Yes, that's right, I want you to list your 21st favorite NES game. Everyone is always listing their Top 10 or Top 20. Well, let's get away from that for a bit and let's all post our #21 favorite NES game.

PLEASE DO NOT post a long list of your favorite games. Simply post the name of the game that occupies the 21 spot.

For me, I did some serious thinking. Naming the games toward the top was easy, but around the #15 spot things started to get dicey. There are so many great games, I could include many. But as I looked at my small collection, and counted up, I think I finally managed to arrive at my 21st favorite NES game.

Adventures of Lolo. A great puzzler that's still fun to pick up and play. They don't make em like that anymore.

:)

Okay, so what is your 21st favorite NES game?

It must be a follow up to his thread on Your 7th favourite NES game.

Why stop there, ask what someone's 512th favourite NES game is. You'd really have to play a lot of crap to sort through them that far.

best fit curve . . . lolz


well, i think it's safe to say that gamer favorites tend to diverge as the number spot is increased. (i think we all knew this already)

i took the liberty of performing a best fit curve to the above data. I know it's only a few samples, but it's just for fun. :)

i assumed for #1, we have 3 favorties and for #7 we currently have 12. An exponential regression curve for this is:

Y = 2.3811 * e ^ 0.2310x

using this fit, the equation predicts there should be around 24 different games at position #10. I'll have to start another thread to verify this :)

Kabuki Quantum Fighter. You guys need to go play it. It's deceptively good, despite its ridiculous title.

My favorite NES game of 21 is Vegas Dream.

What? That wasn't the question?

HOWEVER

Bases Loaded 3 is a very close 22nd

#21: 3D Worldrunner.

Nice Space Harrier clone, but still feels a bit unfinished as far as level mechanics go.

Wally Bear is a close 21A.

Actually, that seems like a great idea for something to look into. Like I need another reason to abuse math.

finding 20 is already tough going

Ive done a few top 20 lists and the one that almost makes it but can't quite justify is Swords and Serpents. Such a difficult pain in the rear game, but so fun.

21st out of 799 NES titles is not great?

Yeah, this thread's topic doesn't seem to be working too well. Most folks are just guessing rather than actually referencing a list they already have.

Well, I was hoping it would force you guys to actually sit down and come up with said list.

That's what I did.

You were hoping people would sit down, devise a list of their 21 top NES games and then only offer that last one? Asking people to dig that far into their "favorites" is almost certainly going to result in a lot of arbitrary answers. Pretty much akin to asking what their 42nd favorite is.

Having said that, I choose... 720°.

Hrm, my 42nd favorite NES game. That's a tough one.

BRB, spending several hours replaying and researching games in my NES library to satisfy the curiosity of a person on a forum.

What really sucks is if you've only played 20 NES games.

talking about all NES games, how did we think these games were so awesome?! Those graphics are horrible! ha! But Denim Pine (http://www.denimpine.com/) they were the coolest. I think my favorites were either Contra (which still rocks) and Spyhunter.
