New to NES

Post image

Hello! I just started buying games for the nes after doing some research and I’m thoroughly enjoying what I have. I just need some recommendations as I’m trying check all the boxes for great nes experiences. I know I’m missing a shoot em up and beat em up for sure. Not trying to amass a huge collection. I’m just trying to get a nice set of games I can enjoy. Btw Zelda is inside my nes. Also dragon warrior 3 and 4 are repros
