The Good Old Days

When I was younger I remember playing plenty of games. I played on consoles such as NES, Sega Genesis, and Nintendo 64. Some of the games I played back then I would still play today. They are great games and I think some of them will be around forever. Here is a list of games that I played that I think were some of the best games out.
Comment at the bottom if you like the list, or feel some games are missing from my list. Let me know what games you would have your list.   These are in no particular order.

Street Of Rage      
This game was one of the first games i played when i was a kid. The simple fighting action in it was amazing at the time. As a kid just playing the game and being the one guy no enemy in the game beat up. No matter how many of them there are.  


NFL Blitz
        NFL Blitz was one of the games i played mainly for entertainment reasons. Just to the players throw each other around and to see the way they hit each other in the game was always fun.  


NBA Live 95
           I used to play this game with my uncle. we would sit for hours and play this game. playing game after game scoring 100 or more points a game. Completely blowing out the other team. The col thing was that we would turn off all the fouls in the game. Every time the other team had the ball we would foul them and get back the ball. one time we scored 300 point in one game. It was to much fun. 



Madden NFL 94
The one thing i remember about this game is playing with my uncle. We would play against each other and he would beat me every time by at least 30. However i never used to care about the score it was just a lot of fun to play.



Metroid Prime 64
          Metroid Prime was the first first person game i played. at the time i was not ready for it. I would always be jumping every time an enemy came onto the screen. beside me being a baby the game was fun. 



Pokemon Red & Blue 
          This game pretty much took over my world when i got it. i would pick it up and have it in my hands for hours. Just looking at the screen and trying to capture every pokemon in the game. still this day i have not beat any of the pokemon games. One day I will.



Sonic the Hedgehog
           Still to this day it is one of the more fun and addicting games to play. The fast pace running and looping. All of which somewhat requires good timing.  



Street Fighter
This is what i claim to be original fighting game. It is definitely one of my all-time favorite games. I could go back and play this game at anytime and still have tons of fun. The best part was standing in a corner and doing RYU’s hadouken and upset my brother cause he could not time it. Love this game.




Super Mario Bros
An classic all the way. I still play this game when I go to my uncles house. I beat it at least a hundred times and I still all ways go back to play it. 


Mario Kart 64
Even though this was not in order from best to last this game is hands down my favorite game from my past. Either by myself or with other people. It is just generally fun and addicting. it the ultimate party game everyone can enjoy this game. 



Remember to comment if you feel some games are missing and let me know which games you would add. If you think this list is fine still comment on it.

  1. As someone who has dabbled in the gaming world, I enjoyed your list of throwback games. Many of the titles you included were ones I played back in the day. Pokemon, Street Fighter, Mario Kart, and Blitz were all some of my favorites.

    If I had to make a suggestion, I would probably add the Nintendo 64 games Super Smash Bros, Donkey Kong 64, and James Bond Goldeneye. Those are a couple that I remember playing.

    All in all, this post was a nice trip down memory lane.
