It's 1986..Which would you choose?

[Baloo]

But this IS a tough one for me. This is what I would pick had I chose the NES:

Metroid
Castlevania
The Legend Of Zelda
Super Mario Bros

ALL GREAT GAMES! CLASSICS!

Classics yes, but Metroid, Castlevania, and Zelda didn't come out until '87.

NES had slim pickings in 1986, but Excitebike, Mario Bros., Popeye, Super Mario Bros., Duck Hunt, Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Jr., Hogan's Alley and Kung Fu, the system still maintains to be pretty entertaining. Even if all the games are light-gun games and arcade ports.

And then 1987 rolls around and you see how fantastic you're purchase has become...
