I just went through and cleaned and then alphabetized my NES collection, seeing as I used a computer to alphabetize the things, I now have a list, so I figured I might as well throw it round places that might have some interest in collections and such.

As far as Nintendo hardware, I have 2 NES's one with the pins replaced, 3 proper controllers, 2 cheap third party controllers, one micro switch joystick, a nintendo advantage, one of those power pads, and a orange zapper (I had a grey one, but it went missing). Nothing spectacular, but not a bad setup either.
...I think you own more games for your NES than I own for all my consoles combined.
Lots of familiar titles there, although I haven't played most of them. Lolo is good though! I really don't think that Adventures of Lolo gets enough attention. Then again, it has been forever since I played it.
Dig Dug 2 was just kind of... weird... I guess I never got into it.
Why do you have so many copies of Super Mario/Duck Hunt and Super Mario 3?

It happens when I acquire peoples entire collections. As for Mario 3, one of the copies started to glitch on me, so I bought another one, then within the next month I acquired someones collection who had it.
My collection pales in comparison to yours, but I have played quite a bit more NES games then I have in my collection.
Mine are as follows (as I see in my cabinet):
Blaster Master
Castlevania
Castlevania 2: Simon's Quest
Castlevania 3: Dracula's Curse
Excitebike
Kirby's Adventure
Mach Rider
Mario Bros.
Metal Gear
Metroid
Ninja Gaiden
Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt
Super Mario Bros. 2
Super Mario Bros. 3
Wrecking Crew
I swear I thought I had a copy of Snake's Revenge somewhere. My bro must have it.
I have an original NES, two official controllers, and a orange Zapper.

You should do some room pics in the post a pic thread. That'd be cool to see.
True. I'd only get Bomberman II for collection purposes, but the first one... I'll pass. I already have it on the MSX anyway (though pirated) as well as the far superior port included in Bomberboy.
_________________ Metroid: Other M - As in "There's the good Metroid games... we chose to do one of some Other Make altogether."
Yeah, I've played the original Bomberman on the NES a long time ago (as my bro has it), and I don't really remember it being very good. So I'll pass on that.
Besides, if I really wanted to play it (for whatever reason that may be), I can just burrow it from my brother.

about 95% of the nes library is rubbish in my view, but if i was to have a collection, crappy ones with historical precedence would still be included ^_^

*does some calculations in his head* I think more then 5% of nes games are decent, under half of them of course (true for all systems, even the dreamcast and snes, which were both quite high on the curve), but considering there are about 1000ish released Nintendo games, and most top 100 list is still missing a good number of games that are classic while not having great deals of complete crap in them, that means over 10 percent are decent, in my opinion it fares better then the PS1 in that regard, which had a similar number of games. (both numbers I only know from roms)
--edit--
Bomberman on the NES doesn't have much historical significance. It's just an inferior port. Metal Gear on the NES doesn't have historical significance for the same reason. Also, I have a collection to play, and a great deal of games to get. There are three ways I'll get games at this point in time: I see that looks like it would be a decent addition for dirt cheap in a store. I buy a game I REALLY want off ebay or from a store. or I acquire someone elses collection as a whole, and integrate it into mine.

But the true original Bomberman was released on the MSX. And I'm quite sure that the NES version vastly improved upon it. Unless you know something that I don't...?

Yeah, you're right... I thought NES bomberman was released a tad later then it was...
Yeah, The NES doesn't have a crazy lot of awesome games. I'm not sure I would have bought a 2nd or 3rd replacement system as the years went by if it weren't for those awesome Megaman games.
other then the Megaman series, my favorite NES games are Mario 3, Yoshi, and in terms of how I often I still play them probably Teenage Mutant ninja Turtles and perhaps Metal Gear.
The Bomberman game really isn't that good. Very slow paced, boring and difficult or perhaps just frustrating... I bought it during my bomberman fandom peak back in the day when I was grabbing anything bomberman I could find.
Yeah; well nonetheless, I agree with you that the NES games weren't the best. Still, something nice to have for a collector.
I'm really not all that much of a collector, I have a collection, but my NES is plugged in right now, it gets about as much play as any of my other systems. I very rarely buy things for collector interest, cause I don't have money for that when it can go to things I legitimately want to play on the original console, and there will be NES games like that for a long long time... heck, when the megamans aren't on my high aquire list, you know i have a good list of things I want.
Pirates! (for myself) and Sky Kid (for my brother), hopefully I'll actually do that sometime.
Got them, will have to edit the original post sometime. Along with some other stuff, the yotsuba mangas I didn't have yet, a case for my phone, 2 snes controllers and a usb to snes adapter.
