Pokemon Black and White
Everything about the game, EVERYTHING is better than Blue and Red/Yellow.
Only nostalgia is making people not see that the game boy Pokemon games were glitchy piles of excrement, coming from somebody who played it as one of their first games and also thought they were the best things ever at the time. Things improve over time.

Zelda: Twilight Princess
...or any Zelda game that's not Ocarina of Time. Listen, just because you played Ocarina of Time first (and so did I by the way, and I love it just for the record) does not mean that all titles after that are inferior.
I loved Ocarina of Time, but Wind Waker, Twilight Princess, Minish Cap, Skyward Sword, and even the DS games are superior games in every aspect that makes a game a game.
**Note: Depending on fan base, Ocarina of Time is interchangable with A Link to the Past.

Fallout 3
I'm going to employ no tact at all here: Fallout 1 and 2 were absolute shit. Crappy-looking, heel-dragging, brain-rotting, counter-intuitive, obnoxious isometric shit.

Skyrim
Because it's not Morrowind, or because it's not Oblivion. I will agree that Morrowind had the best fantasy atmosphere, and Oblivion... had a mastery of the Uncanny Valley...? But Skyrim's combat far exceeds both of them combined, which is the difference between 107 hours in Skyrim and 5 hours in Morrowind playing the actual game, and probably 30 hours fucking around in Oblivion with about 1 hour of trying desperately to take the game seriously (not possible).
**Extra Oblivion challenge: Take a shot every time there are two voice actors for the same character. Call an ambulance in advance.
