I think NG3 (NES ver.) is the best NES game.

I am assuming that you mean "best NES action game" -- though it could also be that, on the whole, you enjoy action games more than strategy ones, in which case the original proposition would be valid as it is -- for you at least.

As I understand it he means the best Ninja Gaiden NES game, not the best NES game outside of that series. So maybe the arcade or Xbox games are better, I wouldn't know.

The dude is asking him what he thinks of NGIII in a thread about Batman, and Josh answers that he thinks it is the best NES game. Not much room there for misunderstanding...

As for this:

So maybe the arcade or Xbox games are better, I wouldn't know.

Dude, I thought we had already gone over this. There is no point saying that a fishing simulator is better than a puzzle game, if we haven't already established that one genre is superior to another. The arcade game is a beat 'em up, the Xbox game is a 3D action game -- how on earth would you even begin to compare them with the NES games?

I would say it's the best NES game regardless of genre because all other genres have been done way better on later systems, while a handful of NES action games are still fairly top of the line in the side-scrolling action genre.

But is it art.
