I think Fire Emblem 1 holds up well
>>743238876Saw mangs playthrough it. It just needs a few tweaks and it would be good.
>>743238350I can't do NES, SNES is the furthest back I can go.
>>743240220Why did you watch a playthrough for a game you haven’t played yourself
I want to see cool stuff happen, not do it myself.
>>743238350>A christian crossthat's very problematic

>>743241345CRTDEITIES... I knvvl
>>743238350Akumajou Densetsu > CV3
>>743238350OP you have good intentions but please do NOT try and bring this /v/ modern game sloppa faggots to retro games, we don't need any more normie faggots like the porn addicted losers on this board infesting our hobby.
>>743238350Sure, James
>>743238350>Play NES videogames, you assholeWOW, I guess I have to do it know.
>>743240279>WAAAAAHHH IT'S TOO OLDAre you 10?
>>743241720I'd like a little more than 56 colors alright excuse me for having preferences.
>>743241864>proceeds to play brown and bloom piss filter slop
I never liked NES games despite the NES being my first console. I think video games didn't really get good until the SNES and the Genesis. Gameboy games were even more fun than NES games. NES games to me always felt annoying and tedious to play.
>>743238350At least post a good one
>>743242646Post an NES game that's better than Castlevania 3, faggot
>>743243987There are so many. Castlevania 1 Is a good example.
>>743238350This might sound like a zoomer statement, but the NES always seemed too dated for me, despite growing up with a SNES. The only NES game I ever played was probably SMB3 (the GBA version however).Played through the NES Final Fantasy games recently though, and was surprised how much I liked them. About 50% of the spells in FF1 are broken or actually do nothing, FF2's stat system is kind of a janky mess, and FF3's class swapping is tedious, but they're still amazing games. I was blown away with how innovative FF2 felt (for 1988).Any other good NES RPGs worth playing, that still hold up without relying on nostalgia?
there's like 5 good ones and 5 passable ones and I've already played them all
>>743244410NES is the furthest you can go (besides arcades) without it being literal clunky outdated meme like atariMegaman, castlevania, smb3, is proof that the hardware limitations are good enough to let you make excellent games that still hold up today
>>743238350nes games are dogshit outside of kirby and smb3
>>743238350The popular NES games are a must play for anyone interested in video games
>>743244410NES games can be decent, it just needs to be a fairly specific type of game. Lots of platformers are genuinely decent (arguably great if you enjoy the NES-era design specifically), grid-based games like certain types of puzzle games barely lose out of functionality, shoot em ups are alright, but anything anything of more complexity or scale grinds against literally every limitation of the platform (down to the controller not having enough inputs to make most control schemes sensible).
no thanks unc
>>743242601you have never touched a console in your life child.
I do
I love the underrated post-1990 NES library, stuff like shatterhand, bucky o'hare, megamans 4-6, Journey to Silius and various shmups (gunnac, the guardian legend, gradius 2) are damn amazing games that still look good to this day.
>>743241720roblox pickup lines
>>743238350Nah, I grew up with an Amiga and 8bit graphics that aren't on a Gameboy look like shit to me.Also a ton of NES games have severe cases of artificial difficulty because without it the game would be 1 hour long.
>>743238350I do occassionally. Just finished Legacy of the Wizard/Dragon Slayer IV not that long ago, and before that it was Crystalis/God Slayer. Fantastic games with fantastic music.
>>743249864yeah and a lot of those late-era NES games are especially modern-feeling and approachable for modern audiences. people who *think* they're filtered by NES games don't really know what they're talking about. they just don't want to play NES games because they're lame incurious people. it's a personal issue.
>>743250453It doesn't help that the most popular NES games are from the blackcover era so people looking at games from that same era but aren't called super mario bros or castlevania tend to get filtered by how primitive those games are. I respect Nintendo's OLD library, but those arcade-styled games of theirs are not easy to digest games. Love me some balloon fighter but why the fuck would i recommend such primitive game to someone wanting to play NES games over something like contra 2 (or super C) or shatterhand or megaman 4-6 when the series stopped being developed in stupidly harsh conditions (2 and 3 being rushed to shit tarnished those games in the long term)
>>743238350I do. OftenStarTropics is my favorite game and I replay it yearly
>>743244410>Any other good NES RPGs worth playing, that still hold up without relying on nostalgia?The Magic of Scheherazade, Sweet Home, and Dream Master are pretty good. The Dragon Warrior/Quest games aren't bad either if you don't mind some grinding.
