Everyone knows the classic games that everyone loves. So I will name my top 5 games that are under rated.
Solar Jetman
Jackal
Heavy Barrel
Ultimate Stuntman
Image Fight

Are they the best games for the NES probably not but they are all great titles that you don't hear many people talk about that much.

My mantra, as worded by SamSpade on 06/12/12:
I don't resell to fund my collection, I don't treat this hobby like a second job, I don't care if my collection is worth ten bucks or ten thousand because I never plan on selling it. Seriously, what does the value have to do with anything if you never plan on selling? Speculation doesn't mean jack shit to me at this point, I just want to play my nes games...

Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me, "You're next." They stopped after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.
