The Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) — renamed from the Family Computer, or Famicom – was first released in North America on October 18, 1985.[1] The NES was released in Europe and Australia in 1986 and 1987 and distributed by various third-party companies until Nintendo took over distribution in 1990 and 1994 respectively.[2] The final licensed NES game released was the PAL-exclusive The Lion King in 1995. The final unlicensed NES game released during its lifespan was F-22 in November 1997. The NES was succeeded by the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, released in 1991 in America and 1992 in Europe and Australia.
In 2017, The Mexican Runner became the first person to document beating all 714 licensed games, in the project called NESmania.

- ^ a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z Originally released for the Famicom Disk System.
- ^ a b c d This game received an official re-release with permission of the current rights holder of the game title, at the time of re-release, in limited quantities on either a refurbished licensed cartridge or an unlicensed reproduction cartridge long after the Nintendo Entertainment System's lifespan. Usually this is done as the result of a promotional stunt or to capitalize on the retro game collecting market.
- ^ Later re-released as World Class Track Meet.
- ^ a b c d This game was released on both licensed and unlicensed cartridge. This was a result of the Publisher initially using licensed cartridges at the game's release, but then moving the game's production to unlicensed cartridges to avoid paying Nintendo's license fees after discovering a means to bypass Nintendo's lockout chip.
- ^ The 72-pin NES cartridge version of this game was only available in Hong Kong. The NES was officially released in Hong Kong around 1987, and it is fairly rare. This game is the rarest licensed and commercially available NES game produced with fewer than 10 copies known.
