Zelda has always been my favorite series so it's no surprise to see it on the list this much. Wind Waker was my first GC game and I'll always have a soft spot for it. Left 4 Dead, Minecraft, and Halo are the 3 games I poured hundreds of hours into during college. Super Mario Galaxy needs no explanation. BioShock was the first game I played that had a deep story and the atmosphere had me captivated. Ocarina of Time captivated me the way Link's Awakening did. Sadly, I never had a Nintendo 64. I only got little tastes of the game when I played it at my friend's house. I finally got to beat it when I got the Collector's Edition on GC. I played a ton of Age of Kings when I was in HS, and then I played quite a bit more when the HD update came out. Who doesn't like amassing resources and then rolling over the map like a plague with 200 paladins? Resident Evil 4 is the first horror game I played, and it was a fantastic introduction the genre. Rounding out the top 10 is Red Dead Redemption. Whenever I play open world games these days, I can't help but wish they had the smooth shooting mechanics of RDR.

Why do you torment me to pick 30 out of hundreds? *sigh* I'll work on something.
 
It's never easy. I was gonna do top 25 but I couldn't shave off those last five because 16-30 are all interchangeable.
 
Same as Skeith, I'll have to work on it gradually. I name the top 5 from head, but certainly not 30. I don't even think I have a definite order past 5.

Woah, that's a lot of Nintendo love! Have you played on any other systems?
I like your idea of including the systems, I've added that to my original post.

My hubby has a X-Box 360. I've played that a little bit but I don't spend a lot of time on that console. The Nintendo consoles are all mine and that's usually what I stick to.
