You know there was a lot of truly awesome games for the Nintendo, including such classics that I have already mentioned in previous reviews including: Super Mario Bros., Contra, Mega Man, etc... But there is another game that I thought that I would mention here...
That game being, 'Metroid' (1986):

This game, (which I suspect may have been at least partly the inspiration for, 'Halo') was published for the Nintendo (as a matter of fact you could say that it is one of their longer running successful video game series...)
But this game, which has stayed on since the Famicom Disk System, and has since been remade a handful of times for most of the systems that Nintendo has released (all the way up to the Wii U,) was an awesome Science Fiction Action/Adventure video game that told the story of how a woman by the name of, 'Samus Aran' who is quickly trying to recapture stolen, 'Metroid' parasites that Space Pirates intend to use against her and all that oppose them!

This game was an interesting one, you see this game was was one of the first video games to feature a female protagonist, and which also got the player involved by giving them an incentive to play as quickly as possible due to the various endings that you could see depending on how quick you could beat the game!
Anyway, over all this game is fun, and definitely worth trying if you get the chance!
