As many of you have rightly pointed out, Earthbound is NOT in fact available through Nintendo Switch Online. The party responsible for this error (Admiral Beans) has been reprimanded accordingly.
Sorry for the confusion.
There is still hope for the people, Earthbound is available on the the New 3ds and Wii U. You can even buy Earthbound beginnings on the Wii U. People really must love Earthbound. Great video you should do a top 21 part 2.
Buy a snes mini bro!!!
Hopefully one day this comment will be outdated.
i got chrono trigger on my snes mini along with tmnt and a few other games added for somewhere between 50 - 60 games total
Honestly fighting games were very popular at the time, I can't even think of the Super Nintendo without thinking of Mortal Kombat II, Mortal Kombat 3, and Killer Instinct, those games were basically Grand Theft Auto and Call Of Duty at the time, everyone was playing them, and everyone loved them. It is also a sin that Mario Kart was chosen over F-Zero, F-Zero is absolutely essential, even more than Earthbound, no one cared about Earthbound at the time, stuff like ActRaiser, and even Gradius III with its slowdowns, are much more important than Earthbound, heck NBA Jam T.E. and International Superstar Soccer are more important than Earthbound. I also would avoid All-Stars entirely, the originals are much better games than those remakes, I would rather see something like R-Type III, U.N. Squadron, Axelay, or Space Megaforce instead. Of course you need your Super Mario World, Super Metroid, Street Fighter II, A Link To the Past, Mega Man X, Kirby Super Star, Contra III, Yoshi's Island, Super Castlevania IV, and Donkey Kong Country, that goes without saying. Then for RPGs definitely Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy VI/III, Secret Of Mana, Illusion Of Gaia, the Breath Of Fire games, and Legend Of The Seven Stars, all massively popular because they were good. The Super Nintendo had a lot of good games in general like the Final Fight games, Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts, Tetris Attack, Hagane, Run Saber, Skyblazer, Imperium, Aero Fighters, HyperZone, Prince Of Percia, Sunset Riders, Sparkster, Ninja Warriors, Wild Guns, Harvest Moon, etc., it is hard to make a solid list. Many of the licensed games were fun as well, and there was a lot of those, Animaniacs, Aladdin, X-Men, The Avengers, Batman, Power Rangers, Alien, Predator, Looney Toons, Mickey Mouse, Goofy, RoboCop, The Terminator, Indiana Jones, Star Wars, but yeah, Turtles In Time would be the one to choose there. Then there is the middle ground stuff too like Battletoads & Double Dragon, the rushing beat series, Total Carnage, Smash TV, Zombies Ate My Neighbors, Ghoul Patrol, Big Sky Trooper, Cybernator, Demon's Crest, Captain Commando, Knights Of The Round, The King Of Dragons, Magic Sword, Metal Warriors, etc..
I was born in '82 and the SNES is still my favourite system
Same. Isn't it great that we'll be forty year old millennials?
'91 here and same.
Was born on 2000 and the SNES is still my all time fav console
@@Wolfdagger-pe4xu Have you come across SNES drunk's channel? I believe you might enjoy. Tons of SNES material including Japanese and European region stuff.
‘79 for me and agree 100%. Started collecting and it’s the most satisfying thing owning these carts all these years later.
“Earthbound on NSO”
*Don’t do that. Don’t give me hope.*
Edit: WE DID NOT HOPE IN VAIN!
I got impatient and got both Earthbound and Earthbound Beginnings on the Wii U like a month or two ago tho lmao
Same! Ran to my Switch to check... That hurt.
Yup. Stopped the video immediately to find out. *sigh* back to playing the video
Me too
me too :(
I dropped everything to check :(
Super Metroid is one of my all-time favorites and clearly and easily my #1 game for the SNES. I played it as a kid, and I still play it quite often (Mostly randomizer runs nowadays.)
I agree. All games in this list are beyond classics, but Super Metroid is just in a league of its own because of the game itself, what it means to the speed running community, and of course the ROM hacks.
Yeah I remember playing super Mario world because it actually was packaged with my SNES. I ended up playing that game for months beating it and then going back and getting the missing keys so I can go to the bonus stages etc. it’s truly a master piece
Indeed, it's a great game. Even today it's absolute worth to play and better than the majority of all the "modern" games imo!
Man, the snes has an insane library of games, the perfect combination of 3rd party and 1st party games, for me no console has close as many masterpieces as the snes
💯 but I still love the gamecube more, what can I say.