>>743238350I see newer generations looking at NES games like they were those one screen, one type of gameplay only gaint pixels from Atari. We need to educate them better.
>>743251635Thanks a lot for the suggestions, I glanced at a longplay of The Magic of Scheherazade (had genuinely never heard of it before, or the other two games you listed), and it looks wonderful. The music is good, and gameplay looks very similar to FF.>Dragon QuestSuppose I should play that too, given that it's basically the progenitor to Final Fantasy
>>743250061Wait, Ninja Gaiden was a Castlevania send up all along?
>>743251726I do find it puzzling when people like 4th gen games but think 3rd gen is "too primitive." They just aren't that different.>>743252889The Magic of Scheherazade is easily one of my favorite RPGs on the console, especially if you narrow it down to ones that actually got a western release. It's still fairly unique in some ways, too, so I don't think it really feels outdated. There are some other pretty decent NES RPGs that have at least received an english translation, like the Megami Tensei games, Metal Max, and Chaos World.
>>743238350Most of them are unplayable without save states or rewind, no thanks.
>>743238350i just recently got into castlevania and i think castlevania 3 is the best game in the NES no questions asked.also im watching the show, season 1 and 2 are good but 3 is just being ok
>>743238876It holds up really well. Easy to navigate and it doesn't take forever for shit to happen, something that many 8 bit and even 16 bit strategy console games struggle with.
>>743238350I've basically played all the ones I was interested in already>the castlevanias>a few megamans I could go back and play em all I guess>Kirby's adventure>the Zeldas>the marios>Ninja Gaidens though I only beat 1>Double Dragon>Kickle Cubicle>Trog>The Goonies>DQ1, played the later versions of 2 and 3 though.>played a bit of FF1 but I prefer the PS1/PSP remake>Milon's Secret Castle>duck tales>duck huntI'm sure I'm missing a few but that was most of the stuff my family owned, plus a few I played the for the first time much later like Dragon Quest, CV3, The Ninja Gaidens and the megamans.
>>743238350I recently played the Capcom Disney collection. The games are surprisingly fun and playable, and not very frustrating at all.
I do and I recommend you all play vice project doomits pretty gud
>>743238350>Unlimited spawning enemies >KnockbackFuck those mechanics
>>743256258>Unlimited spawning enemiesjust go forward>Knockbackplay on japanese easy
>>743238350majority of the nes library are just platformers and fuck playing any of those
>>743254928Skill issue
>>743244410Megami Tensei 1 and 2, Mother 1, and Lagrange Point are also good NES RPGs.
I played Burai Fighter and killed the serpent
>>743244410>NES is le too old and clunky>enjoyed some of the most shitty, shallow, and poorly aging games on the consoleRetard
>>743254928
I do play plenty of NES games on original hardware (MiSTer FPGA).My top 10 would probably be1. Legend of Zelda2. Super Mario Bros3. Jackal4. Mega Man 45. Contra6. Castlevania 37. Super C8. Mega Man 39. Kirby's Adventure10. Castlevania 1Honorable mentions:Zelda 2Mitsume Ga TooruMega Man 1Mega Man 2Life ForceGradiusGradius 2Super Mario Bros 2JSuper Mario Bros 3Punch OutBattletoadsNinja GaidenRescue Rangers
>>743257287Obviously, problem is trying to get good at them is not fun with the limited lives, so if you're not naturally gifted from the start, the gap is too large to ever really close and the games just become a pointless and painful waste of time.
NES games are like silent movies, I'm just not bothered.
>>743241417>we don't need any more normie faggots like the porn addicted losers on this board infesting our hobby.Hey dummy, you just wake up from a coma or something?

>>743241864It's sad you're so shallow coz you're missing out on absolute top quality games.

>>743249864>underrated>lists the most overrated games on the system
>>743250084>Also a ton of NES games have severe cases of artificial difficulty because without it the game would be 1 hour long.How much longer are you going to believe this horse shit old wives tale.
>>743254928It's because you use those features that you think that in the first place.Those features stunt your skill growth, and they fuck with your perception of difficulty, making you think that games are much harder than they really are.>>743258371No the problem is you're just not playing them properly.
>>743255410You're like those anime tourists that say "i already watched everything good - cowboy bebop, akira, attack on titan".
>>743238350NES and GBA games are too limited for me to really enjoy.
