31 years after the launch of the original Nintendo Entertainment System, Nintendo launched the NES Classic Edition which comes with 30 original Nintendo games pre-installed. Here are all the best games for the new console ranked from top to bottom.
The Top Ten
1 Super Mario Bros. 3

The lineup is amazing, but where is Ducktales? Or Metal Gear? Or Tetris? Or the other Mega Man games? Or Wario's Woods? Or thirty others that will take too long to mention...

I love Super Mario Bros. 3. I have the NES Classic edition.

Awesome game

2 Castlevania

Love that game, it's one of the best games ever made; but it's also one of the hardest, but that's what makes it so good.

3 Super Mario Bros.
4 The Legend of Zelda
5 Tecmo Bowl
6 Mega Man 2
7 Punch-Out!!
8 Super Mario Bros. 2
9 Metroid
10 Super C
The Contenders
11 Dr. Mario
12 Final Fantasy
13 Double Dragon II

Probably still have scar tissue in my thumb from this game. Along with Bubble Bobble, this was one of the games where it helped to hold the controller with your right thumb under the controller and the A and B buttons being covered by the right index and middle fingers. Using two fingers made it easier to spam the spinning kick where you needed to push both buttons at the same time.

Also, this became my first fighting game for 1 v 1 local play combat. Simply knock out the first round of baddies, don't move forward, and now you and the other person playing can duke it out with each other.

14 Bubble Bobble

How many nights did I fall asleep with the tune from this game still playing in my head? A ton.

15 Ninja Gaiden
16 StarTropics
17 Galaga

How can you not love this game! Starts out easy, then gets extremely difficult. Just wait till you get to stage 20!

18 Kirby's Adventure
19 Kid Icarus
20 Zelda II: The Adventure of Link
21 Gradius
22 Pac-Man
23 Mario Bros.
24 Donkey Kong

It is a fun game to play
