SNES Games

I think the Super Nintendo has some of the best RPG games to date.
For instance, Chrono Trigger is beautiful, and masterfully put together.

I guess.. What are your favorite SNES games?

In my experience, the RPGs are the only ones worth playing.

Earthbound, ofc.

And supermario rpg legend of the 7 stars, among some others.

Donkey Kong Country and Super Mario RPG
My 2 Favorites

Dragon Quest VI for SNES is pretty awesome.

Earthbound is my personal favorite.

playstation 2 has by far the best rpgs imo, but the snes is firmly in second. no other console is even in the same galaxy.

my favorite snes rpgs would be..

mario rpg legend of the 7 stars.
lufia 2
chrono trigger(who doesnt love chrono trigger)
final fantasy 6

in that order.

EarthBound, Chrono Trigger, and Mario RPG are all really good, and I agree that SNES has the best RPGs. Final Fantasy 6 deserves a mention but it isn’t up with some of the others, in my opinion. Other than the RPGs, I liked the three Donkey Kong Country games a lot.
EDIT: Holy crap, how did I miss Super Metroid!?

I’m just going to list a bunch because I’m bad at picking favorites.
Bahamut Lagoon
Earthbound
FF
Dragon Quest
Seiken Densetsu
Shadowrun
Super Mario RPG
Lufia 2
Chrono Trigger
Super Metroid
Front Mission
Soulblazer Series
Live a Live
Romancing Saga 3
Tales of Phantasia

Super Metroid was a FANTASTIC Rpg on SNES along with Mario.

Super Metroid, Super Punch Out, and DK Country 2 and 3 are all my favorites.

Harvest Moon!

(Also Final Fantasy 6, Super Metroid, Super Mario World, and Rock n’ Roll Racing.)

Chrono trigger no contest. No other SNES game actually did it for me, but Chrono… oh wow, I love it. Even today I just like firing up the emulator and playing it a bit. It is one of the best RPG’s ever made imo.

You are forgetting the soul blazer sequel! Terranigma was the best, but there was also illussion of gaia and soulblazer, and robotrek… All RPG. Hmm, and form a different producer: star ocean, but it was very similar to tales of phantasia.

I would like to add Front mission almost an RPG and of course Crono trigger and bahumt lagoon oh and secret of mana3 and sword of mana

Chrono Trigger & Breath of Fire seems nice.

Experiencewise, It’ll be Shadowrun, Chrono Trigger, Super Metroid and Super Castlevania IV.

Metroid was my all time favorite.

SMW, Earthbound, CT, Super Metroid, LoZ: ALttP, SMRPG, and Romancing Saga 2 (going to try 3 later).

Earthbound, Super Metroid, Starfox, Earthworm Jim, Axelay, Contra 3, Super Castlevania 4, Super Mario World, Super Mario All stars, and Mario Kart

Yeah, the Super Nintendo had the best RPGs ever made; Earthbound, Final Fantasy VI, Dragon Quest V, Super Mario RPG, the Breath of Fire series, Ogre Battle, and the (subjectively) best one, Chrono Trigger.
And that’s without even taking into account the ones that never made it out of Japan! Tales of Phantasia, for example, was incredible.

But my own all-time favourite is Sword of Mana 2. It’s really a shame it never got released in Europe or in the US, because it’s as good as Chrono Trigger. It sported a multiple-choice storyline where could pick three characters out of a total of six, to make your team. Depending on who you took with you, and the choices you made during the game, the story changed completely every time. The gameplay was an original hybrid of action and rpg, with a system of quick casting and changing weapons. There was a job system that could level up two times, with two possible paths at each level up, making up a total of 4 different “final forms” for each of the 6 characters… This game was huge, and had an enormous replay value. There was also a day / night system, and a day of the week system, which influenced both magic strengths & weaknesses, but also NPC quests… This game was really, really good!
