If you can pick three games what 3 would you pick?

[GameboyReviewer]

Alright Guys and Gals here's a question for all of you, your stuck on a miin base with no one else but an atari 2600, now there's three blank carts.

You also have enough power in the computer gaming system and you could only pick three games, what would you pick?

 

1) Defender

2) Adventure

3) Night Stalker

 

Gotta give me props for creativity on the question, eh

[toymailman]

Yikes only 3!

 

Well this would be my three.

 

1) Lady Bug

2) Pressure Cooker

3) Jr. Pac-Man

 

I would still be really happy with the following as well.

-Seaquest

-Kaboom!

-Toyshop Trouble

-Ms. Pac-Man

[accousticguitar]

1. Adventure

2. Millipede

3. Not sure

[Shawn]

Smurf

BMX

Pong

[fiddlepaddle]

There'd be a thrift store nearby, right?

[iwan-iwanowitsch-goratschin]

1) Stargate aka Defender 2

2) Mr. Do

3) a porn game..

[mumbai]

1. Seaquest

2. Dragonfire

3. Chopper Command

[+Omegamatrix]

The old desert island with my Atai, eh?

 

Well then:

Jr. Pac-Man

H.E.R.O.

Circus Atari

 

3) a porn game..

 

 

Well at least the shrinkwrap will protect it. You'd never break the seal.

[Deteacher]

Jr. Pac Man

Toyshop Trouble

X-Man (Kudos to Iwan for that angle)

[pinball22]

Dark Cavern

Towering Inferno

Atlantis

 

Of my favorite games, I think those are the ones that would provide the most long-term replay value... if it were just my three favorite games ever, Pitfall II would definitely be on the list, but since I've gotten a perfect score before, I assume if I were stuck somewhere I'd get good enough after a while that I'd always get a perfect score, and that wouldn't be much fun.

[Osbo]

River Raid

Ms. PacMan

Frogger

[joeybastard]

HERO

Thrust

Pressure Cooker

[bcprs1]

1. Solaris

2. Jr Pac-Man

3. Pitfall II

[Lord Helmet]

hmmmm...

 

Toyshop Trouble

Lady Bug

Adventure

 

Tough to choose just 3

[STGuy1040]

1.) Pitfall

2.) Donkey Kong

3.) Missile Command

[Crazy Climber]

The 3 mythicon games

[Atarifever]

Pitfall

Solaris

Galaxian

 

The first because I would take a long time to master Pitfall! given my current ability (lack of actually) with it. Solaris because it would take so long to finish the first time, and then you could still shoot for a perfect run, quickest time, etc. Galaxian because I could never, ever actually beat that one, so if I got tired of the other two, I'd still have that.

 

Runner up secondary list for the same reasons:

Pitfall 2

Secret Quest

Pressure Cooker

River Raid

Demon Attack

1. Millipede

2. Solar Fox

3. Ms. Pac-Man

 

For homebrews:

 

1. Ladybug

2. Hunchy II
