SMB3
Megaman 1,2,3 (4,5,6 is pretty much the same but with not enough to make them worth playing)
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The arcade (TMNT2)
Duck Tales (not 2)
Section Z (frick you difficulty bullshittery)
Metroid, but you're better off playing Metroid Planets which is a fan project with some QoL and updated sprite work to suit the higher FPS.
I remember loading up Metroid on my NES Classic and getting my shit pushed in three screens in. My friends and I beat it back in the day but man it’s really fricking hard.
Yes, Metroid 1 is extremely low QoL. Map is pure memorization, you have to fill up your health from minor drops constantly, and boss fights are kind of pathetic too.
All SMB games
Final Fantasy
Zelda 1
Duck Hunt
Top Gun
Metroid
Blaster Master
Mega Man games
Castlevania games
Faxanadu
River City Ransom & Super Dodge Ball
There are none. Every essential games have been ported to better hardware, remade into better products for modern convenience, or were never as good as people thought they were in the first place.
The NES has become obsolete. I say this as someone who was 5 years old when the NES first released and have been an avid gamer my entire life.
eh i don't know. maybe like megaman, mario and castlevania. most games are like man dude shit
Faxandu
Zelda 2

Mario 1-3
Megaman 1-3
Dragon Warrior
Final Fantasy
Metroid
Blades of Steel
Blaster Master
Excite Bike
Kirby
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
There are some other greats like Bubble Bobble that definitive versions should be played with MAME instead.
Hope you've got a bro to play with.
MM4 is literally the best of the classic games.

a few of the mega mans
everything else's snes counterpart is much better
Anything by Sunsoft
Anything by Capcom
Anything by Konami
Most things by Nintendo themselves, minus a few really early games
Pro-Tip: Avoid early Sunsoft games, their story was one of redemption
It's too outdated to be worth playing if you don't have nostalgia. SNES is alright.

Oh yeah, and vertical hallways fricking EVERYWHERE.
Also getting hit WHILE going through doors...
>Metroid Planets
That looks nothing like OG Metroid. The only thing you need to play Metroid is a basic map which were on paper back then.
Duck Hunt
Super Mario Bros
Super Mario Bros 3
Zelda
Donkey Kong and Donkey Kong Jr
Metroid
TMNT
Final Fantasy 1 & 2
>TMNT
I would say specifically TMNT 2+3, 1 is really rough. Most people only know the beat-em-ups, and for good reason.
