Animal Crossing games may be all about creating your own private paradise (and <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/most-convincing-animal-crossing-fake-art/damon-davis" target="_blank">decorating it with beautiful paintings</a>), but everyone knows the real fun comes from interacting with all the colorful characters.

The original Nintendo NES console was released in 1983 and was the <a href="/list/the-most-shameless-video-game-console-knockoffs/benjamin-dunn?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">most popular game systems</a> of all time. One interesting aspect of the NES was that <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/rare-nes-games/kyle-townsend" target="_blank">games were produced </a>by hundreds of Nintendo Entertainment System game developers, both licensed and unlicensed.

Fortunately for retro game lovers everywhere, Nintendo recently announced they will be selling a miniature version of the original console in November 2016. The console will come with 30 games pre-loaded on the system, including Mega Man 2, Super Mario Bros. 3, and more.

The Nintendo Entertainment System now has a <a href="/list/hardest-nes-games/kyle-townsend" target="_blank">cult following</a> amongst classic game collectors. For that reason, many of the games mentioned below will be hard to find outside of collections and may require you to spend hours searching online classified.

List of the Best Games for the Sega Genesis. These are not all the games, but they are the best as voted on by gamers. Sega Genesis was the second console released in the United States by the Sega Corporation. It was meant as a rival for the popular Super Nintendo and offered 16 bit entertainment. The Genesis had multiple successes throughout it's life span, but the most popular would have to be Sonic the Hedgehog, which was the Mario of Sega. This is not to say that other games like Altered Beast, NBA Jam and of course, Mortal Kombat, were not huge games as well. (Every gamer can tell you that Mortal Kombat on the Genesis was a much better version if only for the fact that the characters bleed instead of sweated.)Since this is the greatest games for the Sega Genesis, vote up your favorites and add your own if they aren't on the list.

What are the best Turbografx-16 games?

TurboGrafx-16 games were produced by a number of top developers such as Hudson Soft and Namco, and primarily distributed to gamers around the world by NEC. The game console, produced by a collaboration between Hudson Soft and NEC, was sold between 1987 and 1995, moving 10 million units worldwide.

In addition to working with the Hudson Soft HuCard media cards, the TurboGrafx-16, with a special add-on, also worked with CD-ROM media, making it a fierce competitor with the Sega Mega Drive.

Despite the advanced hardware, which set a Guinness World Record for it&#39;s small size, the TurboGrafx-16 video game console could not compete with the top names available for the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/nintendo-entertainment-system-games-list-of-nes-games/video-games-by-console">Nintendo Entertainment System</a> and was phased out completely by the mid 1990s.

Best Games for Super Nintendo

List of the best games ever released for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. The 16-bit Super Nintendo (or SNES) video game console was available beginning in 1990 in Japan (where it was known as the Super Famicom) and the following year in North America, and was not discontinued until 2003 and 1999, respectively. During the 16-bit era (which primarily featured SNES competition from the Sega Genesis console), Super Nintendo was the world&#39;s best-selling video game system. Over 39 million SNES units were sold around the world (still shy of the incredible 61.91 million original Nintendo systems sold.) Even into the 32-bit era, Super Nintendo systems remained commonplace in homes around the world.

794 total games <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-snes-games-nintendo-switch/kyle-townsend" target="_blank">were officially released</a> for the Super Nintendo system. The first games available for the new system were &quot;Super Mario World,&quot; &quot;F-Zero,&quot; &quot;Pilotwings,&quot; &quot;SimCity&quot; and &quot;Gradius III.&quot; &quot;Super Mario World&quot; - which was often bundled and sold with the system in its early days - remained the best-selling SNES game of all time, with over 20 million units sold. Many Super Nintendo titles <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/underrated-snes-games/kyle-townsend" target="_blank">have remained popular</a> through the use of emulators, which can currently recreate the SNES experience on computers.

