I AGREE W/LAZER on the NES ADVANTAGE! never beat Mike Tyson went to friends 3 cousins 1 NES by the time I got to play time to go home, beat Glass Joe I think King Hippo that's it! Had the code but should watch a speed run to learn what I missed! Spy vs Spy making sure they weren't looking! Mario 2 on SNES I THINK 3. MARIO World was the 1st beat & 100%! Was Street Fighter Mortal Kombat kid. Lots of rentals from grocery store they called mom 1st for movies and NES 1 time had uncut sheet of baseball cards I think Fleer or Donruss I know it wasn't Starter, haven't seen a Beckett or Wizard in years had a 5 years sub to GamePro! Had EGM EGM2. Ah Paper REMEMBER PAPER!
This was the year the NES just couldn't stop selling, especially close to Christmas. It was nuts, and everybody would run out. Even one dude who owned a small video rental store back then told me he sold like 200 a day at one point. He's retired now, but still remembers this as his most lucrative period ever in his life.
1988! That was one heck of a year for NES owners!! - Contra - RC Pro Am - Double Dragon - Jackal - Super Mario Bros. 2 - Bubble Bobble - Blaster Master - Bionic Commando - Castlevania II: Simons Quest - Zelda II: The Adventure of Link My Top Ten (in no particular order) of games you mentioned in this list!!
I gotta say, '88 may very well be the best year for the NES. That was right smack at the height of Nintendo mania and it just seems like a ton of the best games for the system release then.
*LIFE FORCE!!!* 🤘😎🤘 That one was far and away one of my all time favorite NES games… the graphics were mind blowing, great soundtrack, incredible bosses and just _fun._ I’m a little surprised you didn’t show the overhead levels; those ships looked _so_ cool, color shading had a real 3D effect. Also, re: power up loss: up-up, down-down, left-right left-right, B A, START, brother. 🤘 Also, Jackal was another _fantastic_ Konami release.
Zelda 2 is definitely one of my favorite Zeldas. This is probably due to nostalgia since it was one of the first NES games other than Mario that I played. I remember seeing it at a rental place and got my parents to rent it for me. I was blown away when I played it.
I got my NES March of 88 and we would rent and borrow games from family and friends a lot. Adventure Island is one we borrowed that became one of my mom's favorites. She also loved Super Mario Bros. 2, and Bubble Bobble. The first game I ever 'blind-bought' was Blaster Master. I loved watching the intro, along with the music and the option for 'out of tank' and in-tank driving and shooting along with getting upgrades to Sophia.
Such a great year for games, especially for the NES. Fwiw, there is a "super" R.C. Pro Am "sequel" on the Sega Genesis, "Championship Pro Am", basically an up-res'ed 16-bit version of the original NES game.
1988 to 1993 are the best 5 years in the history of video games and entertainment in general... from Mario Bros, Mega Man, WWF, TMNT and the Ghostbusters .... to Jurassic Park and Sonic .... the best 5 years.
Renegade was my favorite arcade game at the time it was released so the I waited with baited breath for the NES port. I remember my dad driving around to all the Toys R' Us places in the state to try and find it and we eventually found a store that had one copy left. I was so happy and the port didn't disappoint.
My late mother actually beat Zelda II back in the 1990s, and I watched her beat Dark Link (Shadow Link?) and beat the game. It's still a very hard game and I couldn't believe she was able to do it.
Zelda 2, my favorite NES game. Mega childhood nostalgia and always loved the darker, more mature tone. The fact that people generally like it less and consider it the "black sheep" only makes me like and appreciate it that much more. Wish the series would lean more into this tone, atmosphere, and art direction. The game manual's artwork is on point.
@@catsaregovernmentspies Yep. Title screen is top tier and still maybe my fave to this day.. since 1988. I'm now goin on 38 so that's really gotta say somethin lol.
Laugh if you must, but I LOVE the McDonald’s themed game called “MC KIds”. So much nostalgia and I still watch the gameplays here on RUclips every now and then.
Great NES video. Brought back a lot of good memories from my childhood. A lot of late nights of tears, junk food devouring, and painful thumb cramps. LOL I have to say Blaster Master 16:13 is my all time favorite NES game. It was one of the few games I bought and played religiously. Bionic Commando 18:03 is my other all-time favorite NES game also. Like you said, these two games were part of my very small library of games. Thanks for bringing back such fond memories.
Damn John, you had it easy! 😋 My friend and I were getting up at 3-3:30am to bike miles to the paper station (sometimes in the Florida rain) to start folding, rolling, rubber-banding and sleeving tons of papers that we then loaded into the back of a pickup truck belonging to one old guy named "Warren." We did hours worth of deliveries with that guy, probably covering almost all of Key West! And I'll admit that when we had some cancellations, we would throw 'extra special' papers that were VERY MUCH like in Paperboy. *We loved this game!* 🤣🤣🤣 (A paperboy gets REALLY GOOD at throwing papers at things over the course of a few years!)
1988 is near and daer to me. I was 13, and I bought the NES Action Set, and a few games with my very first paycheck working for the Summer. T&C Surf Design, Double Dragon, Skate or Die and Super Mario 2 were in my early collection. A few months later turtles was added to my collection, but that was '89. Thanks for the great memories. But oh man do I wish I still had my old collection. Thanks again for the video.
