Top 10 Nintendo NES Games

[BWSpahic]

Kirby's Adventure kinda reminds me of Mr. Gimmick:)

[SirenoftheVoid]

i'd imagine the original Final Fantasy was much more fun to play if you played it back when it was released.i didn't get that chance,i only played it last year.i was more of an SNES player.that said,Mario Bros.3 deserves to be on any top 10 nes game list

[DarkWolf3399]

Oh cool! :D I was just playing Castlevania 3, but it pissed me off, so I left and went on youtube.

[playstationwii23]

my top 10 10.castlevania III 9.metal gear 8.final fantasy 7.contra/ninja gaiden 6.tetris 5.donkey kong 4.mega man II 3.metroid 2.the legend of zelda 1.super mario bros 3

2. Final Mission

1. Magician

[SupermarioDEs]

[EliroX904]

My favorite will always be MM3

[PunaniJohnny]

lol im not much of a final fantasy fan, but that one just looked so boring

[BillCane2011]

OK. So my Top10: 10. Kickle Cubicle 9. Ice Climber 8.The Legend of Zelda 7. Kid Icarus 6. Super Mario Bros.3 5. Castlevania 4. Metroid 3. Gradius 2. Duck Tales 1. Mega Man II.

[ImpossibleQuiz1]

You are right, Super Mario Bros. 3 IS the best NES game!

[VGTES]

está faltando alguns

ninja gaiden

double dragon

rock man 3

[tizilajizones]

there is really no competition to an old school mario game!

[mogiethefirst]

i love zelda 2 but no zelda 1 it's by far better, also i really love mario 1 too there should also be contra too as well and dragon warrior is a great game but other then being a lead on for jrpgs it's kind of bad with 9 hours of lvl grinding dw 3/4 is much better, over all i have to say this list is bad

[SuperAwesomeTiago]

DAMN.I SURE WASEN'T EXPECTING NUMBER ONE.TOTALLY DIFFERENT FROM THE OTHER TOP 10 NES GAMES LISTS.

WE ALL LOVE BEING SHEEP.

[awegweg1]

@zealotofshadows fuck you

[YXYCHAOSxECHO]

10- i love how you have castlevania III and use castlevania I music

9- original yet generic

8- should be in top 5

7- no comment

6- no comment

5- should be in top 3

4- no comment

3- no comment

2- should be #1

1- let's be original in these top 10s.

[KirbyY15]

what? a different list? no way... i agree with this

[LucidDreams84]

I have to agree with what everyone is saying. Why would we want game developers to make something different and unique. Screw that, just make the same rehashed shit please.

[Ben57599]

OMG THS SUCKS HYDLIDE ITS SHIT

[cliffemall666]

I've played through both nes zelda games and can honestly say I enjoyed the original much better

[jeffrockst123]

You said nintendo nes so that's nintendo nintendo entertanment system

[Ryuzekia]

Ok i have to admit zelda 2 rocked and SMB 3 deserves #1

[Blacksun1942]

Some choices debatable, but solid list. It's amazing that the later Metal Gear games were so good that younger gamers forget the ORIGINAL which was a really GREAT game.

[encidgl00]

you're top ten games suck balls.

[molitva2007]

You used some images from megaman 1 :) Good top! check out my top nes on my channel.

[Nightowljrm]

*gasp* A very different list! (Except #1). Can't say I entirely agree, but that's why it's YOUR top 10. However, I commend you for being different, especially with Zelda 2. I do agree that it is a very under-rated game. Just because it's unique from the series, doesn't mean it's BAD. (Just like Castlevania II! Except newer games from SoTN and onward, excluding a few others like Lords of Shadow, follow the same formula, but for the NES, it was different).

[FR3AK1NG91]

I am looking for a game .. can do the elevator is so similar action in rooms where you and make things must. It is non easy. I hope that was accurate enough thx in advance please send me a pm to me if anyone has any idea what game I mean

[MacNDocTKO]

some other classics....mike tyson's punch out, super mario bros, bionic commando, ninja gaiden, castlevania, the legend of zelda, blaster master, etc etc etc.

[thor21476]

@MacNDocTKO punch out was classic.

