The NES is my favorite system even all of these years later. During the late 80s it was mind blowing. It had all of these great games that were not like anything I'd played before. If you had told me at the time that most of the big games over the next several decades would just be sequels to NES games, I never would have believed you. NES games were so frikken innovative. I had no idea that all of that innovation would largely stagnate over the years.