The year I began to study and work. I bought the NES and began buying magazines that my parents wouldn't buy me because they said they were to expensive to be magazines. Had a few of these games. Neat list good showing and cool video John!👉😃👈
Loved T and C surf designs game and merch! I was in sacramento as a young lad and it was super popular. We had shirts, stickers, skateboards...etc Anything with the yin yang logo was amazing to us as kids!
I played almost all of these games! Man some of these are really really good! Starting around this time for the next maybe five years or so is one of the if not the greatest time for gaming! Nintendo was absolutely everywhere! Great time to be a kid 🎮
We had most of the 1988 NES games that were also on the Sega Master System save for Paperboy (which we had on the Atari Lynx instead) so at least 5 or 6 of these if you count Wonder Boy as being the same game as Adventure Island. I've never played the NES version of Adventure Island but I was under the impression that it was pretty much 1:1 identical to Wonder Boy on the Sega Master System save for the character sprite, which had to be changed on NES due to the weirdness with the licensing where Hudsonsoft had the rights to make an NES version of Wonder Boy but they had to change the title and character because the Wonder Boy character himself was a Sega IP.
Mr. Riggs, you and I both agree about Zelda 2 it's my favorite game, was my childhood. I'm 41 and I beat it last year without dying. People are always amazed that I can beat this game but I don't find it hard, but also 30 years of practice don't hurt either :)
Looks like I missed out on so many good NES games as a kid. My favorite NES memory was actually at the local Kmart when they were discontinuing the last of their NES games and there was only 1 game left on the shelf for 80 cents. It was Life Force Salamander, mum caved in and purchased it for me and damn I played that game to death.
Golgo 13 is a personal favourite, despite some its janky gameplay and the insufferable first-person mazes (hence why we had graph paper to make maps!). I knew nothing about the manga it was based on or anything else about it. I just loved the story and ambience.
I got my nes in Christmas of 88. Man by the time I started to play these games, many of my friends got the games mentioned and or they were for rental. It always seemed to me that everyone had t&c surf design, skate or die and Rambo
I've always thought it was funny how back in the day, EVERYONE had RC Pro-Am, but these days, you almost never hear anything about it. Just the same, nobody was talking about Wonder Boy back then, but now, it's become super popular, but the fact that we're even having these conversations in this day and age, 35 years later, just... what a time to be alive... And I will side with you: I like Mario 2, Simon's Quest, and Adventure of Link much more than their predecessors, though for how long and weird Mario 3 is, I'm not 100% sure which of those I like better: that weird, dreamlike experience or the one that takes place in an actual dream. Also weird to hear how many people hate Zelda 2 now; back when it came out, it seemed like everyone was totally enthralled with just how huge the game was, and how interesting the world was to explore; people talk about how big Breath of the Wild is, but geographically, it's about the same size as the first Zelda, because you still can't go any further north than Death Mountain.
Recently I randomly chatted online in a RUclips comments section with the creator of the Paper Boy soundtrack, I can't even remember how it came to be, but he went into great detail at what inspired him etc... It was an interesting conversation.
There was more than couch co-op. This was probably a little after the heyday of mail-in computer games, where you sent into your instructions every month, and got mailed back the results in multiplayer games, but they were still around.
88 was the height of Nintendo fever. Played a lot of contra and Mario 2 that year. My grandpa wouldn’t let me play Zelda 2 cause he thought I would delete his save file.
The music trick on Mario 2, I accidentally figured that out way back when I was probably 3 (around 89 or 90). I still have a difficult time trying to do it today.
Sorry, in '88 I had a Master System. But i played SMB at friends houses every chance i got. Fun retrospective of some of the best years in gaming. So many classic games and series.
1988 was the year of the sequels for sure. Castlevania II, Super Mario Brothers 2, Zelda 2, as well as Mega Man 2 and Double Dragon 2 being released only in Japan.
Renegade (as Nekketsu Kouha Kunio-kun) actually predates Double Dragon. DD refined the Kunio-kun formula and was originally supposed to be a sequel. Renegade changed the setting from schoolyard brawls to a run-down city setting based on The Warriors. Other Kunio-kun series games also made it to the NES, like River City Ransom (Downtown Nekketsu Monogatari) and Super Spike V'Ball. City Connection originally featured a girl driving her Honda City. Why they changed it to a guy, I don't know.
My crowning achievement of the NES was beating contra on a single life last year. It took me a roughly a month of grinding, but I prevailed and the vile red falcon was vanquished… for another day
On top of this list of all time classics, we saw the launch of Nintendo Power magazine. Dare I say I think 1988 might have been the year that Nintendo truly brought video games back and took over the world?
30 games were you playing on NES back in 1987 ruclips.net/video/kryQmqzoI5k/видео.html

