Double dribble- another basketball class
Mario brothers
Double dragon
Zelda
Mike Tyron's punchout

Sega
Nba jam-'the best game ever made by sega
Mortal combat- finishing move codes were always fun to find out
Ken Griffey jr. baseball.

It's your turn what about you?

Everyone has/will hit the big ones. Going with one that might not get as many mentions.

 

[GYERater]

Nintendo - Punch-Out, Original Mario, Balloon Fight, Double Dribble, WWF Wrestlemania, and Double Dragon.

Sega - Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, NBA Jam, and Bulls v. Blazers were my go-tos.

Also liked Paperboy and there was some helicopter game I can't remember the name of that were both awesome!

Should separate the two out....obv NES is going to get the most attention but Sega did play a key role in our generation. It was pretty damn groundbreaking over the graphic/gameplay of NES. Have no idea how much time was devoted to NBA Jam and Griffey baseball...

Will add one NES that never gets the full proper due....Baseball Stars. Revolutionary, really. Team customization and full stats? Yes, sir. We had an NES hooked up to our big screen at UK in the early 2000's for the shear binge drinking/gambol alone. Was hilarious.

NES Golf was great. Contra was the best action game and Zelda was the best strategy game, but golf was laid back and fun.

That's the first one I thought of.

If you're a game nerd like myself and are ever interested in emulation, go to FreeRoms. Both are phenomenal resources for emulators for virtually all legacy systems in addition to roms for every game you can imagine.

Pick up one of these from Best Buy / Amazon and you're all set.

My preferred emulators for Genesis are linked.

How about dig-dug? Some cheapo but was really fun to play. FCC.

I mentioned it above. Before it's time. We gambol'd / drank like crazy to that game despite it being the Playstation era.

For gambol purposes, no one in our house could be the Stars. Usually came down to Japan Robbins vs Ninja Blacksox....occasionally somebody would give the Brave Warriors a shot.

In the standard matchup, the NB speed/defense/small ball capabilities was tough but the JR had some pop. The 3 spot batter, Oh, was just a monster at the plate.

No better feeling ever than knowing your foe had poorly managed his pitching staff and his set up man or closer starts hanging some beach balls out there. could be 5 runs down and you both knew the move is coming. JR had a guy Nomura off the bench that clinched many a $ for me coming in to destroy a tired pitcher.

Man, I'm getting pretty amped to play that now.

Two of OP's Sega games weren't exclusive to Sega, and the third (Ken Griffey Jr. Baseball) wasn't even on Sega.

 

[Blind Karl Hess]

Donkey Kong Country
TMNT: Turtles in Time

[Headro]

All Dragon Warriors.

Anyone ever play Tombs and Treasures?

 

[MWes11]

Streets of Rage 2. Great game. Was always hard getting past the baseball level with the flying fat guys. When you would beat that you would be in the elevator with people continuously dropping in.

Good times.

Baseball Stars was great, but there wasn't a worse feeling in the world than when your NES wouldn't start causing you to have to blow on the game, which often resulted in the memory of the game being wiped. That ruined many a league my neighborhood buddies had going.

By the way, how about some love for the Game Genie. Yeah, the cheats were fun, but using it made my NES actually work most of the time. Revolutionary!

Know that feeling. Me and my brother would make every team and build them up to where the players should be. Game deletes were awful.

Some NES games that I liked that's not been mentioned much:

*Wizards and Warriors
*Mario Brothers
*Kung Fu
*Rush'n Attack
*Goonies II
*Ikari Warriors I, II, and III
*Jack Nicklaus Golf
*Black Bass
*Slalom

Favorite would be hard to pick - either Metroid, Zelda, Kid Icarus, or Punchout. Impossible to choose, but I loved knocking Tyson out.

 

[Rex Kwon Do]

Anyone else really enjoy original Golf? Man, loved that game. We'd gambol on that too. Put up some sick numbers. Could really put some action on the ball if done properly.

 

[barbourfor3]

Black Bass was awesome....Dusty Diamonds All Star Softball was another good one I haven't seen mentioned