@@testudohorsfieldii7052 with the gameboy player takes the gamecube to another level !
@@jamess9260 ha remember many a time playing advance wars on that and all of a sudden it's 3am!
@@testudohorsfieldii7052 Your Advance wars fan, sad that series ended, it was just as great as Fire Emblem, I still have my First copy of Advance Wars from 2001. Nintendo is sleeping on a great series. They need to revive it, like Capcom did Mega Man 11 !
@@jamess9260 yeah 💯 the trouble was they tried to take it in a more realistic/ post apocalyptic direction, which sucked big time, should have kept the cartoony style.

The Super Nintendo has such a deep and broad library (plus all the Japanese exclusive games that are playable in English or have fan translations) that ranking only the top 21 is kind of a fool's errand, it's just one masterpiece after another after another. You could easily make an argument for like 50-60 games to be in the SNES's top 21.
deep and broad library? it's like 90 percent RPGs and Platformers.
@@Jolly-Green-Steve it's the snes, what did you expect?
Only 50-60? Not 100?
thanks I was lookin for this comment
Ty
My first console was the NES but when I first saw the SNES and the huge transformation going from 8 to 16 bit it was like a religious experience for me. Super Mario World is still my all time favorite Mario game.
just finished chrono trigger and it's insane. an open world map with different timezones and no "quest markers" you actually have to use your brain and talk to people (or use google sometimes ^^). and the characters are all so well done. most of these type of games i find boring but this one was done in a week and i actually shed a tear towards the end. oh and how can i forget the cutscenes, like wtf :O
If you are American, try Terranigma. You'll need an emulator though.
Did you use google to 100% Chrono Trigger? If not, play it again, guaranteed you missed a few secrets.
The SNES era was Disney’s golden age of video games. I loved playing The Lion King, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, The Jungle Book, DuckTales, Goof Troop, the Magical Quest series, The Carnival Mystery...man, I could go on and on about those games. I loved them when I was a kid. I don’t know if any other than Aladdin and Lion King are available on the Switch, though.
Magical quest 3 best
Aladdin and lion king was my shit.
Beauty and the beast was the worst game ever 😂😂😂
@@jaybundlez200 It probably was, but it seemed like 10/10 to my 5-year-old brain. I stand by
@@manassehdawkins4826 Same. I loved those games.
9:40 Earthbound is not on the Nintendo Switch Online Service tho!
He means any game for the consul not just games that are on the online service
Yeah I didn’t think so either, but I had to do a quadruple check to confirm I wasn’t going mad.
@@Ashe_Forester at 9:40 he talks specifically about earthbound
@@RosbifChaud He means it’s on the Japanese Pham come version he probably has a Nintendo switch Japan online
@@Ashe_Forester no, I just checked both the SNES and Super Famicom apps and neither have Mother 2/Earthbound. So yeah, the video's info is wrong.
I was born in the 80's and the SNES was something else!! What a good times i had with my brothers :)
Dude i'm in the same boat tho, i asked my Godmother that used to live in NY (i live in Panama btw) if she could mail me a NES, when i went to the mailbox like 2 weeks later she sent me a dam SNES i was like wtf is this, almost nobody had it on my country by that time lol, came with Super mario World, dude i played that game so much that i know almost every secret in it hahaha
Yoshi's Island was indeed a Masterpiece. It was ahead of it's time, the animation, the life, choices this game had was outta this world
better than super Mario world
The shooting mechanic too was pretty innovative
@@johnschleich8462 way better
@@johnschleich8462 Nintendo life said super Mario world is only better for him because he grew up with it
Way too easy though, takes a couple of hours to beat 😢
Surprised there's no love for Starfox/Starwing.
Probably because the og Starfox has aged HORRIBLY.
Same :(
@@paulmoore5392 actually that’s a great point, but lylatwars has aged much better especially gameplay wise so play that instead
@@paulmoore5392 I still thoroughly enjoyed it despite growing up with the 64 version.
The art style and gameplay is different enough from 64 for me that I still enjoyed my time with it finally playing it as an adult.
I couldn’t be bothered to play Star Fox even back in the 90’s. It just wasn’t that great.
DKC2, FF6, Mario World, Mega Man X, Mega Man 7, A Link to the Past, Kirby's Dream Land 3, Super Metroid, Super Ghouls n Ghosts, Demon's Crest, Castlevania 4, etc. There are so many legendary SNES games.
