Top 10 Lists

[Trey_Vore]

Not sure about some of those sequels, Belchic.

I mean what would Finding Nemo 2 be about, would they call in they end up... Finding Nemo Again?

I don't know about 101 Dalmatians 3 or Bolt 2. What could they do there?

[Belchic]

Knowing Disney, they could come up with something. They managed to come up with plots for the sequels to Cindrella and Jungle Book, and even Fox and the Hound, even though it doesn't take place where the original left off. I discussed some ideas for a third 101 Dalmatians movie in another thread.

Who the hell is that???

[Belchic]

I may have posted this already, and if I did, I apologize. I know for a fact that I shared this on Retrojunk, though. I'm going back to my early childhood days of video games. To me, the Holy Trinity of Classic Silver Age Consoles were the NES, the Super NES, and the Sega Genesis. So let's begin:

My Top 10 Super NES games:
#10 - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 4: Turtles in Time
#9 - Mortal Kombat 3
#8 - Super Mariokart
#7 - Mega Man 7
#6 - Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest
#5 - Super Mario World
#4 - Mega Man X
#3 - Donkey Kong Country
#2 - Kirby's Super Star
#1 - Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

(I know a lot of you would disagree with my opinions up there, but you know, if I included "Super Metroid", "Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past", "Star Fox", "Chrono Trigger" and "Final Fantasy 3", then my list would be just like everyone else's.)

Anyway, moving on to my Top 15 Sega Genesis games:

#15 - Kid Chameleon
#14 - The Lion King
#13 - Cool Spot
#12 - Aero the Acrobat
#11 - Earthrowm Jim
#10 - Sonic the Hedgehog
#9 - Vectorman
#8 - Earthworm Jim 2
#7 - Road Rash
#6 - Tiny Toon Adventures: Buster's Hidden Treasure
#5 - Quack Shot
#4 - Sonic the Hedgehog 2
#3 - World of Illusion
#2 - Rocket Knight Adventures
#1 - Sonic 3 & Knuckles

(That looks like a better list, and I'm sure most of you will agree with my #1 choice. I know that I put a lot of obscure titles on there, but those are the games I had the most fond memories on, and that's why I put them on there.)

And finally, here are my Top 20 NES games!:

#20 - Yoshi's Cookie
#19 - Balloon Fight
#18 - Kid Icarus
#17 - R.B.I. Baseball
#16 - Yoshi
#15 - Darkwing Duck
#14 - Felix the Cat
#13 - Rad Racer
#12 - MC Kids
#11 - Adventures in the Magic Kingdom
#10 - Chip n' Dale Rescue Rangers
#9 - Dr. Mario
#8 - Kickle Cubicle
#7 - Tetris
#6 - Duck Tales
#5 - Duck Hunt
#4 - Kirby's Adventure
#3 - Legend of Zelda
#2 - Mega Man 3
#1 - The Super Mario Bros. Trilogy

(I know it doesn't seem fair to put three games in the #1 spot, but I feel that it's a sin to seperate the SMB Trilogy.)

So, those are my lists. Looking forward to other people's comments. Maybe I'll do a Top 10 N64 list later.

Lots of people who watch ScrewAttack have been wondering why Handsome Tom left. I guess Stuttering Craig found a replacement: Nervous Nick. Anyway, here is ScrewAttack's Top 10 Worst Underwater Levels:

8. Every single level in Ecco the Dolphin
7. The underwater level in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (NES)
6. The Water Temple from Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
5. The Great Sea from Legend of Zelda: The Windwaker
4. Mt. Kazai from Skies of Arcadia
3. The Compination from Conker's Bad Fur Day
2. Atlantica from Kingdom Hearts II
1. The "Minus World" from Super Mario Bros.

Here are some honorable nods that I think should have made the list:

The Labyrinth Zone from Sonic the Hedgehog
The underwater segment of Transylvania from Quack Shot
Poison Pond from Donkey Kong Country
