Exc Exc I could keep listing stuff, but this list should give you a great start.
PS. A few weeks ago I made a more complete list(still was missing some great games I'm sure), but that post took forever to make, so I suggest looking up some past NES threads(I think it was the thread where the NES put the SMS in its place if I remember correctly).

mighty final fight
Ufouria / Hebereke is a great game, rarely mentioned. Never released in the US though and pricey. (It's on the Wii VC here.)
Other good games: Little Samson, Kid Icarus, Marios, Tetris, Kirby. And of course HOLY DIVER...
I was going to mention that one, but didn't because I wanted to avoid encouraging more people to look for it on eBay. Ha. Hebereke and Gimmick are also both on Sunsoft Memorial Collection Vol.6 for Playstation, that's where I had the pleasure of playing them.Quote:
