Here's my list NES Bionic Commando River City Ransom Super Mario 1,2,3 Blaster Master Fester's Quest Bad Dudes Castlevania 1,3 GI Joe 2 Legend of Zelda Nightmare on Elm Street Final Fantasy Willow Jaws Gunsmoke Punch Out Wizards and Warriors Shadowgate Deja Vu Contra Lifeforce Rygar Double Dragon 2 Mega Man 2 Astynax Metroid Abadox SNES Super Mario World Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past Final Fantasy The Mystic Quest Final Fantasy II Final Fantasy III Street Fighter II (All iterations) Street Fighter Alpha 2 Super Punch-Out Killer Instinct Mortal Kombat 1,2,3 F-Zero Super Castlevania ActRaiser Wonders from Ys III Out of this World Flashback Shadowrun Megaman X 1,2,3 Breath of Fire 1,2 Contra III Donkey Kong Country Castlevania Dracula X Secret of Mana Secret of Evermore Chrono Trigger Illusion of Gaia Earthworm Jim 2 Super Metroid Super Mario RPG U.N. Squadron A ton of PS 1,2,3,4 games. Several Dreamcast games. A few Sega Genesis games. No Gamecube games. A ton of PC games. To say I'm a gamer nerd is a massive understatement. I know that is an incredibly long list of games, however, on my honor I or my older brother owned every single one of those titles when those systems were on the market. I didn't have access to the internet or gamer guides until almost 1998. As far as I knew, we were just gamers and most of those games were easily beaten by everyone....until I read some lists on retro-gamers websites. I love playing on my emulators now. It gives me an opportunity to play all my old favorites plus a ton of games I never knew existed or I was unable to get as a kid. Thanks to all you guys who have made this possible for old (relatively I'm 34) nerds such as myself. "Keep your filthy sanity off of me!!!"

Hey, not so fast there. It says beaten, meaning instruction manual only: no tips, no walkthroughs, and definitely no cheats. Bonus points for not using the instructions. Make a titles-only list if that's your bent, add some detail if you like. You don't get much out in the real world for bringing down a video game; why not take a bow here where it does count, on the only board that really matters.

Here's the example:
