In need of games for older Nintendo consoles

Choofers · 06-17-2013, 06:37 PM

I won't have a very powerful computer for the next month, so most modern gaming is oit of the question.

I'm looking fot games from NES, SNES, GBC and GBA. I've played most of the big games for these consoles, so games that could be considered "rare gems," obscure, etc.

t.hanks in advance (get it) trig(o:

This. So much this.
Also, Yggdra Union if you want a pretty decent strategy RPG with a wicked soundtrack.

If no one said it yet, definitely give the Metroid games a try for SNES and GBA.

**Coolboyrulez0** · 06-17-2013, 10:38 PM

well since gba is gb compatible ima be mad if you dont pick up the wario land series (serious each one from 1 to 4 is excellent and fairly unique, my favorites being 2 and 3)

Arntonach · 06-17-2013, 10:38 PM

Actraiser, Plok, Tetris Attack (Panel de Pon & Pokemon Puzzle League), Tetrisphere and Bubsy need some love.

Any Castlevania, Fire Emblem, Zelda, Kirby, Pokemon and Mario should be a given.

And don't forget Bomerman 64.

SNES:
-Secret of Evermore
-Adventures of Dr. Franken
-Zombies ate my neighbors
-Bubsy in Claws Encounters of the Furred Kind
-King of Dragons
-Jurassic Park
Made you a folder containing all. Bubsy Requires BSNES, which I also provided for you:

On the SNES...
Lufia I & II on the will keep you busy if you like RPGs. Those two games are very overlooked but VERY good. However, they don't offer much "player guidance" and are slightly on the hardcore side so if you haven't played many RPGs, I'd avoid them.
Also check out Mohawk & Headphone Jack, that game is really trippy, and fairly challenging as well. I still haven't beaten level 3.
Rock & Roll Racing is some good fun if you have a friend to play with. And the sound track is pretty awesome for a budget racing game. It's one of Blizzard's earliest games. (They went by a different name at the time.)

On the Game Boy Color, I'd recommend Mickey's Racing Adventure. It's made by Rareware, so of course it's good. It also gets pretty damn challenging after the first few races. The one on top of the roller coaster is an absolute bitch to get 1st place on.

On the original Game Boy (which of course works on a GBC), I'd pick up Battle Arena Toshinden. One of my favorite on-the-go fighter games from my childhood.

idk what your income is like, but some of these games are pretty pricey

some of my favorite snes games that come under <$20 are phalanx, super offroad, super mario all-stars, super mario world, plok, top gear 2, and the great circus mystery feat. mickey mouse. the RPG games are only awesome if you enjoy the RPG linear kind of story genre haha
