feel like after the 2600 et al the 3rd gen systems weren't that big over here. the Master System got a little UK traction and the NES got more or less none, most mid-80s gaming was home computer based. only when the Megadrive and SNES launched did consoles get back serious market share.
so most of these games i know thru emulation or versions on home computers that aren't eligible. i did have a Master system briefly in the 90s. dunno that there's much here i can honestly vote for, don't feel inclined to check out a lot either - until the 4th gen i was strictly a Spectrum kid.

It came out at the same time as the Mega Drive, but it was still 8bit and pretty much a portable master system.

Will can make a final ruling, but based on memory and looking through a list of what was released for Game Gear, the bulk of it came out in the mid-'90s and a lot of them were unique titles and repurposed Genesis games, so I'd still have a hard time considering it 3rd gen.

it's possible. I was obsessed with video games up through and including the Super Nintendo, but lost all interest once that machine's title got usurped by the PSOne, which was quite a step on in terms of environment and gameplay. I still get confused by FP shooters and the like because those didn't really exist on third/fourth-gen consoles in any major way.

Nah, Game Gear is a no-go for this one. It is pretty firmly entrenched in that early-90s 4th gen plus I'm thinking there may be need for a portables poll that's separate (mostly thanks to the Game Boy existing for like 20 years?), and that could pretty handily cover every portable console up until smartphones.

i def remember the nes being prominent a lot earlier than the master system, but maybe that was a uk thing. with a lot of these consoles, the earlier games would be a lot simpler to start with - the first games my friend had were things like Action Fighter which was a fairly straightforward shooter. But Mickey Mouse Castle Of Illusion really felt like a step-up in terms of quality, and soon afterwards the Sonic games came out for the Master System. I got a Game Gear in around 91/92? Played it to death, and it seemed to have a slightly defter engine than the MS.

yeah there was def sonic and sonic 2 and all those on the MS. Its legacy ran on well into the Megadrive days, so often two analogues of a game would come out at the same time on each machine. I seem to recall there even being a Mortal Kombat on MS but maybe it was a hoax.

There is not much from a DOS perspective. You basically have LucasArts/Sierra graphic adventures and that's it. Wolfenstein 3D was the first computer exclusive w any power to it and that came out in 1992. That's from a US DOS perspective, I hear the Spectrum and MSX and various other machines had a much greater profile elsewhere.

I'd probably have dozens of C64 nominations.
I see that it was released for the Master System and Game Gear but I don't remember Castle of Illusion on anything but Genesis. And PS3 (even though it's a just weird nebulous pseudo release that doesn't seem like it'll ever be available again if I let my PS+ subscription lapse).
― Those Jorts Are Upsetting (Old Lunch), Monday, 10 August 2015 15:37 (nine years ago) link

I loved loved loved first Wizards & Warriors, out of proportion to its actual quality. Rented it many times just to march through the same few levels, relish the treasure chests again, sigh at the tedium of ascending the castle exterior, thank god for the Feather of Feather Fall.
I can't remember if I didn't enjoy the sequels as much or if they were just really rare. They looked great in Nintendo Power, that's for sure. I think the third was supposed to be a little more quasi-RPGish, in a Faxanadu/Zelda II kind of way?
― Gorefest Frump (Doctor Casino), Friday, 28 August 2015 20:26 (nine years ago) link
Castlevania mostly feels "fair" and it's so evidently a leap forward in graphics and enemy/level design and stuff
YES in a lot of ways it is like the Souls games are now now. If you master enemy patterns and know how to properly react you should be able to one-life it. It's INSANE that they have NG+ in the original Castlevania, which makes the game harder by manipulating damage. That game is already insane. As for level design, look no further than that room before the Grim Reaper, where you are dodging Medusa heads and axe-throwing knights that take multiple hits to kill.
Highly recommend the Anatomy of Castlevania: http://www.anatomyofgames.com/gamespite-quarterly/gjs13-anatomy-of-castlevania/ it goes into depth at why it's so good, how it may be the first game that really tried to do a linear and cohesive design. IE random platforms sitting in mid-air are connected to brickwork in the background and stuff. It is a masterpiece of impossible architecture. Here the sprite art really shines: what could be rather boring brick walls and archways have weathering and worn paint and moss drawn onto the tiles, one pixel at a time. This details suggests a world beyond what you just see on the CRT. Castlevania tugs at your imagination.

