Perhaps a quote from the man himself will suit this thread

Fun fact, the original Japanese Pokemon Red and Green spent 6 years in development. Look at their legacy.

I also have an N64 with the expansion pack, 4 controllers (grey), and a Gameshark.I spent a while gathering everything up. Worth it.
The only games I can really think of that I don't have are Harvest Moon 64, Mario Party 1, and F-ZERO GX.
The N64 is probably my favourite Nintendo system, but the SNES comes very close.

Reggie way back when. He's just rocking that afro.

Fun fact: The voice actors for Wolf on Star Fox 64 and Star Fox: Assault are the same voice actors for the Soldier and Engineer in TF2, respectively.

Pfft, N64.

Anyone who is anybody knows that the real Nintendo machine is the Super Nintendo Entertainment System.

Help! Help! I'm being attacked by nostalgia!

I'd say it was the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES).

 

[brantbren]

I'd say it was the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES).

I'd say it was when they were a card company back in 1889.

 

[littlespedve]

I have a deck of Hanafuda cards. They're pretty nifty. And I disagree with your statement Jiga, the SNES is obviously the most important system in Nintendo's history. Think of all the series that were kick started because of it. Donkey Kong Country, Starfox, F-ZERO, and a bunch more. They were all just continued on the N64 and so on.

To express my love for Super Mario world, I recovered this old video

Sung by BrentalFloss, If you don't know him I'd suggest checking him out.

 

[Mightythedj23]

I enjoyed Legend of Zelda: a Link to the past sooo much. i have it for the GBA. i still play it every now and then. the same for Yoshi's island. That was my first handheld game. The Gba was my first handheld. still have it. good times. :3

 

[Nordiclovepotion]

I am a huge fan of the entire Zelda franchise. I own every single game except for Oracle of Ages. My least favorite is Spirit Tracks. Mario was good up until the massive amount of milking (All the freaking sports games and Mario Parties, although Mario Party is fun, it's still pretty cheap). I'm pretty disappointed with Nintendo, they make a console, release a bunch of cheap-o crappy games for them, with a few jewels mixed in, and then hold off working on the system they already have OUT, and start another one that is most likely going to flop/be the same (Here's looking at you, Wii U). But, on the other hand, don't take my last sentence as disdain for the Wii U, I really want to try it out.

My favorites in my collection are
Starfox 64
Castlevania (original, rage inducing, terrible looking, but super fun.)
Donkey Kong Country (Hated the sequels)
Donkiey Kong 64 (Except that one)
Zelda
Most mario, The marios on Gamecube were largely unenjoyable, but I like Mario Galaxy, it's different, and I like the new Super Mario bros for wii
YOSHI'S ISLAND
Edit: Breath of Fire I and II, megaman, and all the Metroids I've played

 

[Creeper]

Castlevania (original, rage inducing, terrible looking, but super fun.)

Castlevania, at least was, super difficult and frustrating. I gave up on those games too soon.

It can make you punch your mother sometimes, I'll agree.

I loaded up the GBA emulator and downloaded Castlavania. God damn this game is ridiculous.

I have the original NES and Castlevania, and I have to say it is the hardest game I've ever played. Never made it far in the game, but I find the game incredibly fun regardless.
