...

Well different tastes for different gamers. I understand where you're coming from, but I don't agree. Mapmaking and all that really appealed to me as a kid, and it still does today. I like figuring things out for myself whenever possible. Regarding that one part of Sonic 3, haha yeah I too have memo...

Thanks for your detailed reply Kasumi. I can understand how frustrating and a chore Zelda 1 can seem now looking at it when you compare it to its sequels and much more modern games. as I said in my review, Zelda was made for a time before the internet. Every single time you went "Oh I'll just l...

Crystalis is 43 but Zelda is 4 and Final Fantasy is 7. Lol, lost ALL credibility there. That's an unfair statement. I haven't simply elected titles at random. In each article, I explain why each are worth playing. Even so, if you require more, allow me to explain. God Slayer/Crystalis has real pote...

Sorry it's a little late. Here's #3.
