  • 1807, on 09/15/2008, -6/+83You know, I don't think anyone has ever doubted Nintendo as a Game maker. I, for instance, bought a Wii JUST so I could play Super Mario Galexy and then sold it soon after. You know, my favorite Nintendo system,hands down, was the SNES. I know it sounds goofy but they did EVERYTHING right on that system. The color, the music, the games, everything is still great. The soundtracks were SO memorable, even in their midi format. Even though I chose Genesis in that era, I was always jelous of my friends who all had Super Nintendo.
  • staffell, on 09/15/2008, -1/+53I wanted to digg you up, but

    GALEXY?!
  • waxenpi, on 09/15/2008, -2/+47no donkey kong mine shaft :(
  • ryancalderoni, on 09/15/2008, -0/+37Gerudo Valley
  • hammerpants, on 09/15/2008, -0/+29Oh, no you did NOT just go into Bowser's castle without a mushroom.
  • Me0wmix, on 09/15/2008, -1/+28@#5 Do a barrel roll!
  • TheRealDeuce, on 09/15/2008, -2/+22YOU ARE A SUPER PLAYER ! ! !
  • Sererena, on 09/15/2008, -0/+19Dugg for Giant Land! :D
  • inactive, on 09/15/2008, -2/+21You just aren't cool until you've beaten SMW 100%.

    YOU ARE A SUPER PLAYER ! !
  • hfactor, on 09/15/2008, -3/+20Super Mario World - hands down the best game of all time.
  • KrazyMon2, on 09/15/2008, -0/+14Seeing that Super Mario World video makes me want to bust it out and beat it to 98% again. Could never get the 100% for some reason.
  • doshindude, on 09/16/2008, -1/+14Mario 3 would like a word with you.
  • inactive, on 09/15/2008, -1/+14Purple Yoshi, was the best Yoshi.
  • deepcoiler, on 09/15/2008, -3/+16Good thing Rainbow Road is on there, when I saw the article that was the level that came to mind. Almost anything from Super Mario 64 could be on there for me.
  • NathanielJ, on 09/15/2008, -0/+13With an article title like "Top Ten All-Time Best Nintendo Levels" it's obvious that they are only going to cover Nintendo levels, but it would be interesting to see a list of the best kinds of celery.
  • inactive, on 09/15/2008, -0/+13Phendrana Drifts for metroid prime? please?
  • Galaxylander, on 09/15/2008, -0/+12While I agree, that's from Rare.
  • soze1, on 09/15/2008, -0/+12I feel a sudden urge to boot up the VC on Wii.
  • Macuyiko, on 09/15/2008, -0/+11Jelous?
  • jermo, on 09/15/2008, -0/+11Uhh...the title of the post specifies Nintendo levels right in it.

    WTF did you expect?
  • Zihuatanejo, on 09/15/2008, -0/+8It's galacksee, you idiot, the s is silent.
  • repmekevets, on 09/15/2008, -0/+896 with a little star next to it was the highest you could get.
  • NeoCortex, on 09/16/2008, -0/+8As far as classic levels, I'm surprised he didn't just go with 1-1. Most people on Digg could probably run that level with their eyes closed at this point and still get all of the powerups.
  • inactive, on 09/15/2008, -0/+8I don't really agree with 1 thing on there. Of all the Mario Kart levels, they choose the bland one that just looks like a rainbow the entire way?
  • Zarokima, on 09/15/2008, -0/+8OoT. Best. Game. Ever.
  • elizabethb221, on 09/15/2008, -1/+9You know what's sad? I've had an NES for almost my entire life and I have never beaten Super Mario Brothers.

    It's the saddest thing ever.

    It's now my goal for the end of the year, goddamnit.
  • radiatednoodle, on 09/16/2008, -0/+796 is the number of exits not the percent complete
  • Galaxylander, on 09/15/2008, -0/+7I love Sweet Sweet Galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy, one of my all time favourite levels of any of the games.
  • HarryRag, on 09/15/2008, -1/+8This article reminded me how much I loved (and still love) Ocarina of Time and how much I love Nintendo.
  • skyshock1, on 09/15/2008, -0/+7That music was just awesome too!

    (apologies for the ringtone link, it's the only place I could find that Gerudo valley theme song in an easily playable format)
  • MrM4nager, on 09/15/2008, -0/+7Flower
  • Badewell, on 09/15/2008, -0/+7Dugg for Katina
  • MrM4nager, on 09/15/2008, -0/+7Special world made me want to snap my controller in half
  • diggproof, on 09/15/2008, -0/+6Where's Kuribo's Shoe (5-3) from SMB3?
  • PaperJesus, on 09/15/2008, -2/+8Dugg for Rainbow Road.
  • DrMatt, on 09/15/2008, -0/+6Best level from a Non-Nintendo developer on an Nintendo system: Banjo-Kazooie quiz just before the final boss level where you had to remember things from the entire game! Brilliant!
  • JaysonthePirate, on 09/15/2008, -0/+6The mine levels drove me crazy! Bees, elevator fuel, mine carts, flashlights. Just classic.
  • zewm, on 09/15/2008, -0/+5LOL, I had this exact same thought. As soon as I read 'Galexy' I had to unhide the replies to see if anyone mentioned it.
  • cyberflas, on 09/15/2008, -2/+7i beat off to some of these levels
  • spiritamx79, on 09/16/2008, -0/+5I LOVE Super Mario World. Have my SNES, and Virtual Console versions of the game. I can sit for hours playing it... always have! One saved game has all worlds beat with the star next to the number, one saved game I beat without any of the switchs hit, and another one to keep playing.

    /end worthless information
  • LogicBomB, on 09/16/2008, -0/+4I'm glad someone shares this opinion with me. The SNES was by far the fondest video game memories I have and the ONLY system in memory where I own a wealth of games and still feel there are some great ones that I need to get.
  • elizabethb221, on 09/16/2008, -0/+4I always die in 8-3!!! I don't know what my problem is!
  • cobainirvana, on 09/15/2008, -0/+4chrono cross is up there too man but that was not for nintendo
  • Jhiaxuz, on 09/15/2008, -0/+4Holy nostalgia!
  • completerobot, on 09/15/2008, -1/+5What the ***** are you talking about.
  • efitz11, on 09/16/2008, -0/+3the hatches are open!
  • AndySavage, on 09/16/2008, -0/+3I'm moving back to college in a few days, and I need to save on space this time around, so I decided I'd narrow my game consoles down to 1 instead of the usual 3 or 4.

    Which one would I take? The SNES, hands down.
  • LogicBomB, on 09/16/2008, -0/+3What is this, a rerun of Console War 1992?
  • MrM4nager, on 09/15/2008, -1/+410/10 I"M SO AWESOMEZ!
  • repmekevets, on 09/15/2008, -0/+3i've got nothing against metroid, but there are so many more metroid fanboys in the world than i thought.
