You pick:
1)andrew r’s never-located Playstation memory card
2)The ballsack I never gave him for proving me wrong when I wagered him a ballsack over…something a couple months ago
3)The iron keys to Tabernacles’ heavily guarded drug fortress located on the mountain peak on Tristan da Cunha, stocked with Cheerwine and shrooms
- = I haven’t played this game in ages, though I’d probably still like it
? = I haven’t played this game in ages, and am not terribly sure how much I’d still enjoy it if I did, or even if I’d like it at all
! = This has to be included because I enjoyed it, but it kind of doesn’t count because it’s an irrelevant game due to something else being on the list (e.g., Street Fighter II Turbo) or it being easily available in other forms.
Notice how I categorize my OCD by listing the years the games came out and their systems, but not italicizing their titles.

There, I’m pretty sure that’s every game I still consider a “five star classic.” I think.
Now, for the tricky part…seeing if I can pad this list out to 100 games. Even my OCD wouldn’t permit me to take the time to rank these games, though the highest ranking SNES games have been moved to the top of that list. That, and I’m not sure that all of them hold up. I’ll separate them by system and try to alphabetize to make this go faster:
GAME BOY games:
46 Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins (1992)?
47 Kid Icarus: Of Myths And Monsters (1991)?
SEGA GENESIS games:
48 Gunstar Heroes (1993)
49 Ghouls ‘n Ghosts (1989)
50 Revenge Of Shinobi (1989)
51 Strider (1989)
52 Sonic The Hedgehog 2 (1992)
53 Sonic The Hedgehog 3 (1994)
NINTENDO 64 games:
54 Pilotwings 64 (1996)
55 WaveRace 64 (1997)

SUPER NINTENDO ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM games:

70 Gradius III (1991)
71 U. N. Squadron (1991 - didn’t learn until many years later that this was based off a manga, though the way the characters are designed it should have been really fucking obvious)
72 Wanderers From Ys (1992)
73 Donkey Kong Country (1994)
74 Earthworm Jim (1994)
75 Earthworm Jim 2 (1995)

81 Super Mario RPG: The Legend Of The Seven Stars (1996)
82 Super Scope 6 (1992)
83 Mario Paint (1992), ? or ! (can’t decide…I mean, I used to mess around with this all the time but it’s technically not a “game”…also I have neither the game nor the SNES mouse, so I’m likely never going to play it again)
84 Sparkster (1994)
85 Bubsy (1993)?
86 King Of Dragons (1994)
87 Sunset Riders (1993)
88 Street Fighter II: The World Warrior (1992)!

97 Ken Griffey Jr. Presents Major League Baseball (1994)?
98 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV: Turtles In Time (1992)*
99 T. M. N. T. Tournament Fighters (1994)?
Well, fuck it. I came up one short. Tabs keeps his fortress. Fuckin’ a, as Aerosmith would say. If anyone wants me to list the games that I’m certain don’t count or wouldn’t make the list anyway, let me know post-waste.
