I thought I'd do a series of posts asking everybody to list their top ten games per system, since I haven't really seen that around these parts. I was thinking we'd do one thread per system and discuss our favorites.

Post your top five or top ten Nintendo Entertainment System games here. If you want, you can also say a few words about why the games you picked are your favorites.

Addendum: Would you be interested in an overall ranking of favorite games similar to how other top 5/10 lists are done on this site, where your top game gets ten points, second game gets 9 points, and so on?

I just noticed this addendum.  I think it would be nice to have a ranking on a per system basis.  For example compare only NES games to other NES games.  This might be a lot of work though.  Just stating my preference since you asked.

I wouldn't mind doing something like this:

1. 5 points

2. 5 points

3. 4 points

4. 4 points

5. 3 points

6. 3 points

7. 2 points

8. 2 points

9. 1 point

10. 1 point

This would make ranking a little bit easier since you wouldn't worry quite so much about snubbing a favorite game.  It would also keep certain games from being runaway successes and allow for more parity.
