Masahiro Sakurai has a YT channel where he talks about various aspects of game development. Here he muses over the year 1986, how many games released that year remain long lasting and iconic franchises to this day. With games like Zelda, Castlevania, Metroid, Bubble Bobble, Goemon, Outrun & Dragon Quest.

1984 is similarly a magical year for movies.

Those are some great series that got their start in that year. Castlevania and Zelda were amazing at the time on NES.

The Secret of Monkey Island
Speedball 2
Loom
King's Quest V
Operation Stealth

The movie fan in me got confused by thread title, since 1985 was the year of Legend.

Yep, as an old fart I recall 1984 being full of bangers...
