Ultima III : Exodus (nes) - first party-based rpg I'd ever seen, I wasted many hours on that one.

Defenders of the Crown (nes) - A medieval conquest game where you fought over Britain. You could hire Robin Hood and his merry men to slit the enemies throats at night, reducing the number of troops they had!

Rampart (nes) - build a castle, add cannons, and try to knock the other guys castle out. Great fast paced strategy game.

Haha rampart! i played that a few times at the arcade. man i miss arcades too.

lets see NES i played of course Zelda, Wizards and Warriors, Double Dragon, Contra, Mario Bros., and Metal Gear

My two favorites as a kid/preteen.

Starflight II

Elite
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/113/Elite.html

As far as NES goes, you guys forgot to mention River City Ransom. Amazing game.

Dude i totally forgot about star flight. i need to get that game again i was too young to get into it. Millennium 2.2 was kind of like it.

 

[Seratt]

I never played Millennium. I like playing these old ass games though, so I'll check it out.

Ran through starflight 2 again a few months ago. Always enjoyed it way more then the first. Elite I played on an old Apple IIe. Shit, think that was back in like 85 or so.

Elite is hard to play again. It's definitely dated now.

 

[GaidenFocus]

Yea i read up on elite and it seemed like one of those games that is bad ass at the time, but unplayable now. I downloaded Ultima Underworld again and tried to play it but its all mouse controlled...very annoying.

Also @Seratt if you download millenium for amiga, disable fast ram. it causes bugs in the game.

I liked it but thought Sim City 2000 was better
