You really expect me to go through the whole list and pick out the amount of games that I've played? I'm sorry, but not even an insane video game player wouldn't go through it and count how many they've played from a list that's over 1,000 games long.

Thanks given to Xkhaoz for that one avatar.

You know, if I was more of a Nintendo fan I would run a discussion and poll to make a list of the NL community's top 20 historically-important games on Nintendo consoles. 20 seems like a nice number and limiting the selection to Nintendo consoles would make the list more meaningful. Unfortunately I missed out on every console between the NES and the Wii, so I'm not qualified. Still I'd be interested to see what the community turns up.

Others did it, including me.

I'll play what I want to play, and not be influenced by a crappy list some dude made (which I can't believe you typed out, btw). Everybodies opinions and preferences are different, so how can anyone know which games I must play. This is silly.

Rawr!

@Mickeymac: i'm pretty sure it was a mistake on his part, it just made me lol (especially in context considering you'd be calling yourself 'insane') so i figured i'd point it out :3

I've played 238 out of the 1001 games. Not half bad. Also this list is proof that I really need to get a good computer so I can play more PC games.

The fact that Spyro the Dragon, Medievil, Crash Bandicoot, Bonk, Legendary Axe, Pokemon, and Donkey Kong Country were excluded....and that only 3 Sonic games made it on the list (Sonic 1, 2, and Adventure)... and that no Turbografx games or import games made it on the list... I'm going to conclude that it's not a great list.

Agreed. This list needs more Turbografx-16 love.

I played 95 games from that list. I don't necessarily own them all, though. :3
but seriously though, why aren't Pokemon Gold/Silver/HeartGold/SoulSilver on the list instead of P/D?
and DKC3 instead of DKC1? O_o

Why the heck is Yoshi Touch and Go on that list? That's one of the most boring games I've ever played.
And no, I do NOT need to play COD before I die.

Just out of curiosity, what is it that Breath of Fire II: The Fated Child has that Breath of Fire: The Dragon Warrior doesn't? I'm not saying the second game in the series is bad, I just have more fondness for the first one is all (albeit in Game Boy Advance format).

^ Improved fishing minigame?

I can't think of any exclusive must-play tg-16 games, which ones are you all thinking of?

Well there's the Bonk trilogy, the Crush games, the Ys games and all the excellent shooters released on it.

Very nice to see two Art Style games make the list. Not really the ones I would have picked but hey, better than nothing!

Every game should be played before you die, I'll wait for the 100001 list, anyway...

I'll assume Trackmania DS is on the list only because it has a track editor on a portable device.

In my opinion Trauma Center: Under the Knife isn't worth playing (compared to Under the Knife 2).

Kind of humourous that Tecmo Super Bowl represents football games since sports games usually focus on being the latest and greatest.

Maybe put a Twisted Metal game in there?

Skyroads (or something similar).

Why no Etrian Odyssey series? Are there similar alternatives in the list?

I think there should be an old Disney game.

I'd add Lagoon just because everyone should experience the toothpick sword.

An accelerometer puzzle game.

Metal Combat: Falcon's Revenge (I'm assuming this sequel is better than Battle Clash).

Hunt the Wumpus.

A hunting sim.

Parsec.

A Ninja Turtles game.

Battletoads.

I really don't like that there's only one Mega Man game. I'm going to assume it was a typo and they meant every Megaman game except 8.

Haven't heard of Golcon. Shall assume that's the second typo and they meant Galcon.

Does anyone here play CoD 4:Modern Warfare? I recently finished the campaign and I'm getting bored of it.
