Most Favorite Older School Game
Now, to define old school, we will say any game that came in cartridge form. That discludes PS, PS2, Dreamcast, GC, and any other non-cartridge games. For the N64, use your judgement as that is a newer system that came out while non-cartridge games were also coming out.
I have a long list, only because I cannot make decisions. 1-Gyroscope for NES 2-Metriod, but even more so, Super Metroid 3-Zombies ate my Neighbors 4-Super Mario Brothers 3 5-Mario Paint

Wisdom Tree's Bible Adventures for NES
Particurally, Noah's Arc mode. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() You had to return all the animals to the boat, and you could fit about four animal on your head before they start to fall off. They could also hurt you and you had to answer bible questions to regain your health. Now thats what I call religion! ![]() |

Ha, I own Bible Adventures. Weird game. I also have another Bible game... it's called King of Kings. Very similar.
I'd say Mario 3 Pac-man Mario Paint Destiny of an Emperor (NES RPG, reminded me of Pokemon, which if you ignore the kiddy hype around it was a good game) Final Fantasy Chrono Trigger Secret of Mana Mega Man X |

0) Chopper (or whatever that classic on the C-64 was called)
1) Pacman 2) Bard's Tale 3) Mario Brothers on Atari 7800 (broke one million on that one after 6 plus hours and clearing level 100 where the game loops again) 5) Pole Position on the same platform - still my favourite racing game 6) Orginal Wolfenstein and Doom

the evolution of Zelda is great...
i really love the old orginal style on the NES and the the SNES... but the transformation on N64 and thus the GameCube is phenomenal... so my fav old school games would have to be the Legend of Zelda.

NES: Super Mario Brothers 3 NES: Astyanax SNES: Legend of Zelda - A Link to the Past SNES: Mario World SNES: Chrono Trigger SNES: Final Fantasy III/VI/whatever it is... the awesome one Classic stuff... they don't make em like this anymore.

Keystone Caper - Atari
Ghoul Patrol - SNES (it was like Zombies Ate My Neighbors but 9 million times better) Soldiers of Fortune -SNES Kangaroo - Atari Gyruss - If you don't know then you shouldn't be playing video games. Bonanza Bros - Genesis Rise of the Dragon - Sega CD Dark Savior - Sega Saturn Dragon Force - Sega Saturn Just about anything with the word "Castle" in the title. Ultima - see Gyruss Dragon Warrior series - see Gyruss. My list goes on and on and on... but those are some of my favs. It just seems that console game makers have lost their touch and are only holding onto the short attention span market. Games aren't fun on consoles any more and PC game makers aren't making games anymore... they're making half games and releasing patches to make up for their initial mistakes.

The Irishman, too, picked the fly out of his drink but then held it out over the beer and yelled "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!" |

I forgot to mention Elite on the C64. So much of my teenage life was spent on that game. Even by todays standard it is still worth playing as it is so addictive.
Also for multiplayers a game called MULE. Again this was on the C64. |
