Ninja Warriors

Thanks for all the great answers!  Going to have to retry Adventure Island for the nes as I only played thru the 1st few levels over 10 years ago.

Just beat Ninja Saviors in Switch on hard mode to unlock Raiden.  Not a real challenging game, but extremely fun none the less.

Console: Pilotwings on the snes

Handheld: Chip’s Challenge on the Atari Lynx

Both are challenging games, but fun to play in short spurts.  

I should clarify.  Bopopolis using Donkey Kong from the Wii U release.

Mine would have to be Bopopolis (level 2K) from Donkey King Country Tropic Freeze.

And Ninja Saviors is an AWESOME beatemup for the switch that just recently  came out.

Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is absolutely awesome. One of the best modern platformers on any platform and it has amazing music. It can be surprisingly tough, but there's an easy mode character if you need a little help or just get frustrated.

Love this game!!  You should receive a reward if you can beat Bopopolis Level 2k in less than 20 tries.

Ardy Lightfoot SNES with a clean label.

Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy’s Kong Quest.  A masterpiece of platforming, and the greatest soundtrack of any game I have played.

Nostalgia.  I also find collecting/playing vintage games can be a good stress reliever.  I try to only purchase game genres I like within each system.  Platformers for the nes, and beatemups for the snes.

Sorry to hear about this.  Sometimes sellers are willing to do unethical things for a quick buck.  I once had a great buy on a BIN Dragon Fighter for the nes that the seller then claimed was stolen at the post office.  The transaction was refunded but I was not allowed to leave feedback.  It seemed very fishy to me, and I suspect someone backdoored me.

I guess it was about the condition of the games since most did not have pictures.  It’s a shame because I had good luck with Amazon a few years ago on a CIB Swordmaster for the nes (dead mint but had no pictures), and a CIB Biker Mice From Mars for the SNES (good to very good range and again no pictures).

My 1st console was an SNES, but I always wanted an NES due to not having one growing up ( parents said it would ruin the tv).  The NES got in me into collecting retro, so I would definitely have to say that it is my favorite era.

Very excited.  I played my wife’s original GC version earlier this year and had a blast!  Hopefully it lives up to the original.

Kirby and Sword Master for me. 

This.  Sword Master really surprised me with how much of an improvement it is from Castle of Dragon.

Ninja Saviors on Switch.  Love this remake!

Dragon Fighter, really? I feel that is one of the truly uncommon NES games. That and Sword Master, I don’t want to pay those prices but I feel price is warranted. 

 

Little Samson, Bubble Bobble 2, Ducktales 2 I feel are uncommon as well but the price shouldn’t be as bad as it is. 

I agree about Dragon Fighter.  Dragon Fighter could be a top 10 rarity on the nes.  Dragon Fighter and Kid Klown took the longest for me to find when I was actively searching.

Excited to join a site dedicated to gaming!  I am a big fan of NES, SNES, and Atarti Lynx (had an SNES and Lynx in my youth).  Hope to gain as much knowledge as I can on these systems.