Super punch out is not bad too. Ill just tried it out on NSO
I still think SNES is Nintendo's best system they've created to date.
Amazing library on cutting edge hardware during its time.
Nintendo was an absolute powerhouse during the 90's.
@@ProphitDesigns genesis and snes are both awesome in their own right
@@Tweaked818 Genesis started as great but SNES killed Genesis eventually though. It wasn’t even funny at the end anymore. The 32x couldn’t save it, but SNES was still strong. The mega cd couldn’t save and the SNES was still popular at that point. SNES ruled...
Zero The Kamikaze Squirrel, The Lost Vikings 1 and 2, and Rock N Roll Racing. Just some of my personal favorites.
mario world on that SNES blew me away at the time - they nailed it in every way-- it was platform perfection and always will be - i still think its the best in the series
Many a happy memory of playing Super Mario World with my cousin when we were kids. Up there for me as one of the best gaming experiences ever
omg so true i always try for 10 minutes when i play it now 😄
Turtles in Time, yes I'm grinning like an idiot
Mega man X had a super duper killer soundtrack.
Check out Smooth Mcgroove on TH-cam! His covers to some Megan Man X songs are really good!
100%
X4 is my favorite soundtrack
Great video and great list (although F-Zero should really have been included somewhere), but you really like to live on the edge when it comes to HP management in SNES JRPGs in a way that I never could. I always like to top off even if it means being somewhat wasteful with healing spells and items.
What a list. SNES gives me so many great memories. SC4, Super Ghouls and Ghosts and Zelda 👌
Super Ghouls and Ghosts is legendary, the Dark Souls of its time. It’s frustrating but addicting. It doesn’t get mentioned enough.
Obviously Zombies Ate My Neighbors wasn't going to make this list, or most SNES top 10 (or 20) lists. But it makes mine.
💯 that's a great game but I think it came out on the megadrive as well?
@@testudohorsfieldii7052 You're right. It did. But I associate it with the SNES. I guess he's talking about exclusives.
ZAMN is a top 5 SNES game for me, easily. More people need to play it
@@TheUnknownsShow it was brilliant but I suspect the difficulty put a lot of people off
Zombies, Terranigma and DKC 2 are both my Top 3 games on SNES, of all time and could all be easily number 1s
“Earthbound is available on NSO.”
You actually gave me hope for a second there, you tease.
Also on New 3ds and Wii U
Give it time ... and maybe some hate mail to Nintendo 🤷🏾♂️
Just emulated it on an emulator its that easy🤦🏾♂️
mini snes: am i a joke to you?
I hadn’t beaten Zelda until early 2020, but almost many times. One of my favorites, as many of these others are too. You can find almost all of their roms online for SNES emulators too.
Nice list! I would add also F-Zero. The speed in that game was superb.
"Legend of The Mystical Ninja" my all time favorite game.
What the fuck is that
@@ZenDonn wow way to just be absolutely rude to someone because you dont know about a thing they like
Mario kart, DK country, Turtles in time and SMW are among my absolute favorites from my childhood, gonna look to buy them all again, I own SMW as my only game for the SNES rn, which games would you think that I should buy, or atleast recommend? Im guessing anything from this video, maybe a Bomberman game? I remember playing a bomberman game on snes as a child, but cant remember which one, any idea which it might be, or whats the best one?
Amazing!! I still have the Super Nintendo and I play it with the OSSC, which my cousin recommended me. I'm going to replay the Super Mario World because ... It's so lovely!!!! Thank you for so nice video!!! Really!!! THANK YOU!!!! ^_^
Oh by the way, when you were talking about Chrono Trigger, you completely forgot to
bring up one of the game's best things, it's soundtrack. It has literally one of the best video game soundtracks of all time without question! It's a big part of what makes the game so engaging & emotional as the soundtrack just sucks you in & makes you feel emotions you never thought a video game could make you feel back then!
I’ve played and beaten Link to the Past more times than I remember. It was so engrossing when I was 6 or 7. It’s a nostalgia trip when I play it. Link Between Worlds is great too.
me too. I can still finish it a 100% without aid and enjoy the hell out of it. probably my favourite game ever besides Chrono Trigger
Who could forget playing A Link Between Worlds back in the 90's, amirite?