BROUGHT TO YOU BY CORONA FAMILIAR!
I always thought a sprite swapped RC Pro-Am to Mario Kart characters would be fun
Have you ever considered trying to make a Zelda II style game? Maybe a Yeah-Yeah Beebis III???
This was the year the NES just couldn't stop selling, especially close to Christmas. It was nuts, and everybody would run out.

1988! That was one heck of a year for NES owners!!
- Contra
- RC Pro Am
- Double Dragon
- Jackal
- Super Mario Bros. 2
- Bubble Bobble
- Blaster Master
- Bionic Commando
- Castlevania II: Simons Quest
- Zelda II: The Adventure of Link
My Top Ten (in no particular order) of games you mentioned in this list!!
I much prefer Ivan Ironman Stewart's Super Off Road to RC Pro Am.
I gotta say, '88 may very well be the best year for the NES. That was right smack at the height of Nintendo mania and it just seems like a ton of the best games for the system release then.

Blindly buying a game based solely on the back of the box screenshots was an experience I miss from back then.
Borrowing / trading games from friends was essential as a kid, maybe if you’re lucky u owned 7-10 games total
For me Ice Hockey is one of the very few NES games that's as fun in 2023 as it was in 1988.
Some serious classics here from 1988! I remember most of them well.
Contra is my all-time favorite video game of any system ever.
My buddy is one of those dudes who can beat it without getting hit. I had to see it to believe it. I saw it. It was impressive.
Agreed 🤝 💯 percent my friend.
@@mygirlfriendismean I did it. It's on my channel. It's not easy to do that all the time.
Metal Slug
@@tonyp9313 Agreed i was surprised when i did it all those years ago and i did it with the default lives.
Such a great year for games, especially for the NES.
Fwiw, there is a "super" R.C. Pro Am "sequel" on the Sega Genesis, "Championship Pro Am", basically an up-res'ed 16-bit version of the original NES game.
RC Pro Am 2 is a game on NES. It's very rare (no pun intended), but it exists.
What a great year for NES games. I was 9 and it was the first year I owned the system.
1988 to 1993 are the best 5 years in the history of video games and entertainment in general... from Mario Bros, Mega Man, WWF, TMNT and the Ghostbusters .... to Jurassic Park and Sonic .... the best 5 years.

