The top 10 best and worst Nes games released worldwide

I'm looking for a list of the ten best games and ten worst games that were released for the NES. I've seen lists like this before but they were either US release heavy or a lot of unofficial games were included.



So I'm asking for what are the 10 best and worst NES games though they must have been released throughout the world and licensed games.

  • I was going to give this a go but it's just too subjective, and OP didn't really provide any basis to make it less-so.. so I'll just leave it as:



    1. Super Mario Bros.
  • My ten faves in no real order. May or may not be the ten best but my favorites.



    Super Mario bros

    Super C

    Contra

    Baseball Stars

    Mike Tysons Punch Out!!

    Mega Man 2

    Ghosts n Goblins

    Life Force

    Dragon Warrior IV

    Gradius
  • Alright I'll take a stab at an actual list myself,



    Mike Tyson Punch Out

    Tetris

    Super Mario Bros

    Super Mario Bros 3

    Super C

    Legend of Zelda

    Gimmick

    Mega Man 2

    Kid Icarus

    Recca

    I'm always changing my mind
  • Best:

    Die Hard

    Shatterhand

    Gun Nac

    Clash at Demonhead

    Uncharted Waters

    Yeah, it's not a pick up and play game. You need the manual to learn about the sub and how to manuever and hunt down enemy ships. Like the fact that a second controller unlocks some of the repair options.



    Protip: take out the destroyers first. They're more active than the freighters.
