It feels somewhat hypocritical to post with jubilation a top 100 list I enjoyed right after I denounced personal lists in a previous blog post.

HOWEVER. This list rocks.

I desire to briefly explain myself. First of all, it's a list of NES games. That makes it so irrelevant that I can enjoy it without having a personal investment beyond the occasional "yeah... that was a good game."

Secondly, it acknowledges its biases right from the start. It's not trying to be the definitive list of 100 best NES games. It's just a list that these guys made out of the love of their nostalgia. There's a whole section on what their biases are. The personal nature of the list makes it engaging. This isn't IGN talking like God. It's a couple of gamers talking like kids about games they loved. This is the kind of conversation I've always wanted to have with someone on their porch while nursing a beer.

Finally, it's pretty funny, if only to see the differing personalities of the judges.

Anyways, I recommend it. It makes a nice nostalgic entertaining read.
