NES & Genesis Games
« on: August 11, 2005, 11:08:20 AM »
I remembered about the little grey box of a NES I has all those years ago, and the Sega MegaDrive II (Genesis to USA) and went hunting for emulators.

Well I found NES & Genesis emulators, and some good sites with hundreds of archived ROM's, but I can't remember any of the good games I used to have. So far I've got:

Genesis

Sonic 1/2/3
Desert Strike
Urban Strike
Jungle Strike
MK 3
GoldenAxe 3
Streets of Rage 1/2/3


NES

Final Fantasy 1/2/3
Metal Gear


Any recommendations? Were there any other Metal Gear games on NES, and were the Legacy of Kain games on it too?

Thanks for your recs. I found all of them except for Yo Noid! and Legend of Zelda (which I remember having at one point years ago  :)).

> Bad Dudes (Greatest. Story. Ever)

I've never even played this, and I agree.

Also, Tecmo Bowl, Mike Tyson's Punchout, Double Dragon and SMB 1.

edit: If you're doing Genesis, you should also do SNES.  Get A Link to the Past, which is still awesome almost 15 years after it came out.

Ok I've got Dragon Warrior 1/2/3/4, Double Dragon 1/2/3 and Tecmo Bowl.

You'll laugh at this: what is SMB? I couldn't find A Link to the Past anywhere either  :eek:

Super Mario Brothers.

Look, if you didn't know that, you should just stop playing video games.  Also, Link to the Past is a Legend of Zelda game; that should help the search.

Now that you've added SNES, I'm going to add Street Fighter 2 and Super Mario World.

If you're going the ROM route, it wouldn't take much effort at all to find every ROM for all 3 of these systems.

Anyone ever play "The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles" (I think that's what it was called) or "Chip and Dale: Rescue Rangers" for NES? Chip and Dale is awesome; it actually has a two-player cooperative mode!

And indiana jones was one of my favorites (I think I only actually beat it once :D)

Man there's so many great games on the NES/SNES, I didn't know what I was missing  :D
Thanks for all the recs. I can't keep up, I got a folder brimming with ROMs.

I wonder if I'll be able to find a NES or SNES on ebay?

God knows how many were sold back in the early 90s... I wouldn't doubt that someone would have one

Does anyone know what platform Legacy of Kain: Blood Omen is on? I'm pretty sure it's NES or SNES but I can't find it anywhere  :(

What?

To be more accurate, IGN said it came out for the PS, Dreamcast, and Saturn.  Sure as hell wasn't the NES or SNES, though.