Wish the series would lean more into this tone, atmosphere, and art direction. The game manual's artwork is on point.
Zelda 2 had great music that really set the tone.
@@catsaregovernmentspies Yep. Title screen is top tier and still maybe my fave to this day.. since 1988. I'm now goin on 38 so that's really gotta say somethin lol.
What an amazing year for video games!
1988 was an amazing year for NES!!
Bubble Bobble is still my favorite game to this day. Awesome game
In 88 I was ten, I played ALLLLL these games!!! I liked and beat most of these games!! Good times 😁🤘
Laugh if you must, but I LOVE the McDonald’s themed game called “MC KIds”. So much nostalgia and I still watch the gameplays here on RUclips every now and then.

Very interesting video Riggs! Keep up the great work, I admire your passion.
This may be the year of games I am most nostalgic for. Great as always. thanks John
Rc Pro Am was awsome on sleepovers and weekends
John always like your “what you where playing” and “ranking” episodes always awesome
Such great games and a great year. So many memories.
Damn John, you had it easy! 😋

(A paperboy gets REALLY GOOD at throwing papers at things over the course of a few years!)
oh damn! Yeah, I just had my block from busy street to busy street. Nothing big.
I think this was the best year of gaming in the 1980s, in terms of the games that came out here and in Japan.
1988 is near and daer to me.
I was 13, and I bought the NES Action Set, and a few games with my very first paycheck working for the Summer.

Great year for games. I was playing a lot of Simon's Quest, Mario 2, Zelda 2 & Rampage
Loved Rampage on the arcade, was meh subpar to play on the nes
The Master System version is pretty good too 😉 And it has 3 characters 😎@@srobeck77
Loved T and C surf designs game and merch! I was in sacramento as a young lad and it was super popular. We had shirts, stickers, skateboards...etc Anything with the yin yang logo was amazing to us as kids!

I agree with you 100% on Mario 2. I love that game!
So many great games. Those 4 in a row of SMB 2, Antici...pation, Blaster Master and Bubble Bobble. Loved them,
Loved Cobra Command. Never beat it as a kid, but I remember getting pretty far though. I thought the play pattern felt rewarding.
I got my NES in 1988 when I was 8. Great year for NES games. I still have my NES and games (CIB).
The NES has so many hidden gems .
Blaster Master was one of my favs. The way it changed perspectives and styles was ahead of its time.
Love these videos, John
Great list John! Yes that paperboy crashing sprite is horrendous but the sound when you would crash was amazing! Haha😂😂
What a year for the nes. I wish I could go back in time lol.
There was a Super RC Pro-Am. It's on the Sega Genesis and it's called Championship Pro-AM
Ironically enough, Super RC Pro Am was on the Game Boy.
We had most of the 1988 NES games that were also on the Sega Master System save for Paperboy (which we had on the Atari Lynx instead) so at least 5 or 6 of these if you count Wonder Boy as being the same game as Adventure Island.

The NES years were a magical time for me & my brothers & friends.
Thank you for the memories, sir!
I wasn’t alive until December 19, 1988. It’s awesome to see games that were released during my birth year.
Mr. Riggs, you and I both agree about Zelda 2 it's my favorite game, was my childhood. I'm 41 and I beat it last year without dying. People are always amazed that I can beat this game but I don't find it hard, but also 30 years of practice don't hurt either :)
Great video. Lots of games I never heard of and I grew up with NES.
As a kid who loved skateboards in the pacific northwest t&c,skate or die and adventure island were my go to games.

