Zelda.

[Russ McGinley]

Metroid too.

Also I cannot get used to playing ROMs with the keyboard. Arrows on the right? Buttons on the left? I get so confused.

But really, video games peaked with the NES.

This thread is not complete without the following games:
Bubble Bobble

Both are two player simulataneous, which is a bit rare on the NES, and they are both fantastic. Fantastic I say.

See if the NES version of Archon is on there.

[Uston]

No love for Ninja Gaiden? That was always my favorite as a kid.

I hate that game. I am one of the few who had the patience to beat it. I shudder at my remembrance of that level where you have to swing over a million spike pits.
