I'm addicted to Side-Scrolling games recently and just wanted to know what are you favorite Side-Scrolling games. (just incase i haven't played it)

Mine has to be Super Mario World. I love that game so much, and everytime i put it in my old SNES and play it, i feel all of my childhood memories smack me in my face xD.

Yours?

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night is the greatest side-scroller of all time.

- Metal Slug series.
- Echo The Dolphin

I would recommend Sonic and some other, but it was already done in previous posts.

Bet with jetforcejiminy: PS4 will pass the Wii lifetime numbers.

Any of you guys play Panzer Bandit? It's Japan only, but It was one of my favorite beat-em-ups a few years ago. Now, it isn't my absolute favorite sidescrolling game, but I think it's worth mentioning.

Video :)

Strider 2 is pretty great too. It totally blew me away when I was younger.

Ninja five-O: A solid game, through and through. I highly recommend it.

Last, but not least, Drill Dozer. Developed by Gamefreak. It may not be my all-time favorite GBA game, but it's darn close. I'm still waiting for Nintendo to release a sequel.
