It's sad. Popular games like Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Contra, and Final Fantasy are constantly pushed into gamers' lists of Top Ten NES games. But what about the other games left behind in the dust? What about Super C, the sequel to the original Contra, with the same engine as the latter, but with harder gameplay? How about StarTropics? While I haven't played the game personally, I heard that it was a great game hindered by a late release date when the SNES came out and impressed gamers with Super Mario World and F-Zero. And finally, my personal second-favorite NES game of all time, Mother 1? Mother 1, while difficult and sometimes cryptic, was actually a fun game, and although the characters in the game suffered from poor translation, the dialogue still gives me a chuckle every time.
Super C, StarTropics, and Mother 1 are only a mere fraction of forgotten classics of the NES. I didn't go into Zoda's Revenge: StarTropics II. Super Mario Bros. 2 (the fake one) and Zelda II are also overlooked by fans (heh...) of their respective franchises despite being good games themselves. But the point is, which game on the NES did you feel was overlooked by the general public?