That was my favorite game as wel and hard as hell. I couldn’t get past the water level in the dark work and it wasn’t until much later that I went back and finally beat it. I was so close to the end!
@@frightenedsoul Water Levels always give my anxiety in Zelda games.
Link to the Past and Wind Waker are my favorite Zelda games of all time
Yoshi's island is the first game I remember ever playing and it’s kept a special place in my heart. I’m kind of surprised Kirby Super Star did not make the list, the coop alone in that game always kept it at hand. Great video!
So many hidden gems on this list of snesss games. I've not heard of most of these or bought them multiple times throughout the years. I'm fixxin to see if dez are on switch to play with my husband's son. Great bideo. Make more.
The SNES library is awesome. Many excellent games that are now considered cold classics.
Nothing has came anywhere close since.
It's that Nintendo Orchestra music and mode 7
@Tom Ffrench not remotely close
Note: The versions of Street Fighter 2 on the Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection are the arcade ROMs, not the SNES ports.
The SNES was my console. I could only get one in my 20's in the early 2000's, but I thoroughly enjoyed every second of every games In played. I was into more obscure games though like New Horizons, Sid Meier's civilization, Secret of Evermore.
The joy of just holding the unwrapped Super Nintendo game box in your hands while riding back home from the store, the anticipation building as you read every word multiple times, marveling at the game pictures on the back of the box saying to yourself “I can’t believe I’m holding this game in my hands “ the memories that will never be duplicated ever again
Never heard a better expression of the love that Mario World deserves (and that I have for it) than this.
Super Metroid all the way!!
Too true...
Amen
Super Metroid shocks me with its atmosphere.
It is definitely my favorite SNES game despite me having grown up with Super Mario World, DK Country, and A Link To The Past instead.
The best game ever made if you ask me.
@Matuscara ت Super Metroid
A great list and very well presented! My additions: Starwing/Starfox, Batman Returns, F-Zero, Another World, Mechwarrior, R-Type, Bomberman. They might not stand up today but they're ones I have fond memories of.
yes!!
Great titles!
Why don't they stand up today? There's far more enjoyment to be had in retro games in my opinion. Much of today's games rely on photo-realistic, movie-esque visuals and audio, and obsession with online play and features, rather than what made games so good in the first place i.e. the gameplay. Do you reckon today's titles will still have the same nostalgic appreciation and love in thirty years that classic NES, MS, SNES, Mega Drive, Saturn and N64 ones do? Methinks not.
@@Nightopian1982 you’re completely right. It’s just sometimes your memory of a game, and experiencing it as a child is often better than the reality of playing it again when you’re older.
@@Nightopian1982 exactly my opinion. It's not only nostalgic reasons, the "older games" are simply the better ones! Original ideas, original concepts etc. I rather have a simple, funny game than a super fancy 3D game. If I want to watch a movie, I watch a movie!
What more could "I" ask for when it comes to the classic Ninja Turtles games, Is to be able to play them all on current gen consoles. 2 and 3 on the NES plus Turtles in time, hell even throw in the remake from a few years ago. it's a shame we can't play them easily. plus the fighter game would be a fun throwback as well.
You only had to wait a year to get your wish! All TMNT games together on modern systems!
All in all, pretty awesome list! So many timeless games 🤩
The classics as expected. I agree, they're untouchable.
But man, this system has some real hidden gems going on. Wild Guns, Demons Crest, Firepower 2000, Hagane, Knights of the Round, Super Turrican 2 and so on. The list is endless.
Demons Crest has a killer soundtrack
Firepower 2000 👍👍
@@twincherries6698 Definitely! Best Nintendo console ever imo.
I thought Shinobi was the best, till I played Hagane
Actraiser!! :D
Okay, first and foremost, I wanna show my appreciation to the fact that this has to be the first and ONLY video covering what someone says are the best games on Super Nintendo and they actually PERSONALIZE the list. You kept saying these were YOUR favorites and in YOUR opinion. You never spoke matter-of-factly as if it's etched in stone that something is the best PERIOD like literally every other copy and paste video list does. So I wanna thank you for that. It doesn't even matter what games you put out. Just saying these were YOUR personal favorites is what makes this list the best if not one of them. Thumbs up, dude.
Loved Super Mario World and Donkey Kong 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. However, the greatest RPG on the SNES was hands down, Tales of Phantasia. That game was way ahead of its time and it was unmatched in terms of graphics and gameplay. The only drawback was that the game was never available in English, however, it was later translated and available for download.
