NES and Super Nintendo are the only systems I know how to play.

Kung-Fu
Street Fighter 2
Skate or Die
California Games
Star Fox

Some of the best

Star Fox for SNES?
I might have to revisit Skate or Die and California Games. I loved Skate or Die when I was a kid, but couldn't figure it out when I revisited it last year.



And how could I forget the most AWESOME game of all time:

STREETS OF RAGE 2! The soundtrack alone puts it in the top ten, but the gameplay for a beat'em up makes it my favorite of ALL TIME.

Love the feature to buy old school NES games on the wii. I have punch out and smb now and looking to get more. Also went out to get the old school controller a few months ago, much better than trying to use the wii controller to play.

Yeah for SNES, I never advanced my video gaming further than that system

I'm not big on rpg games, but Dragon Warrior always intrigued me a bit.

The first one isn't very involved as an RPG, you need to talk to people in the towns for hints for what to do next, but that's about it. And you don't have to worry about a large party of characters either.

I'm not much on the turn based gameplay, although I'm a big fan of Earthbound for the snes. I do love me some Zelda games, for those who consider that to be rpg.
