Yeah, I remember Chernobyl. Never got the point of that game though. I'd always make the reactors overheat and blow on purpose, but nothing cool ever happened, no three headed russian children.
I used to have another one, I think it was like a battleship kinda game. You'd sink other ships, hit submarines, sometimes have planes to shoot down AA fire. Sound familiar?
Zelda will always be debated with hard core fans on both sides of the fence.
Secret of Mana
I remember having the NES Atlas from Nintendo back then. It had every map of every level of ~15-20 games. It was AMAZING! They don't do guides like that any more, now it's a picture or two and lots of words. This book was ~1/2" thick.

Was one of those huge megastores with books, movies, music, video games, and everything in between. They used to have all the software boxes set out on the shelves and then sometimes the strategy guide books right beside them, I guess so you could buy the game AND the guide book. I never got the point of that. Why pay that much for a new game and then basically cheat your way through it faster with a walkthrough. That kinda ruins the fun of it. But I guess that's just the "American way", we want everything RIGHT NOW and don't really wanna work all that hard for it... even when the "work" is actually "play".
