1080 Avalanche
Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life
Ikaruga

Lost Kingdoms
Sonic Adventure 2 Battle
Super Monkey Ball
Wave Race: Blue Storm

There you go sir.

Bump that noise, Monkey Ball can be beaten in a weekend and is a heckuva lot of fun. Monkey Ball 2 was a let down to me. Monkey Target in Monkey Ball is still a favorite at my house.

Jokes aside, Lost Kingdoms is a good run too.

Just so you're aware; Wii got a Battalion Wars sequel, DS got a Custom Robo sequel, Luigi's Mansion got a 3DS sequel, and Pikmin got a Wii U sequel.

Don't forget F-Zero in that list. Nintendo always does.


I said some didn't and I have all of those except for the 3DS Luigi's Mansion which I would like to get. Yep, I forgot F-Zero from that list, my bad.

Nintendo always does because they want you to forget about F-Zero too, like other long (and ancient long) lost franchises that they could do wonders with in a modern environment as Kid Icarus proved. They'd rather retread just a few safe AAA games into the dirt. :\

Love to get a new Custom Robo, F-Zero, Eternal Darkness, Cubivore, and for them to grow up and give us Doshin the Giant (which I have for PAL-GC along with a Freeloader disc to boot it.)

I've got their last (I think) F-Zero -- Climax. Shame those twits didn't release that here on GBA given it has the best cars, courses, stage design, audio, and also a portable version of the F-Zero track maker the N64DD had (and it saves like 20 courses on the cart too.)

Probably my least favorite Nintendo console by a large margin.

2. Wii U
3. Nintendo Entertainment System
4. Gamecube

Neither can I but mostly from confusion given the knowns about the games on that system especially in comparison to other Nintendo consoles. I mean sure the NES could easily compare or top it, but they've been on a slide ever since, though in quality and quantity of solid releases the Gamecube is a high rank on the list.

I'd almost call it a reversal prank but I couldn't qualify the NES being that low then.

Haha, it's mostly because the SNES is what I have the least experience with; it's the only one I didn't either grow up with or have at launch, so it's the one with which I have the fewest fond memories and on which I've played the fewest games.
