If you could only have 10 games from generation EVERYTHING PRIOR TO THE NES what would your games be???

This includes all consoles made before 1985. Check the Wiki link if you don't know what those consoles are...

This is about taking the minimalist approach. The most bang for your buck. Games that would keep you content forever if they were your only options in gaming life. List the games you would own as well as the console the game in on (there are different versions often times with arcade titles...i.e. Pac-Man is on a lot of consoles).

I will start things off with this list.

I have no pre-1985 consoles or games so my list is empty for now...

02. Video Pinball (VCS)
01. E.T. (VCS)
 
1: Rescue On Fractalus - 800
2: Rainbow Walker - 800
3: Yars Revenge - 2600
4: Atlantis - 2600
5: Adventure - 2600
6: Alternate Reality - 800
7: Keystone Kapers - 2600
8: Robot Tank - 2600
9: Montezumas Revenge - 800
10: Pitfall - 2600

I played alot of Atari.. still do!
 
Those games are on the "Shit! I need those for all time!"

I don't want to lose whatever games I really like to play, no matter what system they are on.

5 1/4 floppies till I am 90? Sounds good to me!
 
All 2600

Demon Attack
Cosmic Ark
Entombed
Centipede
Pitfall!
Chopper Command
Sea Quest
Defender
Combat
Asteroids
 
This would all be Atari 2600 for me, and I think my list would probably match a lot of other member's lists... unless I toss in C64 as well:

10.) Ducks Ahoy (C64 disk)
9.) Combat (2600)
8.) Spy Hunter (C64 disk)
7.) Berzerk (2600)
6.) Realm of Impossibility (2600)
5.) Pitfall (2600)
4.) Q*bert (C64 cart)
3.) Zaxxon (C64 cart)
2.) Bruce Lee (C64 disk)
1.) Impossible Mission (C64 disk)

Yeah that's what I figured. I'd pick other games, but I imagine these games, I'd have to have the console but would I be allowed to have Sega Genesis controllers?