[TheDoomPig]

First Zelda game was better than the second, I thought the first Castlevania was better than the third, though it is your opinion and I don't hate it, I'm just saying mine.

[MrHoihoihoi1]

all the nes games are fucking HORRIBLE!!!!!

they suck so bad

[MugenHeadNinja]

@MrHoihoihoi1 wow your a retard arnt you how old or you little kid its past your bed time grow the fuck up and start thinking NES games arnt gonna be as good graphic (and maybe even gameplay wise) than consoles these days this was made in the late 80-90s

[MrHoihoihoi1]

@MugenHeadNinja erm you wanna hear something

i can't even remember i post this comment

and i didn't even wanna post this comment

really...i think i wanted to write another comment but i don't know how this came

i really love nes games from zelda to mario so it's fucking weird i posted this comment

[kurojin97]

eww....that rocked-out metroid theme was garbage....did they put that on a later game or something??? cuz that was a major failure.

[baigandine]

Zelda II sucks for the single reason that wherever you die you have to go back to the stupid temple and retread the whole world.

[zhero12345]

One thing bothers me.

The metal gear that you showed it's the sega version why because nitendo's version you din't even faced metal gear you faced a computer that controls the metal gear.

but great job

[ass1h]

Nothing wrong with this list

[artur516]

terrible games imo

[TeamMario40934]

My Top 10 would have Mega Man 3 and Mike Tyson's Punch out. I was expecting to see those because they are really good. Other than that, it was a good list ecxept you underrated Kirby's Adventure and overrated Mega Man 2 and Final Fantsy. Remember, that's just my opinion.

[daarsonist713]

why didnt u but the title of the game up as well i didnt recognize a couple of them

[ilovecardj]

I agree with this list alot more then say your n64 list. Goldeneye will always be the best game on the system, and is still played competitively to this day.

but besides this, my major gripe was you used metal gear footage from the msx version, not the NES version. not the same game. Glad you had zelda 2 over zelda 1. zelda 2 might be my favorite game on the nes, along with guardian legend.

[prokletidaste]

MY: 10.Castlevania 3 - Dracula's Curse 9.Final Fantasy 8.Metroid 7.Ninja Gaiden 6.Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3 - The Manhattan Project 5.Tetris 4.Mega Man 2 3.The Legend Of Zelda 2.Contra 1.Super Mario Bros 3

[Link8150]

My top 10 10 Frontline 09 Adventure of Link 08 Kid Icarus 07 Mega Man 2 06 Super Mario Bros 05 Metroid 04 Metal Gear 03 Final Fantasy 02 Super Mario Bros 3 01 The Legend of Zelda

[Cynic667]

You seriously should give the people credit when you use their music, for example the MetroidMetal-Guy...

[OldVikingSchool]

Isnt that MGS from PC engine/MSX?

[arthur5135]

I love zelda for nes, brings memories ;]

[Nathanrules20]

why not super mario bros original

it is much better than mario 3

[LMSilva7]

My favorite games of nes : Getsufuu Maden , Battletoads and Ninja Gaiden III .

[paulio4259]

even tho im not a fan of zelda ii i was kinda glad to see it on your list because its so overshadowed by the first zelda and also it was a huge pioneer in the action rpg genre and even tho i wouldve luiked to see contra ninja gaiden and mike tysons punch out but your list was still good

[colpetne]

i might have to post my top 10 i would include the original super mario bros and original zelda and kid icarus

[BobbyFischer0000]

What, no Kid Icarus, Mike Tyson's Punch out, Dodge Ball, Faxanadu, or Double Dragon?

Not a bad list,,,

[xwrew3]

nice top 10 5/5

[Kennyrules101]

Hey u know that at 5:55 that's from Magaman 1. I know because of the points system and i have both games! :)

[1PSPfan89]

Super Mario and Megaman games, the best games ever made

[Exxile400]

this is a little bit far behind my time, I can go far back as SNES but I haven't played enough NES games to have a top ten.

[YewTewbPewp]

What the fuck? Zelda II but not Zelda I? This review is messed up man.

[TheTop10s]

Zelda 1 is crazy over rated. Zelda II is a fantastic game that combined platforming and roleplay. It's also a bigger game and has more action.

