Man this article brings back memories. Guardian Legend was one of my favorite NES games. Remake GL in VR with an open world setting! Bayou Billy was pretty wild for the time--the light gun sequences were fun. I'm really surprised Blaster Master didn't make it on this list. And while not a nes title, Actraiser is worth an honorable mention.

Thanks so much for the feedback! Yeah, I plan to do more on this topic later, so I wanted to save a few games for a future piece. Actraiser is definitely going to be a topic.

I played the hell out of The Guardian Legend as a kid, and those passwords still haunt me in my adult life.

After10Ben1992d ago

I forgot about those. I can't believe how dedicated we were to our games back then. I remember having a paper covered in those codes, one wrong letter or number and ouch.

KwietStorm_BLM1992d ago

Yea man and that happened to me at least once. It was like a whole paragraph all for a one time use. Kids today growing up with checkpoints, manual saves, cloud backups, and backups to the backups.

Worth an actual click! Adventures of Bayou Billy and Operation Wolf were the last games I bought at KBToys before it vanished from the mall.

I saw the cover for Guardian Legend scrolling thru n4g and my heart jumped....I loved playing that game.

Vice! Seriously a strange but absolutely great game.

Grabbed it online for my NES mini.

Glad they didn't change the art style. This is looking good.. Why did they change the way the characters look anyway? The very first style was kind of ok, it was fine by Risky's Revenge and Pirate's Curse.. both in game sprite and the dialogue popups, why keep changing it? I am not as fussed on her newer look. She's looking kinda too dark or sunburnt now.
