I hope so to lol! I hope I dont recommend a game you think is crap

Almost bought that on LukieGames, but their prices go from good deal one day to overpriced the next.

Heres a link to Cabal video for ya jd.. along with just about any other nes game you might want to see..

Or... http://nesguide.com/games/cabal... The site kills a lot of my time.

Agreed. lol

These aren't games that are exactly 'underrated', as I don't really hear people speaking much ill of them. They're just a tad less popular I guess...

Fire 'n Ice (aka Solomon's Key II) is my favorite NES puzzle game, easily. The Nintendo Age guy is based on Dana right?

Gimmick! is one of my favorite 'jump 'n run' platformers, alongside the Mario games even. It provides an amazing challenge, has some of the best graphics for the system... and is simply brilliant. Lots of unique sprites with distinct characteristics, and the gameplay is so refined that it asks the player to learn to game to its limits. There are many moments where you're like "I have to do THAT?", it's great. It's the type of difficulty that feels very intentional and clever (something like Mega Man 9), as opposed to something that feels hard and cheap (Ghosts 'n Goblins). I can't believe it was only made by 4 people, 2 of whom only did music.

I like the zombie nation music a lot! It's very weird and... different. In a good way!

Wow I didn't know the mascot was based off that. That's tight. I always thought he was Link or something...

1943 beat 1942 hands down , it doesn't lag like 42.

I just beat Kirby's Adventure & Mutant Virus the other day. I had never plyed through either and enjoyed them both. Mutat Virus is one of those games with very little ingeniuity, but still came out decent.

I would say Spy vs Spy. It is an epic 2 player game

almost anything with spy in the title has been good. maybe they'll make a SPY Girls next, ha ha Voyeur game. Spy vs spy, spy hunter. nothing better.

I know most people seem to hate these games (especially the difficulty) but I personally love the first two NES Simpsons games.

Also, I think Zelda 2's graphics are quite underrated.

Am I the only one here who prefers Zelda 2 over the first? Oh, and,

No, there's plenty of people who agree with you and it's been the subject of a few threads.

As far as the Simpson's games go, for me the difficulty wasn't all that high, but they were just a little on the poorly executed side. Sloppy controls hurt more than anything.

Someone said in an earlier post.... I think it was wizard, that every nes game is good to someone out there..... Well i counter that statement with action 52.

^Action 52, and skunky beer, what more could you ask for?

Pro Sport Hockey needs added, that's what I dug this up to begin with. Game kicks ass for a NES sports game.

Actually, some of the games on Action 52 are quite fun.

And, enough beer will make any game seem fun!

Enough beer can make any woman desirable as well...but that doesn't mean you won't feel dirty in the morning

Wow, finally someone who appreciates Action 52. I've played all 52 and the only games on it I could beat were Bubblegum Rosy and Streemerz >_<

These are some of my favorites:
Ninja Kid (ive heard some people hating on it, it's awesome)
Captain Comic (yeah, I like Color Dreams)
Master Chu and the Drunken Hu
Silver Surfer (ive actually beaten this game, it's really fun once you memorize it)

Captain Comic and Master Chu are two of CD's best! Silver Surfer is pretty sweet but it's hard as fuck (I suck at shooters). People seem to hate some of my personal faves pretty hard...

Superman - Should've been titled SD Superman, but whatever. People hate on the controls, but it's not so bad once you get used to how jumping works. Pretty easy to beat after that's figured out, it's easy to get lost but it's such a small world that you find your way eventually.
Conan - I know exactly why people hate this, but for some reason I still enjoy the shit out of it. Also, I'm one of a very small number of people who has beaten it legit (no Game Genie or other cheats, finished on my NES console with no outside aid). Once you get used to how it works, it's not so bad.
Wizardry: The Knight of Diamonds - One of my faves from childhood (well, teenager-hood anyway). I was always into RPGs, but when I snagged this one I couldn't stop playing it. Considering I finished it multiple times without any sort of outside aid (didn't get the internet until '04, and I got the mail-in guide in '08), it says something about the time I've spent in it. Hell, I can navigate almost the entire game without even looking at the maps I made (which I've kept since I got the game in '95 or '96). Just a full-on masterpiece.
The Punisher - Most people write it off simply based on LJN's name on it, but it's probably the single best comic-to-game adaptation until at least the 16 bit era. It's true to it's source material and a fun game all around. Also helps that it's tough as balls until you've played it to death...the Kingpin is one of the most difficult bosses I've ever faced in ANY game, period. That said, I've gotten good enough to rack up many more lives than I actually require to kill his ass
Dr. Chaos - A recent addition to the list, I played it through a couple months back and absolutely loved the game. It's just hard enough, and just open-ended enough, and just fun enough to keep you entertained. The hard part is finding which paths to take in which order, but it's not too tough to figure out - if you're too weak for a given tunnel, or can't pass a certain point, you need something from elsewhere in the game in order to advance. Plus the intro screen is EPIC! Not the best game ever, but it's got it's charm and definitely worth playing through.

I want to have your babies!
Superman is one of my favorite games on the NES. I absolutely love it!

That's gotta be the first time someone said they wanted to have my babies...well, the first time a female said it anyway