From A Zelda II huge fan to another, great taste Sir, my respects.

Omg I forgot all about T and C Surf Designs. I LOVED that game. And also RC pro am. I was flawless at that game
In 1988 the only thing I was doing was swimming around in my mom's uterus.
Man, so much of my NES collection came from this year.
There was more than couch co-op. This was probably a little after the heyday of mail-in computer games, where you sent into your instructions every month, and got mailed back the results in multiplayer games, but they were still around.
oh man! i loved, and still do, love the adventure island games, 2 and 3 were my favs, but all 4 of them were quite fun and addictive.
So looks like 1988 might be the greatest year for Videogames of all time
Anticipation was so fun!
Don't quote me on this, but I'm pretty sure that the Contra code works on Lifeforce as well.
Great video and list of games‼️ Zelda 2 is one of my favorites👏
“Leave the door open, huh? Alright…that’s cool.” 😂😂😂
1988 is the year I remember most or played most Nes. All these games I remember playing with friends a lot
88 was the height of Nintendo fever. Played a lot of contra and Mario 2 that year. My grandpa wouldn’t let me play Zelda 2 cause he thought I would delete his save file.
14:20 YES!!! I love hearing other people having this opinion re: Mario 2
Goddamn what a great year for the NES. Enjoyed all of these.
The music trick on Mario 2, I accidentally figured that out way back when I was probably 3 (around 89 or 90). I still have a difficult time trying to do it today.
Sorry, in '88 I had a Master System. But i played SMB at friends houses every chance i got.
Fun retrospective of some of the best years in gaming. So many classic games and series.
1988 was the year of the sequels for sure. Castlevania II, Super Mario Brothers 2, Zelda 2, as well as Mega Man 2 and Double Dragon 2 being released only in Japan.
I haven’t watched the video yet, but seeing “NES” and “1988” together made me think of one word: Contra.
Dude born in 1988 I was likely playing with myself 😂
mega man 2 is still hands down my faveorite game of 88
i was right in the middle of jr high when all these games came out
Thank you for the Zelda 2 love and the Rocky Horror reference
Every game here is amazing
Renegade started my love of side scroller beat em ups as a kid, well and double dragon of course.
man..... what a BANGER year
Karnov was awesome. I absolutely loved it.
I was playing Zelda 2,Mega Man 2,Contra,Super Mario Bros.2,and Castlevania 2 in 1988.
super mario brothers 2 was so mind blowing for me as a kid. The enemies shoot at me, and I can pick up vegetables (gross!) and hit them? amazing fun
Hometown Yakima! Spend a many quarters at Joker's Wild in the Valley Mall growing up.
Renegade (as Nekketsu Kouha Kunio-kun) actually predates Double Dragon. DD refined the Kunio-kun formula and was originally supposed to be a sequel. Renegade changed the setting from schoolyard brawls to a run-down city setting based on The Warriors.

LOTS of great games there!
Love me some NES Gun Smoke. It's better than the arcade version.
I don't agree. I wasn't a fan of the Wanted Poster thing at all.
My crowning achievement of the NES was beating contra on a single life last year. It took me a roughly a month of grinding, but I prevailed and the vile red falcon was vanquished… for another day
On top of this list of all time classics, we saw the launch of Nintendo Power magazine. Dare I say I think 1988 might have been the year that Nintendo truly brought video games back and took over the world?
In 1988 i never saw 30 nes games at once. We had two games super mario bros and duck hunt.
Even our local video stores barely had 20 on a good day.
This channel rocks, I need to hang with this dude 💯
You have the best videos !!!
Hopefully you do 1989 too. That was like, peak NES era.
I played SM2, Skate or Die, Ice Hockey, RC Pro AM and Zelda 2. Still wish I had the cartridges.
