My favorite C 64 Games were Katakis, Turrican and the last ninja games.

 

Gotta love Katakis - Chris Hülsbeck's soundtrack is nothing short of splendid. Keep in mind C64 game is almost completely different from the Amgia version; the level design in particular is much better. Amiga version is pretty good, but it's an obvious R-type rip-off. There was a famous lawsuit at the time, involving Rainbow Arts and Activision.

Just one look at Enforcer, and you can tell the team behind Katakis is behind it as well... :)

Let me tell you which one - Ocean's.

 

Regarding Last Ninja - it wasn't the only great System 3 game/series. Myth, Flimbo's Quest and Tusker are all quality games.

no one said anything about System 3 no making many great games I just brought up last ninja as I know it is one of their most highly regarded series, and I know the praise is well justified

though I think reference guides for all of the classic consoles/computers should be made

That Donkey Kong port was done by AtariSoft which was one out of eight ported arcade games.  I still have my original cartridge.  It's broken, but it's quite a keepsake since I love Donkey Kong and Nintendo.  Besides that, you have to include Jumpman and Jumpman Junior to the list.  I have (in my office) Jumpman on two CASSETTES.  Oh, the memories...

Where's the Forbidden Forest love? More importantly, look for the sequel, Beyond the Forbidden Forest, and Aztec Challenge.
