Whomp 'Em is pretty legit too.

Also Kid Dracula is a pure platformer unlike the more action adventure Castlevania games. There are so many choices. The NES library is just that good.

I should try one for the SNES next.

NES and SNES are far above the other Nintendo home consoles.

Is that...a baby in Bio-Miracle? :whuh: Have you tried Moon Crystal? I played Metal Storm years ago after hearing you talk about it and liked it. :)

Yes, Bio Miracle stars a baby. That's why it's weird that it's so good.

I have not tried Moon Crystal.

Up next I'll try Genesis.

Moon Crystal is good but hard. I have never passed level 1.

Demon's Crest is so damned hard.  Also I would've put EVO on there.

I'll have to add in Sega made games, since otherwise there will be too much similarities with the SNES list. But I'll try to not add in Sonic.

Heh, I didn't think Moonwalker would be a game that would hold up these days. I remember never could figure out where to go in Ghostbusters and I think X-Men stomped me too. What do you think of that X_Men, Spider-Man Arcade (the villain named Arcade) game?

I rented it back in the day being that I liked Spider-Man and X-Men, but it just wasn't very fun. Shame, too, because it was a good idea for a game.

I liked it but then again, I still have trouble remembering what games I didn't like as a kid (I actually liked Shaq Fu, for instance). Have you ever played that VR Bart Simpson game? Forget its name

Virtual Bart. Yes, I played all the Simpsons games back then hoping for something on par with the arcade game. None of them were close.

But Virtual Bart was enjoyable enough from what I remember. Just very, very hard at points.

EDIT: A lot like Bart's Nightmare, actually.

I played a tiny bit of Bart's Nightmare. I was real young.

It seems like all the Bart games were very hard. It was impossible for me to get past parts in Virtual Bart (I believe you could select from a few levels, at first). I could not get past the first level of the alien game. Also, that game was one of the scariest games I've ever played as a kid. The hell were they thinking? :shit:

The Simpsons games were always really hard. When I was a kid I played Bart Vs the Space Mutants so many times that I don't know why I never stopped. I mean, I don't think I ever even made it to level 3.
