i enjoyed (and still enjoy occasionally) these NES classics: Ducktales this is like a really good Castlevanaia game, except you are a duck https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fiNRIipAQQ8 Wizards and Warriors another great NES platformer! this one is a little like a metriod game. there are individual levels, but they are really big an free form https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5uZk5qwgjI Kid Icarus this is also basically Metriod, but you are a cherub boy. i believe it even uses the Metriod engine (i personally like Kid Icarus better) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ruMWWZ8axeY

Three-Phase posted:Why did some games with graphically intense areas suffer from bad slowdown (Jackal, Iron Tank) while others did not (Super Mario 3)? Was it programming, cartridge hardware, or a little of both? they would have different levels of quality in their programming i imagine. i would assume because Jackal was a quick and dirty port of an arcade game, where as Super Mario 3 was Nintendos flagship they had different budgets. anyone that likes Jackal NES should try out the original arcade game. it's basically SNES Super Jackal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5iS9JJJWvE

Cubey posted:Or, in the case of Mario 3, made them run at all, as that game did stuff the NES hadn't really been designed to do. and it continues to do stuff it was not intended to this day! Mario 3 is one of the most/best hacked NES games. there are dozens of total conversions: this one lets you play as the princess: http://www.emucation.com/downloads-group-2389.htm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0NZAMHtY1c or maybe luigi is your thing? http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/665/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wivy2RWS00k the crown jewel is Mario Adventure though. totally converts the game and add many new features by hacking the raw codes or something?! http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/70 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7SzSrVaqis

Xanei.exe posted:After the NES era, this was replaced by the obligatory Mine Cart level. That is a subject for another thread, however you should try Indiana Jones NES. the game is basically one big sewer/minecart level https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLqHhTG7XEY

Bug Bill Murray posted:While I'm sure those stories were all made up, people these days can beat Mike Tyson's punchout while blindfolded. Youtube it it's pretty impressive i once beat the first level of Star Fox blindfolded. i did not lose any health and got 100% kills too. i had to use all of my nova bombs though

Zorodius posted:FF6 had the best ending of its generation, with that huge 20-minute orchestral composition running through every single character's motif while the escape plays out they had to show the escape as the ending, because they were returning to a destroyed and dead world full of monsters. killing Kefka was cathartic, but it didn't fix the world

A Fancy Bloke posted:The Capcom Disney games on NES were all really way better than they needed to be. i also really enjoyed Micky Mousecapade. its pretty primitive by even NES standards, but when it was one of 5 games i owned i played the hell out of it. it was full of all kinds of secrets to find, a great time waster: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGZDE9z5D6Q
