Until you play these games you can never truly understand the world of gaming.
Or a good way to keep people out of retro gaming so there's less people buying up games.

What's wrong with Simpsons wrestling? It's been like 13 years if not more since I played it, but I enjoyed playing it :P It's not really broken or anything from what I recall, not any worse than something like Celebrity Deathmatch really.

Oh so many to choose from...and since someone said something about saying why you choose them...

2600

Asteroids - Classic
Pac-Man - Classic
Missle Command -Classic

NES

The Legend of Zelda - Addictive, classic, a long game
Super Mario 3 - Super addictive and fun
Kickle Cubicle - One of my childhood favs and very fun

SNES

Zelda: A link to the past - So much fun
Super Mario World - One of the best Mario games
Brutal: Paws of Fury - I think this fighting game is better then Mortal Kombat

Genesis

Sonic - Classic
Mortal Kombat - Great on the Genesis
(any fighting game) - I'm not a huge fan of Genesis so I don't have a ton of good games so far but...the Genesis is great for fighting games...unlike the SNES.

N64

Super Mario 64 - Second best Mario game
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time - Need I say anything?
Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards - Best Kirby game next to Kirby's Air Ride on the GC

PS1

Spyro the Dragon - The game that made me fall in love with the PS1
Tomb Raider - Classic
Tenchu: Stealth Assassins - Great game

Also no handheld love?

Gameboy

Pokemon Red - I picked Red because it was the first one I got even though I wanted blue...
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening - Can't go wrong with a Zelda game
Castlevania Legends - The game that hooked me onto Castlevania

Gameboy Color

The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages - I got this one and not Seasons so idk if Seasons is better?
Tomb Raider - It's an ok game
Harry Potter - Again it's an ok game

Game Gear

Sonic - It's a portable Sonic!
Shinobi - Fun
Ax Battler: A Legend of Golden Axe - Not sure on this one since I haven't played much of it

Love that you recommended Intelligent Qube... that's still a PSX game I play from time to time. It'd be cool if they'd revise this title on Xbox Arcade and PS Network.

Really Twisted Metal IV over Twisted Metal II? I guess I can't really judge since I never really played IV but II was just so cutting edge and I think it laid the foundation for the rest of the series.