[atza20]

thats not the nes metal gear because that is the good version for msx get it right

[TheTop10s]

Correction, the USA port of metal gear wasn't good. Don't rely on the AVGN for your information. Get it right.

[deguimerautube]

@TheTop10s Wow, you're an asshole... AVGN actually has a lot of background on the things he knows... and he sure as hell wouldn't put another console version of MGS into an NES top 10 list. Chair jockey.

[TheTop10s]

@deguimerautube There is nothing wrong with the game. It was the converters that fucked up the NA release. But I guess I'm an ass hole for liking a game. Go eat some more of that spoon-fed bullshit you love slurping up from video bloggers. Grow the fuck up. Thanks.

[Kill3rCommando]

Batman?

Contra (aka Probotector)?

Snake Rattle & Roll?

Cobra Triangle?

[TheTop10s]

Batman is a great game and I was debating whether or not to put it in at 10th, the rest of the games I think are fairly average to be honest.

[deguimerautube]

@TheTop10s Contra is not average, it was the most free moving/firing based game created for the NES.

[TheTop10s]

@deguimerautube I think I'll avoid the opinion of someone who doesn't even know the correct classification of the game they're trying to defend. Fucking noobs.

[CMOODO]

@TheTop10s haha my list is similar to yours 10 Super Mario 9Castlevania 3 8 Contra 7 Battletoads 6 Kirbys Adventure 5 Metriod 4 Zelda II 3 Castlevania 2 Mega Man 2 1 Mario 3

[thor21476]

@TheTop10s @TheTop10s ok using a word like noobs just sinks you. your top ten didnt even include the top selling game of all time, now youre calling someone a noob like a 12 year old would because they dont study up on nes classification. get real.

[leefford]

Can't say I agree with Zelda 2, didn't really do it for me, and was a little shocked that Double Dragon, Contra, Ninja Gaiden 2 or Tetris weren't on the list (plus I'm an avid fanboy of River City Ransom) but I know this is your top ten and I agree with most of your decisions... maybe a top 15 or 20 is in order in the future? :)

[TheTop10s]

I was actually thinking of doing a compilation video from all the consoles called Honorable Mentions. Putting in the games that didn't quite make it.

[leefford]

Do it, would love to see it

[09876yoshiyoshi]

HEY DUDE stop putting mario games not first thier awesome but i know you did a good job with this one but wheres mario bros. and donkey kong they were american classics CLASSICS

[getsallad]

Do you choose only one game from each franchise? Because honestly, I think at least one more Mega Man game deserves to be there. Well, I don't 100% agree with your list anyway, but places 1 and 2 are definitely correct.

[genx1973]

Good list even if i am not much into RPG games but i am surprised that contra, L.O.Z or the original castlevania didn't make the list. And Mario 3 as the best game is a very good choice knowing that the game play and graphics are present. Bravo. Pro Wrestling would have made my top 20 list. Its a game that made me break my first NES but it was fun nonetheless.

[g1Chase357]

10. Tetris

9. Metroid

8. River City Ransom

7. The Legend of Zelda

6. Journey to Silius

5. Super Mario Bros. 3

4. Super C

3. Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse

2. Ninja Gaiden

1. Mega Man 2

[LearnToBreakdance]

um, Contra?

[Blahblah6767676]

yay! Kirby!

[bsharp2222]

Great List :)

You should do a Sega Genesis list

[1in6win]

Kid Icarus? I love that game so much. I play it more than Super Mario 3.

[Voliko1]

I love how so many people are fed bullshit that zelda 2 sucks and they won't even play it

[TheTop10s]

Thank you. At least someone had the balls to say it.

[Voliko1]

i actually liked zelda 2 more than the original, it is simply better

[Crowster12781]

It has nothing to do with me saving face. The fact is you were rude to me first in response to my op, of couse a snob like you probably doesn't see it that way. Doesn't matter anyway, I won't read another one of your responses because you're just an arogant ass, and I won't be watching any of your videos again. Your opinon,to me, ranks somwhere along the lines of the opinion of the smartest kid with down syndrome.

