"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

NES - Super Mario Bros.
Master System - Great Baseball
SNES - Super Metroid and Earthbound are tied for me
Genesis - I'm going with Sonic. But, there are probably 25 games that I could make a case for.

32X - DOOM (I don't remember loving it, but I think I played it more than anything else.)
N64 - Goldeneye and Mario 64 tied
