Man this article brings back memories. Guardian Legend was one of my favorite NES games. Remake GL in VR with an open world setting! Bayou Billy was pretty wild for the time--the light gun sequences were fun. I'm really surprised Blaster Master didn't make it on this list. And while not a nes title, Actraiser is worth an honorable mention.

Thanks so much for the feedback! Yeah, I plan to do more on this topic later, so I wanted to save a few games for a future piece. Actraiser is definitely going to be a topic.

I played the hell out of The Guardian Legend as a kid, and those passwords still haunt me in my adult life.

After10Ben2353d ago

I forgot about those. I can't believe how dedicated we were to our games back then. I remember having a paper covered in those codes, one wrong letter or number and ouch.

KwietStorm_BLM2353d ago

Yea man and that happened to me at least once. It was like a whole paragraph all for a one time use. Kids today growing up with checkpoints, manual saves, cloud backups, and backups to the backups.

BrainSyphoned2354d ago

Worth an actual click! Adventures of Bayou Billy and Operation Wolf were the last games I bought at KBToys before it vanished from the mall.

I saw the cover for Guardian Legend scrolling thru n4g and my heart jumped....I loved playing that game.

Vice! Seriously a strange but absolutely great game.

Grabbed it online for my NES mini.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing6d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit6d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing6d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster926d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