Jeremy Parish is a great game writer. He covers a lot of the games in this poll on the site.
― AdamVania (Adam Bruneau), Friday, 28 August 2015 20:38 (nine years ago) link
I used to read that guy religiously, going back to like, 1999/2000 or so. Evangelion Thumbnail Theater, all that stuff. He must be the king of unfinished or now un-archived projects, so many loose threads. Clearly struggling between the 'blog' and the 'kitchen sink website' as formats. As it is so much of the recent stuff is virtually un-browsable; maybe that's an incentive to buy the books. I do like that he's picked up the print volume as a format, and zeroed in on a few recurring obsessions (the "Metroidvania" genre in particular).
The only thing is, and this is hardly unique to that site, but there's also a real tension between what's brilliant about the insight and what's popular with most of the readers. I feel like a lot of projects like this burn themselves out screencapping everything and basically let's-playing every single step of the game, like a walkthrough but every sentence has to be written snappily and with nerd panache. Sometimes that's fun to read but sometimes it's just flab keeping us from a really taut single medium or long-form essay about, in this case, the anatomy of the particular game. Part of me loves the idea of a 14-article series on Zelda II, or 27 parts on Super Mario Bros., but I suspect some of the strengths of the insights actually get buried in all that coverage... which nonetheless I'm sure is very popular. This is by no means unique to Parish, and he has a way better ratio than some other blogs I could name, but you kinda wish his experience in print journalism would have helped him internalize some checks on excess. OTOH he's writing about what he loves so, y'know, more power to him!
Sticking closer to content, one thing I wonder about is the tendency for most of the games to assume that they're really well-thought-out masterpieces and that every little move is just incredibly amazing, or just brilliantly effective, or just perfectly calibrated. That's another common tendency in this kind of writing and it's exhausting, but I think it also starts to seep into the argument; he has a general predisposition towards games that 'teach' their mechanics through gameplay, and a good eye for ways games do this in subtle ways that also flesh out the story or atmosphere of the world. But I feel like, and I should have examples for this, but sometimes it starts to feel like every single thing you do in a game is a planned little teachable moment; every jump you have to make early on is there to train you for a more complicated jump in World 7. And yeah, sure, in general I buy that but this was also just an era of games being hard as fuck and throwing you in the deep end, and sometimes stuff wasn't really telegraphed all that well but the games were still fun for it. I dunno, I'm not explaining this well and it's not a reason not to read his stuff. Maybe it would be better to say that his essays for their emphasis on this theme have forced me to think for myself about what makes a good difficulty curve or how much of this stuff is necessary for a good game.

BTW: What is the best world of Super Mario 3?
Without knowing Castlevania II's secrets (ie without internet help), you won't be able to win. It's not the game's difficulty but the fact that you need a Nintendo Power or the prodigy kid down the street in order to progress in the game. I mean you would have to be pretty damn lucky to find/solve the secrets on your own.

the tendency for most of the games to assume that they're really well-thought-out masterpieces and that every little move is just incredibly amazing, or just brilliantly effective, or just perfectly calibrated
Well given memory limitations everything was more or less meticulously thought-out, from level design to song length to character art. The designers themselves have admitted as much, the famous example being Mario's design was due to the limitations of pixel art, his moustache and hat being added to fix animation problems that cropped up with the tiny resolution they had to work with.
Nowadays there really aren't any limitations so less consideration probably goes into it. If you can only include X amount of art/music/gameplay, it is going to be the absolute best you can come up with.
But yes there is probably some projection/fandom in there largely coloring things.
― AdamVania (Adam Bruneau), Friday, 28 August 2015 22:15 (nine years ago) link
Also I may be confusing this (with DOOM?) but I seem to remember them saying the first stage of Mario was built at the end of development, after they had figured out the tools, and thus were able to use more deliberate planning irt what the player would encounter and how they would likely respond.
― AdamVania (Adam Bruneau), Friday, 28 August 2015 22:17 (nine years ago) link
Sure, I just think it gets taken to this level of "and here's yet another example of the unfailing inexhaustible genius of the designers" and it just becomes unreadable after a few paragraphs. Definitely talking more about the game design/challenge/information stuff here than the pixel art stuff. Obviously, there's more care at all levels in the classics than the far, far more numerous dudfests... s'what makes them the classics!
Zelda II is profoundly flawed but in the end, basically playable and satisfying in its way. If the first one had never existed it'd probably be pretty well remembered as an ambitious if incompletely-worked-out action RPG. I can think of only two totally baffling points that really scream "Nintendo Power, take me away!" which is basically zero compared to Castlevania II. Will be stunned if anyone ends up voting for that one...

zelda 2 the first game i ever beat. dark link an all-time end boss. (his cameo in ocarina is kind of misplaced and random.) a genuinely difficult game, probably less forgiving than the first (definitely meaner: ganon's digitized chuckle on game over) and the last zelda game to be hard at all. its dangerous places (the forests, the pitch-black caves, the big mess of rocky maze in the southwest, the town where people are bats) are stressful and frightening in ways no death mountain has ever been, and a combination of nes-memory restrictions on text and a number of NPCs hugely increased from the first game meant even the non-hostile townspeople (health-restoring hookers aside) seemed standoffish and terse. the rare game i remember (vividly) as a hostile place, remote from help, instead of as a beloved playground. it's also weirdly colorless, simultaneously too simple and too fiddly to be a working platformer, and (alone in the series) reliant on dedicated, mindless grinding without any of the monster or spell variety that's supposed to entertain you when you're doing that in FF games. so it probably deserves its reputation in comparison to the likes of zelda 1 and link to the past, but in the post-twilight-princess era of nintendo's long enslavement to ocarina of time it definitely shouldn't be called the series' worst anymore.

I AM ERROR. it's a bleak and ugly sort of hyrule you're saving here, not unlike the transylvania of castlevania ii but a lot more playable. i also think it should get credit for the dungeons, which are sometimes really irritating, and are nothing on the high-concept ones from link to the past, but again, legitimately hard, and considerably more varied than CV2's mansions which really all feel like the same place (and don't even have bosses!). and of course, the 'big rocky maze' - which IS death mountain! - thrown at you way too early in the game, super punishing. these mean motherfuckers, man:
