DC Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 What was the best 8/16 bit game you've ever played? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane99 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Best 8-bit game imo is probably Super Mario Bros. 3. The game looks beautiful even today, and plays perfectly. It's my personal favorite game ever. And the best 16-bit game would probably be Super Mario World for the SNES. Donkey Kong Country gets a honorable mention as well. But there are so many other games out there that I love from both generations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Blackangel Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Damn, you had to ask a question like this. I'm going to ignore big titles like SMB and Zelda for this question. My favorite 8 bit game would have to be Blaster Master. It's a perfect mix of fantasy and sci-fi. For 16 bit, that one has to go to Legend Of The Mystical Ninja. It's a little cartooney, and often virtually impossible, but it's a blast to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said SMB3 for 8bit myself, but there's so many other games I'd want to include, like Batman, The Legend of Zelda, SMB1 and 2, and so many more. We'd be here all day if we had to pick a bunch of our favorites lol. But yeah, Blaster Master is pretty decent. I never beat it, but have been meaning to check it out again.

killamch89 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Tetris Pac-man Street Fighter 2 Super Mario Kart Super Mario World Super Metroid Mortal Kombat II And so many more. I can't really pick one if I'm being honest. Heatman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't pick one either, so I just went with a long time favorite of mine. I probably have 100 NES games, and it's also my favorite system. So this was an immensely difficult question for me.

Seriously, there are so many of them that you have to sit and calm down to start listing them out, otherwise you will miss out so many of them.

Justin11 Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 -Mortal Kombat - Sim Earth - The Battle Of Olympus. This are few 8/16 bit games I've played do far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Probably Super Metroid. The controls are a little funky by modern standards, but it's amazing how fresh most of the game feels even now. Obviously a massively influential game on the incredibly popular metroidvania genre. Chrono Trigger is a close second. I firmly believe that CT is timeless (ironically?) and if it were released today it would still be hailed as a masterpiece. Heatman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I replayed Chrono Trigger about 3 months ago and it still felt like a new game in every way possible. Just like you put it, it's a game that feels timeless with how it's designed. The developers really put in the work in making Chrono Trigger and it's why till date, it's still one of the best appreciated games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane99 Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Also, Donkey Long Country counts as 16 bit right? Makes me wonder, with it's early 3d, wasn't it more than 16 bit? Maybe I'm wrong, but if it is 16 bit, then I gotta say, that's pretty impressive looking graphics for a 16 bit game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