Chrono Trigger is better.
Hard agree with Tales of Phantasia!
I honestly really wasn’t a fan of it. The battle system was weird and not particularly fun and the story was kinda crap as well.
This shows once again what a great package the SNES mini is!
I never even heatd of the SNES mini, until now.
Why spend money on games if you can just get an emulator and dl the ROMs
@@sonhadorpr Because the SNES Mini is legal and emulator isn't. The mini was great value at retail price. And you get a tiny cute version of the original console as an extra perk. :)
for Chrono Trigger, I would highly recommend playing the DS version
Why
Probably because it has cutscenes
@@adrenalinex4 because it’s a very good “portable” make of the game. I know it’s also on droid/iOS but the DS made good use of the second screen as I recall.
@@sebastianhurst958 The Android/IOS/PC versions have graphical "improvements" that actually look worse than the original graphics, whereas the DS version graphics are as faithful to the SNES original as possible.
The Android version also AFAIK has a nasty DRM that requires you to be online to play it. Which is the reason I stopped purchasing anything made by Square for mobile devices; I got hit with it on one of the Final Fantasy remakes, which prevented me from playing the game I legally purchased in the places I expected (where I didn't have mobile Internet), so I gave up on anything mobile made by Square.
The one I currently play, though, is the PC version. It has improved, and there are mods to restore most of the changed graphics. It also has all the extras of the DS version.
Playing the PC version and lovin' it. Except for those button prompts. Those are a b*tch.
Great video. I couldn't agree more with you for the titles. Except for Earthbound/ Mother 2, I do have all other titles. We only differ in the ranking here and there, but that's a logical outcome due to personal preferences.
Again...very nice!
Thank you for such enthusiastic reviews. I felt like looking for many of them. I was 16 when the SNES came out and was getting more into parties and meeting girls than into video games. Still, I loved Mario Kart, Street fighter and a few others. But never knew about Contra, Mega Man or even the remastered Marios. I've never been able to get involved with RPGs. I like quick-to-play games like Punch out, Mario, Mario Kart where you are in the middle of the action within the first 10 seconds after you turn the console on. Cheers!
I completed LttP for the first time ever today at age 38. :)
Oh, that's awesome. I'm not sure I ever beat it as a kid either. My mom did though...I think I was about 33-34
I hope Square Enix keeps up with the anniversary collections and newly localized games, because I'd love to see a Soul Blazer collection that collects the three main games in that series.
That would be amazing!
Can include Actraiser and Actraiser 2 please!
Terranigma for the win!
They stated their goal is all their games on modern consoles.
And... Terranigma
Thanks this was helpful! My uncle just gave me an snes model 001 but no controllers, games, or power supply, so now I know what to get at the retro video games store.
Tears in my eyes while watching your video. Old memories of 90s just came in my mind 😢😢
The SNES Controller + Library are one of the greatest things in videogame history!
Sadly, games were soooo expensive, no internet or cellphones, that promoting these things were sooo difficult & expensive that many masterpieces didn't get any hype, until the 2010's where game collecting became mainstream.
True. Games were ridiculously expensive. In the UK SF2 Turbo cost about £65 at launch.
I love that there’s so much love for SMW here. I really couldn’t agree more and is defo in my top 5 games of all time. If you haven’t (which I’m sure you already have) please try SM Maker 2, it has so many nods to SMW in the campaign that it feels like a sequel / outtakes or something, you’ll love to.
The snes is still my favorite console to this day. The graphics style is so charming and gives me such heavy nostalgia
Super Mario World would have to be my favourite game of all time.. I've had other favourites, like Minecraft and No Man's Sky, but there were many points in time where I hated those games and I proclaimed it.. but I've never hated SMW. frustrated yes, but I've always come back to it and loved it.
Now surprisingly enough, Super Mario Wonder is looking like it may actually surpass that. I just hope there's some more variety that they're not showing us.

What about F-ZERO? At least it could of had a special mention.
I'd have replaced SF Turbo for it, mostly because of overlap. I still feel it's the best racer on the SNES.
never cared for that game even when it came out
@@ChescoYT Neither did I, then I played it. It is still a great game. Better than SNES Mario Kart by a large margin.
F-Zero is the best racing game on the system.
@@mathewsoltan8487 if only it had multiplayer...but even so I still consider it a true racing game when compared to Mario Kart at least.
