Dragon Warrior (or Dragon Quest in the rest of the world) is the first game in the Dragon Quest series and is the first RPG of its kind. This game was so influential and went on to directly inspire the Final Fantasy games among countless others. The gameplay seems simple nowadays but was revolutionary back in 1986, making this one of the greatest NES games. Playing as a lone hero is different than most RPGs and makes this game worth playing to this day. The GBC port improved on a lot of the graphics and gameplay and is definitely the better version. Overall this game still stands out as an RPG and is one of the most important games in history.
