RodLightning Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I'm just getting into Famicom for the first time, so have nothing new to suggest. I have been looking for a list of Famicom exclusive titles. Thanks for making a very enjoyable video! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+GoldLeader Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 That is a Great List! I have some of those games, but not all...Like I have Holy Diver, Recca, Splatterhouse...etc. I haven't played it much but I also enjoy that Star Wars game on Famicom...I don't know if it's the game so much as the license and the wacky way they did it, almost like it's Star Wars characters trapped in a Nintendo game...

+GoldLeader Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 (edited) Hey wasn't Arkanoid 2 an exclusive? I haven't played it, but always thought that it would be worthwhile. Edited April 8, 2016 by GoldLeader Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the list had an 11 Star Wars would of been on there. Next video I do will definitely have a montage of honorable mentions at the end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikey.shake Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Nice video! I've got a modest little Famicom collection, and try to stick to "only Japan-only games" for the most part. I ALWAYS like to suggest TwinBee, which may be cute, but is a great Konami shooter, along with Parodius, for the same reason. (It's CRAZY.) And I'd be remiss if I didn't say that Yume Penguin Monogatari was worth a try... a platform/shooter hybrid about a penguin who is "too fat to love". (What?!?) It's Mrs. Shake's favorite Famicom import. (And even though it's not as good as the SMS version, the Famicom port of Fantasy Zone is maybe worth mentioning, because it's still fun, and a completely different game than the version Tengen released here in the States.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually considered Yume Penguin but I just could not get into the overweight penguin theme. It definitely would have made the cut if I did a top 15. Twinbee is a fun series but just did not hold up against the other shooters I listed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madhatter667 Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Pretty good list! You got Recca, Kid Dracula, Gradius 2, Holy Diver, Splatterhouse, which are all pretty great games. Most of them will set you back some money now. I'm gonna hunt that Joy Mech Fight. I would almost recommend Parodius over Gradius 2...but it's all pretty good stuff. If you had space for FDS, and are a Mario die hard... All Night Nippon Super Mario Bros. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Hierophant Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 I'm surprised no one has mentioned Final Fantasy III, Lagrange Point or Just Breed. I would also offer Bio Miracle Bokutte Upa, which did appear on cartridge late in the system's lifespan. Esper Dream 2 is a another Konami parody series. The two Fire Emblem games from Nintendo are worth considering. TwinBee 3 and Uchuu Keibitai SDF are good shooters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madhatter667 Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Oh oh... I can't remember the title in Japanese, but it roughly translates to Hammerin' Harry in English. Fun one. Cartridge based, rather than FDS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madhatter667 Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 To extend this list a bit further (seriously... top 15? lol)... Devil World. This was one of the "scanline" carts from Nintendo. If you like maze games a la Pac-Man, and have a sense of humor regarding religious topics, this game is silly fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
