recommended SNES games (for emulation)

[Stiltskin]

I'm taking some time off to play some classic software titles on the snes.
What do you think the SNES 'must-have' games are?

I would choose:

RPG: Final Fantasy 6, or chrono trigger

Puzzle: super puyo puyo, or tetris battle gaiden

Platform: metal warriors, or kirby

Sports: International Superstar Soccer

Fighting: super street fighter, or killer instinct

Fighting(side-scrolling): ghost chaser, or final fight



(I know that I'm not meant to give away rom links, but I don't think that applies to really old-generation/redundant consoles like the SNES)

I've also just written a FAQ for ghost chaser:

I think you should all check out this really overlooked game.

What are your choices?

Actually, it still does. That's why I took the link out. It's not like most of them are hard to find. As for some of my favorite SNES games on an emulator, I enjoyed Terranigma a lot. Breath of Fire 2 was also much better than I remembered it being on the SNES.

Since this seems to belong in misc console discussion, I'll move it there.

RPG: Don't forget Seiken Densetsu 3 (a.k.a. Secret of Mana 2) and Romancing Saga 3, which were never officially translated to English, but thanks to translation projects they're now playable! I can't wait until Bahamut Lagoon is translated...

Fighting: Dragon Ball Z Super Butouden 2!! I wasted most of my high school life playing this game. :D

I love this game. I used to meet my friends to play DBZ SB2, DBZ SB3, DBZ Hyper Dimension, Yu Yu Hakusho 2 and Yu Yu Hakusho Final. Great fighting games.

A SNES must-have? Tokimeki Memorial, as soon as it gets translated. :p


Dragon Quest games are damn good too, as well as Front Mission.

Well Chrono Trigger and Secret of Evermore are also worth to be mentioned , the same goes for RS 3 , translated by Mana Sword !

Hehe... me and my cousin used to play DBZ2 a lot... we have our daily session of DBZ2 fight, complete with trash talking n' stuff.... the daily practice got me so good, no one could beat me even when I start with 25% life bar... oh the good old days :D

There are many... but goodies worth mentioning if you enjoyed Tales of Destiny 1 & 2 and Star Ocean 2 ...
Tales of Phantasia has been translated by Dejap and is the precurser to TOD
Star Ocean 1 is now emulated and almost completely translated...

Also Dragon Warrior 5 is translated if you are currently enjoying DW7

There are many more gems....damn we love this machine...

Bahamut Lagoon , FEDA and Rudora are also very good SNES games , the bad thing is they aren't translated yet .
