Oh yeah! The Immortal! I forgot about that one. I remember staring at pictures of the Dragon from that game in a Nintendo Power and I was just dying to play it for months and months until a kid up the street got a copy and let me borrow it. I remember it being a pretty fun game, but I haven't played it in over 20 years.
Jackal is another great choice. I only ever played the arcade version, but I liked it a lot.
Like Bone said later, Blaster Master had a sequel on the Playstation. It could be best described as "a game I tried to like out of sheer love for its predecessor." It's pretty bland and the 3D graphics look utterly terrible by today's standards.
I was thinking more along the lines of "Top NES Games that Never Received a NES Sequel".

Although it has kind-of been done already with Double Dragon Neon, I still would not mind seeing a tongue-in-cheek sequel to Bad Dudes (or Karnov).
Likewise, I always thought that Jackie Chan's Action Kung Fu was one of the NES's best games, and it never received a sequel. (It was, however, ported to the TG-16.)
Finally, I was surprised that Nintendo never did anything with Ice Climber after including Nana and Popo in the Super Smach Bros. games.

Some days I still get upset that Bad Dudes doesn't have a simultaneous 2 player mode on the NES.

That fact gave me heartburn for many years. Thankfully, Data East ported Bad Dudes vs. Dragon Ninja (ARC) to the Nintendo Wii, and I am finally at peace...
