The Nintendo Advantage was one of the nes's best accessories, so what were the best games to use it with!
How about River City Ransom, Ninja Gaiden?

Oh, I'd have to say most any platformer was a great fit for the stick.

I loved the Advantage for Mega Man 1,2, and 3, and Final Fantasy for buying Heal Potions, and if you had 2 Advantages, Smash TV!

I enjoyed playing Life Force with the Advantage. Perfection!

TMNT II and III were arcade-y, so it would probably work awesome with those games. :o

A preposition is something you should never end a topic title with.

I've never heard of the Nintendo Advantage, but from what I gather it's a joystick like thing. Googles Ah, I'm right.

I'm with Daz, Lifeforce was better with the Advantage. I also liked using it for RC Pro Am for some strange reason.

Great for SMB2 -- if you tweak around with the turbo speed/dial for the "A" button, you can find a sweet spot so that you are guaranteed at least 1 life (and usually more) for every coin.

I have a NES to Wii/GC adaptor, and use my Advantage for most NES VC games, unless i'm in more of a classic pad mood -- nothing like playing the original SMB with the original NES pad!

She-Ra is awesome. If you believe otherwise, you are clearly wrong.
Lindsey Stirling is as awesome as She-Ra. Perhaps even more so.

Ah, RC Pro Am! I remember that one Corbie! I would love to see that one come to the Virtual Console! As far as the NES Advantage goes, I loved using it for playing 1943! Good times!:)

Well if you count the SNES advantage I'd say any Street Fighter or any other fighter. Like TMNT4 or Final Fight. Anything in the fighting genre.

@WolfRamHeart

RC Pro-Am was made by Rare, and seeing as how they're owned by Microsoft now, I wouldn't count on it coming to the Virtual Console. Nintendo and Microsoft don't really get along. Then again, I suppose it could be re-released on XBLA.
