Your Set of 30 Games for a Second NES Classic Edition

If Nintendo asked you to come up with 30 different games to add to your own, custom NES, what games would you add?



My apologies if this thread idea already exists, I haven't posted here in a while.

  • I'd go for the fun games most people don't have or haven't played... so it would be a harder sell. I guess I could also include some of the popular ones that people miss on this one.



    Batman

    Battletoads

    Blaster Master

    Bionic Commando

    Bucky O'Hare

    Cabal

    Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse

    Clash at Demonhead

    Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers

    Contra

    Duck Tales

    Guardian Legend

    Krion Conquest

    Little Samson

    Marble Madness

    Mega Man or Mega Man 3

    Metal Storm

    Mighty Final Fight

    Pro Wrestling

    Shatterhand

    Snake Rattle 'n Roll

    Super Dodge Ball

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Arcade Game

    Whomp 'Em

    Wrecking Crew



    Not exactly 30 there... but just quickly going over the games I own and thinking 'Wow, it would be awesome to see that on one'. I know there would be licensing issues and such, just what I think would be a nice little thing for people to experience.
  • I'm mixing my list I'd want to see on a Famicom version intended for western audiences, but here goes:

    1942

    DuckTales (presumed licensing issues)

    DuckTales 2

    Earthbound Beginnings

    Final Fantasy III

    Fire 'N Ice

    Gun.Smoke

    Jackal

    Journey to Silius

    Kung Fu

    Mega Man 6

    Metal Gear

    Ms. Pac-Man

    NES Open Tournament Golf

    New Ghostbusters II

    Ninja Gaiden II The Dark Sword of Chaos

    Ninja Gaiden III Ancient Ship of Doom

    Nintendo World Cup

    Pinball

    R.C.Pro AM (presumed licensing issues)

    R.C.Pro AM II (presumed licensing issues)

    Rad Racer

    Rad Racer II

    River City Rampage (somehow I still don't have this game)

    Skate or Die

    Skate or Die 2 Search for Double Trouble

    Snake's Revenge

    Spy Hunter

    Super Mario Bros. 2 (AKA Lost Levels/For Super Players)

    Super Spy Hunter

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (presumed licensing issues)

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II The Arcade Game (presumed licensing issues)

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III The Manhattan Project (presumed licensing issues)

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Tournament Fighters (presumed licensing issues)

    Tetris (presumed licensing issues)

    Urban Champion

    Wario's Woods

    Yoshi

    Yoshi's Cookie

    Zoda's Revenge: StarTropics 2



    I would imagine that the extra money spent on licensing issues could justify a $100 price. Obviously, not all can be worked out so I included more than 30.  
  • Are any big Nintendo games not represented already? Unless we are talking a something crazy like earthbound zero, let's focus on third party.



    Capcom edition: other mega man games, Disney titles, gargoyles quest, bionic commando, etc



    Konami edition: cv3, jackal, blades of steel, contra, life force, etc

    Absolutely. Secure a double deal with those two publishers + Disney and release a Capcom/Konami edition. Would definitely fly off the shelves.



    Add StarTropics 2, the Ninja Gaiden sequels and Mr. Gimmick for good measure, and that's it!

  • On a recent video review of the NES Classic, Mike Matei suggested that they put out a NES mini with all the crappy games.
