What is The Best looking NES Game?

[TruxtonTatsujin TruxtonTatsujin]

The most common answer I see is Batman: Return of The Joker, but I want to hear what the people of RGT would consider to be some of the best looking games on the system, either on a technical or artistic level.

One NES game I thought looked really good in my opinion was Jackie Chan's Action Kung Fu

Sunsoft developed NES titles, in general, were technically impressive.

Sunsoft sunsoft sunsoft....

 

[MrYesterday]

Super Mario Bros 3

 

[ComicallyLargeSpider]

I’d say the original Ninja Gaiden. Sure the gameplay isn’t all that special looking but you don’t see cutscenes this detailed and good looking even on the Game Boy Advance. Pretty impressive for ‘87

Zombie Nation is another one I'd put up there for best looking. If we looking for stuff on a technical level a lot of the post 90' games could qualify.

The intro to Solar Jetman.

also I just realised I put this in the wrong section. Any mod that sees this feel free to move this thread to the Nintendo section.

Blaster Master

Shadow of the ninja at times looksloke something out of early Genesis

 

[nomohero7]

Micro Mages (homebrew),
Fire & Ice, Moon Cristal - great animation
Little Nemo, Mega Man 4, Gradius 2

I really like how Simon's Quest looks. Also Guardian Legend.

 

[CelestialInferno]

I've always thought Little Samson is phenomenal in every regard.

Also, a nod to deja vu. Given the limitations, I think it looks great as a point and click. Also Shadowgate.

Kirby's Adventure
Final Fantasy III
Dragon Quest IV (the final boss has really impressive animations for each phase you defeat)
So many Sunsoft games
Megaman (especially 3/4 to 6)
SMB 3

OK just stick with me here. Since someone already mentioned Blaster Master,
I'm going to say dragons lair. Sure it might be one of the worst games EVER, and
I'd rather have my fingernails pulled out and turpentine pored on them than
play this game, they DID make it very visually appealing.

No game with the game's title on the gameplay screen can work here. Too many points deducted for not coming up with a better use of space.

That's because without it you would have no idea what the F you are playing and they
probably paid a butt-load of money for that license.
I mean its quite a departure from this...

While I'm sure it'll get points counted off because it's "newer", but definitely "Former Dawn"