>>743257945Mister is an emulator. And a scam.
>>743259556I never said I played everything good, I said I played everything I was interested in. I'm sorry your life is so hollow that you need to misread basic sentences to start internet fights over nothing.
>>743259310>>lists the most overrated games on the systemI don't remember listing Super Mario Bros 1,2 and 3, Megaman 2, Punch Out, Castlevania, Contra, The Legend of Zelda, Duck Hunt and Duck tales in my post.
>>743258371>if you're not naturally gifted from the startOr you could just hold that L and try again from the start. The magic from these old games is outdoing yourself and pass the hard parts.
>>743238350I do but only very few NES games are great and the rest are shovelware
ENTER
>>743258371Most NES games had no limited continues that was just an american thing to make games longer for rentals, enemy buffs and different unfair enemy placements too. All nes games should be played in their jap release
This game is neat
>>743259482>No the problem is you're just not playing them properly.What purpose does limited lives serve? Why can't you just try a section over and over until you manage it? Does the pressure from knowing that you have to restart the entire game if you don't do the next section in three tries give you preternatural reaction time and superpowers allowing you divine the correct solution to the trial-and-error before you've even gone through it? No it does not. It is nothing but a holdover from arcades trying to steal as many quarters from as many kids as possible, and has no business existing as the default mode in a home setting. So no, I'm not going to play the games "properly" because the way they were meant to be played was bullshit.
I just played Circus Charlie and Mappy last weekend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NFHvcxBCeb4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTjNoBkjt3w
>>743260261Based
>>743259614Retard
>>743238350I don't like sidescrollers, arcade racers, shoot em ups, sports games or RPGs.what are some NES games I'd enjoy?
>>743238350I do. In fact, I just replayed CV3 a couple weekends ago. Way more bullshit knowledge checks than I remembered. Maybe I just have less patience than I used to.
>>743263323Just play Tetris bro, that or Bubble Bobble
>>743263816I'm not big on puzzle games either....
>>743263323i'm afraid the nes has no gacha games xister
>>743263323>I dont like [the most quintessential video game genres]Why even play video games at this point
Played LoZ1 and Castlevania 2 using real hardware this summer. Plan on doing Zelda 2 and Akumajō Densetsu later this month or august.
>>743264342Just say Castlevania 3 you weeb
>>743263912Just play with Rob or the Power Glove
>>743264396>>743264342NTA but you could argue there's enough difference with how the music sounds and difficulty changes to justify distinguishing between CV3 or Akumajo Densetsu.
>>743257945Hardware emulation isn’t original hardware in any sense of the word.Also no idea how you can place a Nintendo Power game like Zelda above any tight platformer on the system but it might be related to the brain damage that induced the prior remark.
>>743263323Adventures of Lolo
>>743259184That literally is the American version.
>>743238350I actually just played Castlevania 3 the other dayfeel like there aren't many NES games I want to play left thoughprobably the Megamans, whatever Kirbys there are on the NES and maybe Contra/Ninja Gaidens if those are good but nothing more comes to mind, I guess maybe Kid Icarus tooso there are still a few but not an endless amountprobably not going for those for a few years at least though
>>743263323I think you’d relate to beat em and eat em on the 2600. The eaters obviously.
>>743244410>enjoying FF2You sick fuck.
>>743264396I don’t own a copy of Castlevania 3. I own a copy of Akumajō Densetsu.
Not a single one worth playing, games started to get decent only during the following generation.
>>743238350OP, I am old enough to remember when the NES was new. I played the shit out of it, put my time in, but I don't have a ton of nostalgia for it because in real time I watched the technology and the medium evolve year over yearAlso most people don't remember that despite the nintendo seal of approval, the NES library was mostly unfun trash that has been forgotten about by history. I think the 16-bit era is where things start reaching a balance between the limitations of the technology and the creativity to work around them. Even then, there is a reason why there is a whole sub-genre of 8 and 16 bit retro aesthetics in games where the gameplay and controls are refined from 40 years of innovation.
Punch-Out clears the rest of the NES library IMO, its graphics and gameplay have aged incredibly well.
>>743264676Actually this one looks neat, I'll check it out anon.
>>743254953>i just recently got into castlevaniaNice.>also im watching the showNot nice.
>>743257161If you don't like platformers then you're not a real gamer
>>743238350Still need to play Akumajou Densetsu. Only played CV3 US, beat it, but I'm kinda anal about using real hardware for games in this gen.