I'm done waisting my time with you.

[TheTop10s]

So I'm a few pegs above yourself then? It's good that you can admit that. It's a rare sight to see when someone does that.

[Crowster12781]

I see now that you're just an fucking asshole who believes that his views are the end all be all, I've looked through these comments and I see a trend here, anyone who disagres with you is a noob or a douche. Simple fact, you're just a fucking asshole who thinks he knows eveyrthing about video games. The only douche around here is you, grow up and learn to take critisim, fuckstick.

[TheTop10s]

Lol. And I'm sure that you believe that. It's nothing to do with the fact you realized you were being a dick and are keeping up the act to save face.

[Pixeltendo]

I usually don't post on these videos. but damn. You're by the far the whiniest idiot I've seen all week. you come to this guys channel (and yes, you did) try and make out his opinion was wrong. How the fuck can an opinion be wrong? All he was doing was defending himself from some asshole who think he's somehow better because had to mow lawns n the ghetto to get his gaming fix.

[Crowster12781]

At no point when I offered my opinion was I rude, I made a statement that my list was diffent from yours and you responded by being an asshole and calling me a noob.

[TheTop10s]

Um....."so don't call me a noob just becuase you'er some 13 year old kid who has only played these on nesticle. "

Yea, that isn't rude at all!

[Crowster12781]

First off, is there a reason when you act like like a jerk when someone offers their opinion? It isn't necessary, top ten lists should be discussed and people have the right to their opinions.

Second, I played these games when they were released, I bought a nintendo in 1985, I mowed lawns and washed dishes to but a 50-60 dollar video game, I HAVE played all these games, so don't call me a noob just becuase you'er some 13 year old kid who has only played these on nesticle.

[TheTop10s]

You're exactly the reason. After more than a thousand comments on videos of people coming in an saying "ololo ur wrong moron this should be on the list" do you really think I want to here your shit if you aren't going to be polite? No. You don't even consider that, because you're a brain dead asshole.

Oh, and I'm 21 and grew up on the NES.

Douche.

[cbarone95]

u should go die u fool how the fuck did zelda 2 which sucks big cok u fuck get on there and the best game ever the original zelda u should die again i dont give a shit about mario but my boy link go fuck yourself

[TheTop10s]

Open up a new tab, go to Google, search "The English Dictionary," then come back and make a commet, because I can't even read what the fuck you've put.

What a retard.

[Yankeeplaya20]

dude come on now i think this was completly deliberate y in the name of all thats konami is neither contra nor the original zelda on there i think u really should dust off the old nes and rething your list u moron

[TheTop10s]

Contra is over rated dribble, and the original Zelda is a good game but with terrible pacing.

I suggest you whip off the nostalgia goggles and actually go and play some games n00b.

[Crowster12781]

The only two real complaints I have are, Zelda 2 is no where near as good as the original and the u.s. port of metal gear sucked.

I would have put Zelda, Duck Tales or maybe contra in there instead.

[TheTop10s]

Please read the previous few comments.

[Crowster12781]

personally I think 4 was the best dragon warrior untill Cursed King came out.

[ulrich5000]

the usa metal gear sucks, i have the mgs subsistance, it includes thee japan original translated to english, it's a lot better

[TheTop10s]

It is, but if I showed the Japanese footage a lot of people would go "wtf is this shit?" Sometimes you have to make leeway for people who aren't as educated.

[ulrich5000]

lmao, ok, gotcha

[allanator1990]

Aww, no Bubble Bobble or Contra?

[TheTop10s]

I love Bubble Bobble. Will probably be in my Mastersystem top 10. If I ever get around to it.

[ulrich5000]

do u like the sonic the hedgehog game for mastersystem/gamegear?

[FiaccoBros]

awesome list, megaman 2 is one of my all time favs, but the only other megaman title i have for nes is megaman 6, but im sure mm 2 is the best for nes

[TheTop10s]

Megaman 3 is also very good.

[chicagodeep]

Legend Of Zelda was and still is a true masterpiece. I played it again recently and it was just awsome.

Another game I couldn't imagine not to be in my top 10 is SMB. So simple, yet so perfect.

