So, if you are a fan of action arcade games, you will love to play Double Dragon II: The Revenge on your NES classic edition.
4. Bomberman
There are ideas so great that sometimes they can only be improved with a visual update and the debut of the Bomberman in the NES in the proof of it. As you will have a lot of fun if you play it in online multiplayer mode, of course, it can be terribly addictive.
5. Contra
Contra is Another well-known NES classic that came to America and Europe with a new name and graphics. Of course, its difficulty, then and now, remains legendary and lends itself perfectly to online multiplayer gaming.
6. Tetris
Maybe the name ‘Tetris’ is more associated with the Game Boy, but its formula and its version of Russian folk song in 8 bits make it one of the best and iconic titles.
7. Mega Man 2
The NES received no less than six numbered blue bomber deliveries of Capcom, but if we have to stay with it, then we are very clear that we are committed to the sequel. The reason? The Mega Man 2 is the perfect mix between difficulty and fun, with the best songs of the whole series.
8. Castlevania
‘Castlevania’ is back! Konami has not only recovered two of its best titles for PS4 recently but ‘Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’ will add Simon and Richter Belmont and a dedicated stage. So, it’s time to go back to the roots of the saga.
9. Ninja Gaiden II
The sequel of Ninja Gaiden, of course, Ninja Gaiden II, was the authentic revulsive of the saga: more difficulty, more surreal environments, more implacable enemies, and much more ninjutsu to survive all of the above things.
10. TMNT II: The Arcade Game
The Ninja Turtles have never gone out of fashion. Hence, it is more than a sequel, the second title based on the Ninja Turtles that Konami had released on NES, an adaptation of its legendary Beat’em Up for recreational. And despite the huge visual jump between systems, the domestic edition was noble. So, what do you think about this? Share all your views and thoughts in the comment section below.
