Jackie Chan's Action Kung Fu, is a freaking great game. I had a buddy that was huge into martial arts flicks and the 1978 Drunken Master was on a very regular rotation at his house, so this game was a must purchase for him. Played it a ton on his old 13" color tv/vcr combo (if you remember that ancient tech).

This was Peak NES with this line up! Just a year or two till the SNES comes out and so many good games were released. Not all were winners but still have a good amount of greats.

Also, I owned Dinowarz growing up. Why? It was a budget game on initial release and quickly made it's way to the clearance rack. My parents weren't loaded, so budget and clearance games were mostly what I got. Funny thing is, this includes stuff like Blaster Master, Super Dodge Ball, etc. Everyone else was running for Ninja Gaiden and Mario, I ended up having a pretty cool 'cult classic' collection just from the fact those games upon release just didn't sell well and thus ended up in my christmas stocking.

Very cool year. 1990 was a big year for me. Mega Man III was the first in the series I got to play and now, all these decades later, and I'm still a die-hard Mega Man fanboy. The soundtrack to Mega Man III lives in my head, too.

It's funny. In 1990, as a nine year old, I considered Little Nemo to be a "little kids' game," far too lame to waste my time on; consequently, I missed out on it completely. Now, in my 40s, it is on my all time top five. There is a lesson in there, somewhere, but I am too tired to learn it at the moment. 😂

Your vids are so great and authentic. So many newer youtubers put together these type of lists and you can tell they spent maybe 5min playing each game on emulator just to say they played it. You on the other hand have personal anecdotes about each game, sometimes very in-depth stuff. I've never heard someone explain why the Max works great on DD2, but your explanation was concise and made sense (and I can vouch that's how I played it growing up, flying knees ruled the game.) Also, your comments on Snake's Revenge, by all accounts it is one of the better looking NES games but like you said there's just something missing there. I've actually beaten it once back in the day, but there's nothing to keep you coming back like the original. By contrast, the second Metal Gear on MSX2 does feel like an extension of the original, I found out years later when playing it on compilations. Anyway just wanted to say thanks and hope you keep putting out vids like this for a long time!

Snake rattle and roll was the first video game memory i ever had, helped of course from dad recording it on his new expensive camcorder back in late '91, my sisters are 6 and 8 years older than me so when I was born in '88 NES had been in the house for a couple years. We got SNES when I was 4 in early 1992 then I got my Genesis in xmas of '93, yeah I got a lot of video games, but I really appreciated them and cherished them very carefully even at a young age

1990 was also my personal pinnacle year for video games. I was turning 16 that year and I had a job, so for the first time I had money to buy my own Nintendo games. And I bought a lot of the games in this video! TMNT: The Arcade Game was one of my personal favorites, solo or with a buddy. Same thing with SM3. I also remember that my brother got me Ninja Gaiden 2 for Christmas that year, Which I felt obligated to beat since I was the only one in my circle of friends that finished the first game. (Yes, I finished part 2 as well.) Thanks for bringing back some great memories! ❤ On a totally unrelated note, I had no idea that John was 6 feet, 5 inches tall. The man is literally the same size as Jack Reacher! Does that mean that Riggs can also open up a can of whup ass...?? I'm not about to find out! 😅

Where I was we were so used to calling the sequel to Contra, "Contra 2" that when Super C came out we still called it Contra 2.

NES really had a banger year before the SNES finally dropped. Looking back, 1990 felt like the big climax of everything. Once we got SMB3, it kind of felt like it was time to look to the future. I'd say 1990 and 1988 were probably the two best years

From my understanding, the same designer/director made both Rolling Thunder and Code Name: Viper. Viper was done as a commission from Capcom from my understanding as well. I might be fuzzy on whether he worked for Capcom directly or it was commissioned, but I think it was a case of making a game that Capcom simply published/funded. But yeah, it's not a rip off if you rip off yourself (i.e. the game's designer ripping himself off)

There are a lot of good games here...what's funny is I got my Sega Genesis in 1989. Once I did, I was all about the 16-bit revolution (remember that Riggs/everyone). I remember pushing my Nes to the side and not really playing it anymore. However, I distinctly remember playing many of these games both at home and at friends' homes. I know for a fact that despite getting my Genesis, I still played Ninja Gaiden like it was going out of style. I played Nightmare on Elm Street with my best friend quite a bit (also Friday The 13th). I'm pretty sure I rented Little Nemo and loved it. I owned (somehow) MGS: Snakes Revenge, and I made it really far, but my Genesis was calling me, so I never finished it. As much as I remember playing, beating, and loving Super C....I don't know how I played it? I remember the music, all the levels, and 10 lives code, but how that happened is a Scooby-Doo mystery? Oh, and SMB3 was the best game I had ever played at the time. It wasn't topped until Sonic The Hedgehog came out in 1991.

I grew up owning Super C and not Contra so I'm sure it biases me, but giving Contra many a shot over the years, I still think Super C is better on every metric. I also just love the top-down base levels so much more than how they were handled in Contra. What I only recently discovered is how different the Super Contra arcade is and have been working through that. I feel some of the Super C hate is that it simplifies the original arcade version.

I always prefer Super C to Contra. I didn't think doing so was odd though its now more bitter sweet because it was the last game dad and I played together. Wrath of the Black Manta was the last NES game I got until my parents got an NES again in the mid 2000s though I didn't get it until 93. Final Fantasy is my third favorite turn-based JRPG released on the NES in the US but the first of my top three I owned though I didn't get it until 92. Crystalis is my favorite NES action RPG. I would have pre-ordered the SNK 40 anniversary collection for it alone though the collection had many other games I liked. I had so much fun playing Chip and Dal Rescue Rangers when I was a kid though I preferred two player to playing it alone. I loved Gauntlet II. One of my dream game collections is a collection of every Gauntlet game. I liked Destiny of the Emperor a lot though I didn't play it until 93. Dragon Quest/Warrior II is IMO a massive improvement over the first game, and the first JRPG I owned but its my second least favorite game in the series. River City Ransom is one of my favorite two player co-op NES games. I loved North and South and played it with anyone I could talk into trying it. And we owned the entire Lolo trilogy because my parents both loved the first game We rented Dr. Mario and mom bought copy next time we were at Walmart.

Double Dragon II was such an experience back then. I would light up every time we rented or borrowed it and my brother wanted a second player. I was soo terrible at the perspective leaps and conveyor belts that he'd get frustrated with my losing after we'd made it soo far. He finally got a copy for his birthday and we would finally get through it. Over and over again. A Boy and his Blob was also a personal favorite of mine. XEXYZ had such great music but when I was a kid, I died on the first level every single time. Final Fantasy was completely "meh" to me back then. I wasn't reading, games were my escape! Little secret here.. I HATED Zelda. Absolutely hated it. When I got Link's Awakening on GameBoy, I fell in love with it. Came back to NES to try to like it again, no-go. To this day, I still only like Link's Awakening and the Minish Cap. The rest could just not exist in my eyes. Snake, Rattle & Roll was AWESOME. Dick Tracy was a local rental in my town. My main memories with it was eating Cap'n Crunch and looking at the yellow on the label of the cart thinking that's what the game would taste like. Dream Master, another absolute favorite of mine. At the same time, I'm reminded of the Tales from the Darkside theme because I was in pre-school and so I would be home in the mornings. Tales from the Darkside came on every morning for whatever reason (I think it was on Sci-Fi channel; before it became SyFy- when they just became a channel). Absolutely loved Little Nemo.. Until that freakin' train level. Dr. Mario.. We had it but I never wanted to play it.