Great list. A lot of those games were a huge part of my childhood. I’ve missed out on most of the rpgs, I’m going to have to check out Chrono trigger and final fantasy. Most of these games I’ve bought for the switch, like contra and collection of mana.
I agree with your #1 too. Best game. Cuz yoshi
Interesting tidbit in relation to "how do they fit all that on a cart?" for Chrino Trigger.
Chrino Trigger is a 32 bit cartridge, has a larger rom size and as I recall actually has more chips and weighs more than a typical cartridge.
Aw yes! My childhood. Here's hoping Nintendo add more to the online service. I am looking at you chrono trigger
@Lavos whadia mean they sample music from out of real songs?
I get the feeling that Square will release CT separately as part of a Chrono collection alongside Cross like what they did with the Mana collection.
"You've no one to blame but everyone" had no right to hit as hard as it did, I love it
17:41 I was lucky to purchase Chrono Trigger on my Wii system along with other SNES games mentioned here. I also had a free download for the Earthbound game on my Wii U. Yesssss!!!
I place Super Metroid at #1 not only because its what many have described as the perfect game (ahem, wall jump isn't necessary accept for speed run) but because it created a whole new genre
My greatest achievement in gaming was playing through Zelda: A link to the past in one run without any deaths and getting a final screen with a save and death count of 000.
*bows*
I think I did that with a game genie 😂😂
@@stevenking4617 i also beaten that game without getting any deaths.
Bottles and faeries
It's incredible how objectively the best game on the system was the pack-in game. You'll never see that ever again.
Well, switch has Breath of the wild.
Only future will tell if there comes a better game, but it would still be one of the best games on the switch.
... What do you mean it is not a pack-inn game? Everybody who bought a switch at launch got it, that makes it a pack-inn!
@@Tyrisalthan Breath of the Wild is a launch game. Super Mario World was literally packed in with the SNES similar to how Wii Sports was bundled with the Wii.
There's no such thing as the "objectively best game". I love SMW, but I would personally rank several games ahead of it.
@@felixronkainen8880 There is an almost universal agreement that SMW is one of the best SNES games. Is it going to apply for everyone, no, but the majority agree it is one of the best. So, it can objectively be the best SNES game. I'm not saying it is, but you cannot deny it being up there as one of the greats.
@@MilkWasABadChoice17 Sure, but something can only be objectively true if it's a literal fact. Even if many people have a common opinion on something, it's still an opinion, not a fact. Therefore it cannot be objective.
I don't mean to be a contrarion or anything; I love SMW. It's just a big pet peeve of mine when that word gets misused.
SUNSET RIDERS needs to be added to this list! 💯
Great video Sir. I made a list of all the games from this video cause I liked it so much. Thank you.
I fondly remember Ridley’s theme playing in background throughout my play-through both Chrono Trigger and Link to the Past too!
Super Mario rpg and Donkey Kong Country were two of my favorites.
I watch these videos and play most of them the same day. I enjoy the short review style.
I’ve only beaten smw on every platform. Great list, thanks!
i have to say with this video there wasnt enough waffling before we dove into things.
Agreed
*dived
@@eddsnake no
@@eddsnake the past tense of dive is dove....
@@mattflub In USA maybe, here in the UK and the rest of the world it’s dived.
I love how Theme of Simon gets a super extended play. It's that good!
I also used to love Axelay, Hagane (even though it's so difficult), Super Turrican 2, Super Return of the Jedi, Street Fighter Alpha 2 to name a few more.
I'd have personally had Zelda a Link to the Past as number one, followed by Street Fighter 2 Turbo and Super Mario World, but it's a great list. I've never fallen out of love with the SNES and Mega Drive, but I'm really getting back into them again.
It sounds odd, but I'm actually kind of glad I've never got into modern machines. I've played on a number of games from them, but I'm not too fussed. A lot of 'tits and arse and no substance' springs to mind when I think of modern games.
Great list, what a walk down memory lane!!
Wow I’m super surprised to see that Terranigma made the list!! My favorite game of all time. If you haven’t played it then you need to ASAP. The music, the story, the gameplay.. its 10X better than ALTTP imo.
It really is an amazing game.
Earthbound on NSO? Uh.... Wait I literally checked the app to play it and it's not there
he got it wrong
Was about to check then realize its NSO
New 3ds and Wii U
I remember a game that I played with a friend on snes. It was like a action game that u could play multiplayer and choose between characters. Cant remember much of it but can remember that we played it alot.
