I heard the NES remix games are pretty fun, but I'm not sure if it's what you're looking for?

?? remix ??
idk i know theres people old enough here to have played games on an NES. im asking for title recommendations.
 
Kirby's Adventure
Adventures of Lolo 1-3
Solstice
Adventure Island


And of course Bayou Billy.

Edit: Also NES Remix is fun and all, but I got the 3DS version and all the Kirby's Adventure levels lag like crazy. I doubt it's like that in the Wii U releases.

I used to have a SNES, but that's it.

Is the Mario RPG game on the NES or SNES? That's supposed to be really good.

you mean the legend of the seven stars one?? thats snes.
im trying to get this snes emulator to work on my netbook but its telling me a .dll file is missin.
 

Not duhhh, you could have them on Virtual Console or have bought older rereleases.


Kirby's Adventure
Ducktales
Metroid
Megaman II
Contra

Legend of Zelda I + II if you want to play the classics. I personally feel the first Zelda feels REALLY dated, though I still liked Zelda II.

Well theres...

Kirby's Adventure (Though you're better off with the remake for better control honestly)
Ducktales
Mega Man 2, 3, & 6
&
All the Mario games on the NES (Except Lost Levels, screw that game).
 
I second Kirby and Zelda... they are awesome.

Also: Megaman (any), Battletoads, Double Dragon, Castlevania I, TMNT, Batman, Contra, Rampage, Sunset Riders, and Paperboy.

I still have my NES! Doesn't work very well though, so I use Homebrew on my Wii.

Edit: Forgot S.R. is SNES. Still a great game!

I managed to get the N64 emulator working on my laptop and my laptop isn't meant for gaming, but it ran perfectly. The problem with all of these new games these days is that they manage to entertain you for hours on end. If I played a NES game rn I'd probably get bored of it within 5-10 minutes or so, unless it's a hugely popular game which is renowned for immersing gamers into hours of gaming fun.

Depends on the games (both old and new).

If a game is just as good as I remember it being, I'll at least play it through to the end. I think Banjo-Kazooie was the last 'older game' that held my attention all the way through. Or maybe Contra or Final Fantasy II.

With most new games I tend to get bored half way through since I'm just doing the 'same old' as in other games but with different cutscenes as the Devs try to push me as quickly as possible into the multiplayer. Seeing the game through to the end is usually so that the few hours I've already spent on it don't feel wasted...
Though the 3DS and WiiU tend to suffer from that a lot less...Like, almost not at all.
 
Nobody has seriously said Balloon Fight?! I'm ashamed in all of you! My personal favorites on the Nintendo Entertainment System:
  • Balloon Fight
  • Duck Hunt
  • Metroid
  • Wario's Woods
  • Excitebike
  • Donkey Kong Jr.
  • Mega Man 2
  • Clu Clu Land
 
I'm surprised as well that nobody said Balloon Fight until just above me!

Balloon Fight
The Mysterious Murasame Castle (albeit a newer release for some)
Kid Icarus
Adventures of Lolo
Wrecking Crew
Donkey Kong
Ice Climber
Excitebike

- - - Post Merge - - -

Ducktales

That too, I forgot until I looked back.
 
Urban Champion
Balloon Fight
Ice Climber

I think snes Warios Woods is better but people have attachment to the nes one
 
The Super Mario Bros. games, The Legend of Zelda, Castlevania III, Contra, Super C, Double Dragon II, Shadowgate, Maniac Mansion, Ninja Gaiden, Batman, Tecmo Bowl, Mega Man 2.
