1st runner up in my #NESTop25 features the G.O.A.T of #VideoGames and the game that everyone had, it’s the original #SuperMarioBros. I’ve always enjoyed this game, but my interest of it skyrocketed when #SuperMarioBros released for a limited time 5 years ago ( #Nintendo, please bring it back)! #NES

The bronze medal of my #NESTop25 actually came in a gold cartridge. #TheLegendOfZelda created a legacy and a standard for adventure games. I didn’t finish this until I was an adult, but the fact I went back and played should say something. #Link, #Zelda, and #Ganon are iconic. #Nintendo #VideoGames

Before we unveil the top 3 games on the #NESTop25, we watned to share some honorable mentions that didn’t make the lists.
1st, I screwed up and thought I could only have one #MegaMan game on the list. The sequel would be top 15 without question… the blue bomber deserves more love than I gave…

Number 4 on my #NESTop25 blew everyone’s mind in 90’s. #SuperMarioBros3 being feature in the “Wizard” film was a big deal… and for good reason. A vast improvement in graphic and features from the #SuperMarioBros series, it’s hard not to love… somehow, still hard too. #Videogames #Nintendo #Mario

Number 5 on my #NESTop25 is the most underrated #NES #videogame, #Startropics. This game had a fun story, awesome gameplay, lots of challenge, some fun graphics, loads of content, and a map that had to be in water for a secret code! I’m still sad #Nintendo hasn’t done more with this IP…

The Blue Bomber FINALLY shows up on my #NESTop25 at number 6 (honestly should have shown up sooner, too). This is peak #MegaMan in my view. This is when sliding first showed up along with Proto Man, adding to an already fun series. Classic gameplay + fun characters = winning! #VideoGames #Nintendo

Lucky number 7 on my #NESTop25 is #Metroid. This game raised a high bar for #NES and all #videogames action plaformers. Ton of content, challenge, and even graphics considering this is from the 1980’s. The story was just the beginning of a multi decade fascination with Metroids and Samus! #Nintendo

Just because a game is easier doesn’t mean it’s not fun. Number 8 on my #NESTop25 is a great example of that. #KirbysAdventure is unique, cute, and fun! After the Game Boy original, this was a huge upgrade that was fun to work through and a spark in a very fun series! #Nintendo #VideoGames #Kirby

The doctor is in at number 9 on my #NESTop25. #DrMario is a revolutionary puzzle game with fun music and new mechanic. The multiplayer mode is lots of fun and can be very competitive! I was never great, but have enjoyed the game through the year with other peeps! #Mario #VideoGames #Nintendo

Number 10 of my #NESTop25 goes to #Excitebike. I loved being able to build courses and trying to be the time records… I hated over heating and the sound that came with it… still, fun game with find memories, just wish more would have happened with the series. #Nintendo #VideoGames #NES

Another break from the #NESTop25 to share some top NES memories.
Somehow, I remember the first video game I ever rented was Double Dribble… and though I would later appreciate its greatness later, I remember being so excited to play and having fun learning… I miss game rentals….

Clearing out the bottom 15 of my #NESTop25 at number 11 is #Tetris. Sure, this game really picked up steam with the Game Boy, but gotta show love to the original. I play Tetris 99 most nights for a quick moment of fun and challenge, showing the lasting impact of this one! #NES #VideoGames #Nintendo

I mentioned Disney had a slew of great #NES TV syndication games earlier in my #NESTop25, and at number 12, #Ducktales is the cream of the crop. This Capcom game was initially a surprise as how great it was, but when the game had some Mega Man influence, it makes sense. #VideoGames #Nintendo

I know Chris had the original on his #NESTop25, but I have #TecmoSuperBowl at number 13 on mine. Twice as many play options than the original, real teams/players, multiple season play, and still with the original #NES #Tecmo charm? Count me in! #Nintendo #VideoGames

Number 14 on my #NESTop25 is a version of the #SuperMarioBros. series I would have loved to see more of on the #NES, and that’s #SuperMarioBros2. I LOVED the idea of playing as Toad (and peach) and that the objective wasn’t a damsel in distress. #Nintendo got there eventually… #Mario #VideoGames

Now back to the show.
Number 15 of my #NESTop25 is an arcade port that blew my prepubescent mind. #TeenageMutantNinjaTurtlesTheArcadeGame in my house?! Sure, it wasn’t as good as the arcade, but it was awesome to play at home without pumping quarters in the machine. #Nintendo #VideoGames

Speaking of #NintendoHard, taking the day off from the #NESTop25 to talk about the hardest of #NES games. The first one that comes to mind is the first/original #TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles. The game itself was difficult (especially for the 8 year olds we were), especially the underwater level…

Number 16 of my #NESTop25 might have the best music of any NES game (including the pause music). #Battletoads was TMNT on drugs… and I liked it. Yeah, this is a #NintendoHard game no doubt, but the animation, story, and gameplay was fun! Need to play more in the series now. #Nintendo #VideoGames

Some might saying having #Contra as number 17 on my #NESTop25 is too low, and for good reason. This the THE game the #Konami was for! This game actually has decent graphics for being at the beginning of the #NES lifecycle, and though the game play was basic, it was fun! #Nintendo #VideoGames

Watch out! Number 18 on my #NESTop25 is the arcade classic #Paperboy. This game is so silly and quirky, and I love it! Another game that just keeps going (I think), it was always fun to attempt to get every house to subscribe and “live” long enough to succeed! #NES #Nintendo #VideoGames

Number 19 on my #NESTop25 might be a little high, but I remember enjoying #Jaws on the #NES quite a bit. I’m glad my #Nintendo still works and I have this game, because I want to play it again see if I can actually figure out how to complete and defeat the great white shark! #VideoGames

Back to the regularly scheduled program, number 20 of my #NESTop25 goes to #ChipNDale #RescueRangers. #Disney had a slew of #NES games from their syndicated TV shows, most of them pretty good… and this isn’t even the best one. Fun story, decent graphics, good control… #Winning! #Nintendo #VideoGames

There can’t be great games without bad games, so today, we’re taking a break from the #NESTop25 to share some of the worse #NES games (in our opinion) to ever released. Feel free to tell us if there are some bad #Nintendo #VideoGames we miss…

Numero 21 on the #NESTop25 is the OG #DonkeyKong. Bringing an arcade favorite to the home console is something that is still appreciated today. And though this game doesn’t have a lot of depth, it’s really blossomed into a fantastic franchise (Bananza anyone?)! #Nintendo #VideoGames

#LifeForce (or “Salamander” in Japan) is the 22nd entry to my #NESTop25. Between me and my neighbors, we rented this game more times than any other… and being 8-10 years old, we never finished it, but boy did we try. Classic space shooter. I should try again now that I’m older… #Nintendo #VideoGames
