That's an impossible question. First games that come to mind are Blaster Master, Kid Icarus, and Super Mario Bros. 3.

The wwf wrestling game and Kung fu got the most play growing up when we were kids. Didn't have a lot of games either. The price for games is comparable today to back in the day. Kinda makes you think.

IMO Tecmo World Wrestling was the goat NES wrestling game with Pro Wrestling as a close second. I never owned it, but I used to rent it all of the time. The WCW game was fun as well.
