The major ones off the top of my head are Kid Icarus and any of the Sonics. My friends and I grew up hardcore Nintendo for the most part. Yeah, I've picked it up and most recently actually own Sonic 2, Sonic 3, Sonic Spinball, Sonic 2 for GG, Sonic Adventure and SA2 for DC, and Sonic Collection and Sonic Gems for GCN. I plan to sit down and delve into them all starting with number one but whenever I start playing one I put it down and start playing something else.... Don't know what my deal is. I think the size of my collection is intimidating and the gameplay intimidating?

You also owe it to yourself to get all the chaos emeralds!

Possibly Adventure Island on NES, and not playing it, but beating it.

I've always wanted to play AVP on the Jaguar. I've never checked to see if the game is any good, but as a kid I loved the idea of the game.

That reminds me I have never played Sonic 2 or 3 but I've been the first one.

This is why I have started to only buy arcade style games, they are a lot easier to get to the ending.
