Yes, what you've just read is what its written; the eyes don't play tricks on you yet. After some digging, GameFaqs website come up with an interesting and surprising list of the top 10 games of 1988. Why they picked this year and not another one, you may ask. Well, to be honest, the real meaning of their short introduction is somewhat elusive: "1988 was the sequel to the much loved 1987" is implying that indeed 1987 was the most productive year when it comes to quality titles. There's not much to be synthesized, so without further ado, here's the list:
1. Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES);
2. Ninja Gaiden (NES);
3. Castlevania II: Simon's Quest (NES);
4. Forgotten Worlds (Arcade);
5. Double Dragon II: The Revenge (Arcade);
6. Bionic Commando (NES);
7. Mega Man II (NES);
8. Guardian Legend (NES);
9. Zelda II: The Adventure of Link (NES);
10. Contra (NES).