Of course, everyone's top 10 is different :)

[Th3Skull3r]

hmm I found zelda 1 much more fun than zelda 2, especially with the ability to save. Oh well, Mario 3 is the KING of the NES.

[MegaSlimes]

how the fuck is legend of zelda not in here

[TheTop10s]

Weakest game in the franchise, and doing something first isn't the same as doing it the best.

[PaciFistProductions]

i don't mean to be a dick or anything, but then why is metal gear on there? the first one was terrible compared to the next ones

and legend of zelda was way better than the first metal gear

[classicgamer14]

Wow great list heres mine. 10.Kid Icarus 9.Karnov 8.Super Mario bros 2 7.Kirby's Adventure 6.Castlevania 5.Paperboy 4.Maniac Mansion 3.Monster Party 2.Super Mario Bros 2 1.Werewolf the last warrior Now I know what your thinking (woah mario bros 3 isint his top wtf?!) I just thought werewolf the last warrior had this charm that I always liked. Its a challenge dont get me wrong. but when you get used to the gameplay its a great game haha.

[TheTop10s]

Props for Maniac Mansion and Lost Levels.

.....lol paperboy.

[oldGanon]

watch my list

[TheTop10s]

If you want more people to view it, post it as a video response here.

[Phenomon4life]

What is The Metroid Song Called?

[GamePlayer20096]

10:Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse

9:The Legend of Zelda

8:Super Mario Bros

7:Duck Hunt (That Dog!)

6:MegaMan2

5:Kid Icarus

4:Mike Tyson Punch Out

3:MegaMan

2: Kirbys Adventure

1:Super Mario Bros 3

[Phenomon4life]

Whats the Difference between Punch out and Mike Tyson Punch Out?

[GamePlayer20096]

I have no Clue really

[nerrej]

Mike Tyson.

[SuperBlahmaster]

Little Nemo? It looks... good... weird. Hate the movie because it is really annoying.

[assgoblin2damax]

Little Nemo was badass. The NES is always the hardest system for me to pick the top games from. Too many great games. SMB3 will still always be #1 on any list I would make. I can't disagree with any on this list. Honorable mentions for me would be "The Guardian Legend" and "Battletoads" (sentimental choice).

[kickmastergd]

Finally a top 10 NES,who have Castlevania III instead of Castlevania Here is my Top 10 10 - Kick Master 9- Duck Tales 2 8- Metroid 7- The Legend of Zelda 6- Castlevania III 5- Megaman 2 4- Final Fantasy 3- Kirby Adventure 2- Metal Gear 1- Super Mario Bros 3 ah great list,i believe tha i am the only one who liker Kick Master five stars

[Happytreefriendsfan3]

you get 3/5 because you are missing the original legend of zelda

[TheTop10s]

It's an over rated game. Severely over rated.

[agius123456]

what was the song at the begining of metroid ?

[SeppeD]

little nemeo was fantastic!

[dudenrasse]

Very good list, but the mega man 2 and castlevania 3 music is not in the game (the megaman music is a remake and the castlevania 3 song is from castlevania 1) but i give it a five

[redmario7]

10. Super Mario Bros.

9. Final Fantasy

8. Balloon Fight

7. R.C. Pro Am 1/2

6. Metroid

5. Ice Climber

4. Donkey Kong 3

3. Adventures of Lolo 3

2. Kirby's Adventure

1. Super Mario Bros. 3

[Shadowserg]

All top except Castlevania sucks..

[sw3d3nlol]

ff sucks

[LimeInTheCoconut21]

I would have thought you would have included the original zelda game for the introduction of the save feature.

[TheTop10s]

I can understand where you're coming from, but I don't think a game doing something first makes it the best. If another game comes a long a few years later and refines a certain aspect or process, to me that is the better game.

[cypphherx]

Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse was to hard for me and smb3 should be on everyone's top ten.

[doomnationalist]

I love SMB 3 but I vote for SMB 1 for originality

[TheCommodore64Player]

very good editing. I think the #1 NES game is on almost everbody's list SMB3 ;)

[riise254]

10.Contra

9.Super Mario Bros. 2

8.Megaman 2

7.Metriod

6.Super Mario Bros.

