Top 200 Nintendo Games

[Punisher]

It seems Nintendo Power has caught the list fever. They are listing the top 200 Nintendo games of all time, starting with this issue. There were some weird titles in it, and some I've never heard of. I think these were the notables.

Mario Paint, which I've never played, has come in at number 162, beating some important games such as Metroid Prime 2: Echoes(174) and Timesplitters 2(165).
Zombies Ate My Neighbors comes in at at 195, just one behind Maniac Mansion. I have played neither, but I do know a lot of people that love both.
Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life (which I have played) starts off the list at being number 200.
Personally, I don't see the point of lists like these, but I guess since every other magazine has been doing a list of some sort, NP felt the need to follow suit. NP also listed the five worst games of all time, with the incedible Superman 64 claiming number 1. Charlie's Angels started it off at number 5.

It should be no surprise and I expect Ocarina of Time to claim numero uno, or Tetris.

Mario Paint is awesome. They really need to make a DS version (hell, my friends and I think that PictoChat should have just been a stripped down version of Mario Paint to begin with).

Well NP started the list fever with their 100th issue where they had Top 100 Nintendo Games and it seems that they are doing this for their 200th issue.

I don't remember the 100th issue of Nintendo Power (Maybe because I was not subscribed) but I can see in the top 10.

(Maybe not in this order)

Ocarina of Time
Super Mario Bros 3
Super Mario World
A Link to the Past
Super Mario Bros
Super Metroid
Super Mario 64
Metroid Prime
Original Super Smash Bros
Legend of Zelda

Tetris could be there too.

Tetris was #2 actually.

Super Mario 64 was #1

That issue came out not long after Goldeneye did. I don't think even OoT was out back then but it might have been (SSB wasn't for sure). I remember Turtles in Time made the list. I wonder if it will again (probably not).

Hey you're right Mario Paint is a MUST for the DS. I mean come on it's genus!

Zelda came out the year after Goldeneye. As for Mario Paint DS, yes yes, oh god yes! Seriously, the whole painting program, composing music, and my favorite, the fly swatting game would all be perfect!

Was Donkey Kong Country 1,2, and 3 on the list?Since they only showed numbers 200- 160, no it wasn't. I'm sure that at least one of them is somewhere in that list, but I'll have to wait a month to find out.

I think all three were in the old one but I recall at least DKC was.
