1. Super Mario
2. Legend of Zelda
3. Mega Man
4. Castlevania
5. Dragon Quest
6. Final Fantasy (It was a toss-up between this and DQ; ultimately I decided that there have been some FF games that have disappointed me, and I'm not sure I totally like the "new direction" of this and previous gen's game (call me old-fashioned if you will))
7. Metal Gear Solid (Not the biggest Metal Gear original series fan, but I love the PS1 and up games)
8. Tetris (definitely deserve a nod)
9. Monkey Island (hell, if I could categorize all of the Lucasarts point-n-click games I would)
10. Street Fighter (Best_fighting_game_period)
