super mario bros was the first game i ever played and still one of my fav though im not that big on the NES these days guess it hasnt aged well hehe most games are pretty bad and the system doesnt work well

its all about the sega master system, 8 bit graphics!! i dont really remember many old sega master system titles but for its time it was way ahead of the NES - though the NES is still decent :>

Meh, I was never into Sega. Through those first years, NES/SNES holds the title for most awesome games/graphics.

I never had Master System, but I have a Genesis still. Second best 2d console.

Sonic FTW!!!!

Dreamcast was truly amazing. Xbox 360 in the 64 era.

But yes, I have a super NES and I grew up on it, don't play it much anymore but it was so fun when I did. I wish there was starcraft for it, do you think it could handle something like that?

I got addicted to games because of the NES. I can still remember the very first game I've ever bought with my own money (I was a paperboy!); Metroid. Not a bad first choice, eh?

I still rank the NES and SNES as the two top game systems of all time. While current day graphics and video can certainly pull you into the feel of a game more, the gameplay of MANY of them is so similar that it all gets old after a while. There are FEW true side-scrollers anymore (Though I'm loving Super Paper Mario) and that eliminates the game style that produced nearly all the classics of the NES/SNES generation. Contra, Mario, Gradius, Mega Man, Metroid, Zelda - these games have all progressed into the 3D world, and while they've created great games in 3D, they lack the same special "feel" that those games had when they were a part of the side-scrolling or overhead genre.

While I enjoy the Metroid Prime games, I wish they'd make a side-scrolling Metroid again. They could still make it with polygonal graphics and all that, but have it in a side-scrolling format (kinda like those several levels of Super Smash Bros Melee). Same for Castlevania. Symphony of the Night proved without a shadow of a doubt that you don't have to be 3D to be an awesome game.

Problem is that for the better half of the general public, graphics make and break games for them.

And so I guess I'll cling to my old cartridges and keep blowing into them until the day I die!
