    I like Adventure Island 1,2, but one of my oldest memories of video game goodness was of playing the original. My granperants would pick up alot of games used while they travelled around in their motor-home.
    I couldnt get past the first boss... but i only got to play it for little while since they were just visiting.

    I would probably say 3 out of the NES games. Not to stray off the NES topic but Adventure Island fans should check out New Adventure Island for TG16 as it's better than the NES games.

    Adventure island rocks. I've always liked these games, and 3 is the best of the NES ones. I actually just bought the GCN remake from play-asia....hope it gets here soon! And I'd love to check out the TG16 one too.

    This is one of my favourite series, and Adventure Island 1 is one of the best platforming games ever made. It's far superior to Wonderboy. I do like the graphics AND sound of Wonderboy better, but the game play/play control isn't there. And as you all know, if you don't have the game play down pat, nothing else matters. Adventure Island 1 has the tightest play control of any platformer this side of the SMB series, and an awesome difficulty ramp. A beginner should be able to beat the first world no problem, an intermediate player should be able to get to World 4 or 5 in one game, and a PLATFORMING GOD should be able to beat the game without continuing (I got to 8-2 in one game once )

    I love this series to death. I had this one of my old multi back in the day and the original is still my all time favorite.

    I never actually played these games as a kid, but trying to play them now... I realize I really suck at them.
    I go online sometimes, but ... everyone's spelling is really bad, and it's ... depressing.

    Number two was my favourite, Particular highlights were riding the skateboard. I remember being a furious as a child because my dad was better at the game than I was, this has not occured since.
