Notes: This game consists of different types of pinball games for you to play, even some that are competitive. Definitely one of the best pinball games for the NES, right up there with “Pinball.”
Notes: In my opinion this game is definitely the best by way of artwork coming from this company. Notice that I am not mentioning the content of the game itself.

Notes: Action game where you have been called upon to save the world from alien invaders. Classic concept, bad production. You select where you want to go to take out the aliens in different scenarios, but the limited fuel issue really puts this game high on the annoying scale. Also, the fact that the aliens are not always where you select to go gets very frustrating.
Notes: Action game based on the movie. Follows the plot almost exactly the entire way through. Nice graphics, but the gameplay is somewhat lacking due to poor controls when you try to combine flying with attacking. Could have been much better.
Notes: Definitely this company’s masterpiece for the NES. Gameplay is meant to imitate classic cartoons from the golden age. Excellent music and graphics. You go through several different worlds with tons of oddities. Lots of features including bonus games, huge bosses, and interesting weapons for you to use and purchase.
Notes: One of the two rarest PAL releases, the other being “Mr. Gimmick.” This game is simply excellent and is a good reproduction of the arcade version. You control one of two elves and go through simple levels collecting flowers and defeating enemies. You grab a hold of them and toss them about to get power-ups. Really deserves the attention it gets. Good luck finding it, it’s much harder to find than almost anything.