Though arcades are a bit harder to find nowadays, true gamers (and 90s kids) will never forget the great 90s arcade games that took all our quarters growing up. Of course, we happily fed those machines our change and tokens to reach the next level or get another race in. Regardless, some of the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-best-classic-arcade-games" target="_blank">best arcade games of all time</a> came out of the 90s, and they remain today as many of our favorites—and have even been recreated for a range of gaming systems. Simply put, nothing serves up a dose of 1990s nostalgia like a list of the best arcade games from the decade.&nbsp;While it's hard to beat the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-80s-arcade-games/video-games-lists" target="_blank">top arcade games of the 80s</a>, the 90s brought with it some incredibly fun games. For whatever reason, shoot 'em up style games—or light shooters—reigned as some of the most popular games throughout the 90s, such as Lethal Enforcers, Gunblade NY, Area 51, and so many more. Similarly, fighting games like Mortal Kombat&nbsp;II and&nbsp;Street Fighter II were also taking kids quarters left and right. And we can't forget the side-scrolling classic, The Simpsons, among a plethora of racing and sports games. Needless to say, the 90s arcade games did not disappoint.&nbsp;Do you have a favorite arcade game from the 90s? Find it on the list, along with any other games you miss and vote them&nbsp;up!

For many of us, there is no greater joy than putting on our headset, meeting in a lobby with friends, and gaming for hours on end. In an age where the internet is everything, we decided to rank the best games to play online, and we want you to help us. What is your favorite game to play online? This list pits first person shooters against MMORPGS, and survival titles against strategy games. The only real commonality between these titles is that playing online is crucial to the gaming experience, so vote for whatever games you enjoy on the internet the most.Playing online is becoming such a standard in gaming that some games actually cannot be played offline. Take Hearthstone for example, or the upcoming Dungeon Defenders 2. Is making games online exclusive some kind of smoke and mirror to push microtransactions on us? It's certainly part of the business model for many of these games, but the real intention seems to be delivering the greatest gaming experience to the consumer.Vote up your favorite online games, and even add some titles to the list if you feel they deserve to be here.

If someone asked you what <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-greatest-rpg-video-games-ever-made?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">the greatest video game</a> franchise of all time was, how would you answer? If you grew up in the 80&#39;s and 90&#39;s, classic franchises like Mario, Sonic, <a href="http://www.ranker.com/tags/final-fantasy?ref=internalCrossLinking_tag">Final Fantasy</a>, and The Legend of Zelda might appeal to you more. However today&#39;s gamers have insanely good franchises to sink their teeth into as well, including Grand Theft Auto, God of War, Halo, Deus Ex, and so much more. This list takes your opinion into account, rather than sales, popularity, and reviews, so vote for your favorite game franchises no matter how mainstream or highly-rated they are. All genres are included here, whether it&#39;s a RPG, platformer, first person shooter or an adventure game.

You can add any franchise that&#39;s missing to this list of the greatest game series of all time, as long as there have been 3 or more games in the franchise so far. That means we&#39;re not including <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/best-games-like-minecraft/meme-dude?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">games like Minecraft</a>, League of Legends, and DotA.&nbsp;

For this list we&#39;ve compiled some of the greatest video game music of all time, and we&#39;re leaving it up to you to decide which is best. In recent years games like Braid and Bastion have been praised for their beautiful songs, while older favorites seem to be Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, and Final Fantasy 7.&nbsp;

Video game music can be good for different reasons. Some songs are epic, some sweet, some scary, intense, catchy, sad, etc... Whatever the reason, vote for the best video game <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-greatest-soundtracks-of-all-time?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword" target="_blank">soundtracks of all time</a>.

If one of your favorite games with great music is missing, feel free to add it to the list so it has a chance for other people to vote on it too. You can add a game from any console, whether it&#39;s an older platform like SNES or it&#39;s a newer game for PC. Just make sure it has <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-video-game-soundtracks/alexander-oreilly" target="_blank">an amazing soundtrack</a> before throwing it with these other greats!
