20 Best NES Games Of All Time
17. Tetris
Most consoles have a version of Tetris, and most of the time that game will be among the systems best. The NES is no exception.
The NES version of Tetris doesn't go crazy like later entries do. You can pick a difficulty, a song to play, and... well that's it.
There's no bonus modes, no wacky unlockables, and no multiplayer. Just you and the most vanilla version of Tetris ever made other than the original Electronika 60 version. The thing is, that's how many people like their Tetris. This definitely isn't the best version of the game but it's a version that many go back to due to the game's purity.
Just like with Dr. Mario, Tetris being a very simple puzzle game means that this is one of the better aged NES games. Yeah, improvements have been added to the Tetris formula so it might be slightly hard playing this version initially, but you'll soon get the hang of things and start having a great time.
