Much like my top 3 PSone list, my top 5 NES games didn’t come without much contemplation. How did I have so much more patience back then?

Maybe they weren’t life changing, but man, they created some gnarly memories. Memories were made, and much like the 20 years spent with my PlayStation I’ve compiled a difficult list of my top NES games. I commend Nintendo’s stance on trying new things, such as the Wii and the Wii U, although I don’t care for either, but it will always hold a special place in my heart, being the first gaming console I ever owned, and I still own my personal one to this day. While I don’t care much for Nintendo now, the nostalgia is far gone, I’m not much of a Mario fan and I’ve lost my way with the Zelda franchise. Nintendo took a chance after the great console crash of 1983 and at the 1985 CES they unveiled their attack on the living room with the Nintendo Entertainment System, later that year it was released to retailers with a few hiccups, but by 1986 the rest is history. Sure it didn’t change my life like the PSone, but it was a stepping stone into a world that would transcend hobbies. The schedule was last updated Maat 13:23:36.Another anniversary post? C’mon Burke you can do better than this, what is this, Buzzfeed? I know, I know, but my love for these anniversaries go beyond clickbait, a decade since Metal Gear Solid 3 and 20 years of PlayStation are huge events that shaped my life as a gamer, and then I remembered Nintendo unveiled their Nintendo Entertainment System at the 1985 CES and knew we had to to talk about it.