5.LoZ 2 :Adventure Of Link

4.Final Fantasy

3.LoZ

2.Castlevania

1.Super Mario Bros. 3

[starsoldier1]

Good picks. Some of these are my favourites too.

[LeeStudios815]

ya mario has got to b 1... & how do u turn into a statue wit takooni?

[Xyfar]

Pretty good top 10, I would rate Final fantasy 1 over Mario 3, but that's my love for RPGs speaking. I also agree with you putting Zelda 2 over Zelda 1. Same with Megaman 2 over Megaman.

[kevinXezZ]

5.10, the character thats most down, hes in kingdom hearts 2 too lmao:D^^

Great video ;P

[Shadsilvson11]

Now I know this is just your opinion but Metal Gear over Contra? That's just taking the piss.

[TheTop10s]

If you ignore all the things that they fucked up with North American localization, it's one of the defining moments of gaming.

[Shadsilvson11]

I suppose.

[arentanynamesleft]

Man i forgot all about Little Nemo. Classic.

[Triforceseeker]

Zelda 2?!?!

[derhange]

uhh..the first mario....and punch out maybe...kung fu....i do respect the mario...the zelda

[dewanamatt1]

99% of every game in all of his lists fall into the "Platform" category.  You bias child. These lists blow ass

[TheTop10s]

99% of the NES library falls into the platform category you retard. Sorry for actually representing the consoles content.

[Andrzej560]

where's Die Hard? PacMan? MegaMan? Contra?

[TheTop10s]

Megaman 2 > Megaman.

Die hard sucks balls.

Contra = meh, over rated.

Pacman was good in the Atari days, but has been beat by pretty much every game ever made since.

[Andrzej560]

Eh, its your Rating.

Contra is Great Game

Die Hard is great Game, but he have "low graphic"

Where's Goal3 :P

Kirby have great music :P

[dewanamatt1]

contra overrated? wow you are a royal idiot

[TheTop10s]

You don't like the truth do you? lol.

[petoit69]

top10's doesn't cater to sheeple, sorry

[Shadsilvson11]

Die Hard? The one AVGN reviewed? You're not serious are you?

[Andrzej560]

AVGN? What's that?

This Movie have name "Top 10 Nintendo NES Games" not "My top 10 Nintendo NES Games"

Where's Tetris, ChipDale2, Duck Tales, Darkwing Duck, Duck Hunt, Kunio Kun no Nekketsu Soccer League, Zelda1, Mario1,Die Hard, Contra, Battletoads... This list sucks ball

[Shadsilvson11]

Angry Video Game nerd. Besides there's enough classic NES games to fill a top 50 list. So of course not all of those games are going to make it.

[TheTop10s]

So if it were up to you this list would be full of the same franchises over and over? I think your list would suck epic amounts of dick.

[Andrzej560]

Go to school moron, and suck your pussy.

Please look to "your" "best list" again

[TheTop10s]

Judging by your comment, I'm guessing your parents are brother and sister. This is The Top 10 Nintendo NES Games. This video is on my account. Anyone with the correct amount of chromosomes would realize that this is my opinion.

Faggot.

[Andrzej560]

Ok man, is your opinion, your video, not really top ten.

Faggot

[TheTop10s]

lol. You got counter pwnd. Accept your own idiocy.

[badassbill123]

.....You don't know what AVGN is? You sir are a joke to retro gaming.

[reidawg312]

Oh dude... Zelda 2? That was horrible.

[TheTop10s]

That's just because you suck at it.

[JunmaiShu]

Nice list, I'll make it a point to watch the rest of your vids. I'd personally put the original LOZ in there instead of 2, and DW3 instead of the original. Kid Icarus & Mike Tyson's Punch Out would also make my list.

Man it would be hard to compile such a list. There were so many good NES games. Worthy candidates will get left out no matter what. People need to realize that and respect people's "opinions".

[elvicholudo]

in my opinion my favorite game is Castlevania III i remember playing it for ours

[NetPlayPlayers]

Crappy vids you got all the games u got aint in order

[TheTop10s]

Actually they're perfect. You need to take off your nostalgia goggles.
