I used the name 'Super Famicom' as a personal preference, but in reality all titles from any continent are fine.

The rules to follow are just these 3.

01) Do not use text only, but always share images. Take your pick among covers, screenshots, ads or all 3. If you want to go further by attaching video or sound clips as well, even better for everyone.

02) Choose to talk about what really engaged you and in the way you prefer, rather than what the ears of the majority of the surviving audience today would like to hear.

03) Never talk about these 25 titles unless it is to make a comparison/citation.

The Super Famicom will celebrate its 40th anniversary in 4 years and this platform saw the publication of nearly 2000 games, but for how much longer do we have to hear about the continuous idealization of only these 25?

A really neat hidden gem despite how challenging it could get sometimes. I love the soundtrack and the rope mechanic is absurdly realistic for a 16-bits game. I also like the digitized pictures in the background.

I could've talked about Kirby's Dream Land 3 or Fushigi no Dungeon Furai no Shiren (aka Mystery Dungeon Shiren the Wanderer in the west) but I had it in mind first.

Kind of a mess up that the “don’t talk about” list doesn’t include any heavy hitters from Square aside from Mana lmao
This thread will fill up with classic JRPG love instantly, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

That, and Mega Man. I have no idea how X1 at least wasn’t included in the list, though perhaps it’s because of the heavy policing of “anything MegaMan MUST go in the Mega-Thread”.

As for looking for new games that you may never have heard of: when in doubt, you go SNESDrunk. He’ll get you set up nice and quickly. The library of the SNES is quite fully featured and has tons of games that stand out.

As an example: the single greatest home port of Parodius Da!
I’d even say it eclipses the Saturn and PS1 version, quite frankly!

PLEASE TALK ABOUT DREAM LAND 3! I also love that game and I wouldn’t mind to talk more about it!

Such a charming game and a rare example of deliberately having a strong artstyle back in the day, choosing to go for the crayon aesthetic. It basically brings all the fun of Dream Land 2 onto the Super Famicom! Now with more cats, octopi, and cleaning.

I always wonder why people forget Rockman x series in the super famicom, for me it was a great trilogy of games, and it was the start catalyst for my passion in robotics-mecha style themes.

These games suck and I kinda love them.

I wanted to mention a certain game, but I do not want to sound like a broken record on this forum, so I will just say Aladdin. It is a charming game with nice physics and presentation. The Capcom style works well with Disney. It is not very difficult, but it remains enjoyable all the way to the end.

Kirby not being on the list is kinda crazy. Kirby Super Star and Dream Land 3 are easily in the top 10 SNES games for me. Dream Course is a lot of fun too.
Super Star literally changed the way I thought about platformers, and what I found fun in video games. I've been dying for a full-length game that plays like The Great Cave Offensive for my whole life.
I always felt like Dream Land 3 nailed the cozy crayon vibes better than Yoshi's Island, which isn't too surprising considering it came out 2 years after Yoshi's Island, but damn!!!! Look how pretty this game is!!!! Yoshi's Island didn't have a funny fish companion either. 2-0 Dream Land 3.

Plok is cool too. The game itself isn't as good as Nintendo's platformers, and the camera holds the game back super hard for me, but that soundtrack is insane. Something, something, Plok inspired Yoshi's Island, bla bla bla.

Pocky and Rocky always felt a little overlooked to me, despite a lot of people knowing about it.

Does Smash TV count, even though it's an arcade port?

Uhhh......... Phalanx?