As someone who’s getting into 3ds modding rn, this was really helpful
Secret of evermore is the only one missing from my tops
Agree. That game was so good but advertised poorly.
Amen brother, I play it at least once a year, it's definitely in my top 10 SNES games.
Terranigma getting some love made my day ❣️ the very best RPG story by a million miles. Incredibly emotional soundtrack. Masterpiece! Nintendo please give this a re-release. People need to experience this.
i am currently emulating it
@@cosmo_4785 fantastic! I hope you’re enjoying the story
@@jamus9_games967 i am really enjoying i just completed the second tower
What character in DKC3 makes you think it's the best? I enjoyed the overworld elements and the flags showing what coins you'd collected in each level.
I've beaten SMW countless times. Such great replayability. It really is one of the greatest video games of all time.
Hearing Castlevania IV's theme playing over top of DKC, Mega Man X, and TMNT was astonishingly bizarre.
I just want to give a quick shout out to Drakkhen.
It was released on the Amiga initially, and later ported to SNES. Despite having a sort of odd gameplay set up, it was quite ahead of its time. It predated open world RPGs such as The Elder Scrolls, Dragon Age, Knights of The Old Republic, and plenty of others with its pseudo 3D graphics and real time combat.
Plus the SNES version had a fantastic soundtrack that holds up well to this day. Arguably one of the more under appreciated titles in the library that's often overlooked due to it being kind of weird at first.
Yes of course Drakkhen1&2
Right there with you. Super Mario World was my first favorite game as a kid.
I did not grow up with an SNES but I absolutely love Super Mario World and whenever I'm bored and have nothing to play I just hop on Mario World and do another run. It's in my top 3 favorite Mario games and my top 10 games of all time. The Cape feather is the best Mario power up by the way.
Love that contra 3 starts things off. Hands down my favorite game for the SNES. I occasionally try to beat it on hard even nowadays!!!
Yup!!! I definitely still play it right now
The skull head boss in difficult? I ALWAYS got killed
Yeah it's a masterpiece. I can only make it to the 2nd last level on HARD mode. That 2nd top down view level boss is so difficult that he always kilks me
super castlevania 4 needs more love! can't believe it's only 14!
Seriously! Even TMNT beat it....
Maybe High Difficulty Biased. Super Contra 3 was damn Good for about 3 levels... Then it's unplayable
That's his opinion, I brought Castlenania 4 back in the day. That and Super Double Dragon, played in the 90s all the time.
I agree. My 2nd favorite SNES game behind SMW.
@@mhans311 what about Super Metroid? Chrono Trigger?
Mario RPG? Donkey Kong Country 1 & 2, ActRaiser, Mario All Stars?
The SNES was my first ever video game console. My dad got it for us for Christmas, along with Disney’s Aladdin, Top Gear, and Tetris Attack (Yoshi Island Edition). And later I got Super Mario All Stars. An old childhood friend would sometimes let me borrow Mega Man X2 and Batman Forever or we would play Bomberman together.
This is the first time I've ever heard someone say "snezz" which I love, lol. I grew up saying S-N-E-S.
Shout out to Yoshi games looking so cute but being more challenging than Mario games.
Except the new ones
I'm so happy Super Mario World was No. 1. It's literally my favourite game ever, and I would die of happiness if it got an HD remake in the Kotabe style, or even the NSMB style.
@@twincherries6698 Glad to hear it, what is it that you love about it? You should message me on Instagram if you want, I'm called YoshiDude1991.
Some of my favorites unmentioned: 7th Saga, King of Dragons, FF: Mystic Quest,
Super Mario All-Stars, Sunset Riders...
Honorable mention to Drakkhen
The SNES made me a loyal Nintendo fan for life. I got it for Christmas in ‘93 when I was 7 years old after begging my parents for months upon months. It became more than video games for me after that. It became a way of life. I like other systems too don’t get me wrong, but the SNES made me fall in love with gaming and I still love the SNES at 36 years old.
I got Chrono Trigger on the DS and had no idea how great it was going to be when I got it. Best used game from GameStop ever.
If you got a ps3 or Ps Vita, it might be still available at the psn store, I got it on my psp go.
Remember when it first came out. Got it for Christmas
Super Mario RPG, Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana and Final Fantasy 6 consumed a ton of my life. Then of course Mario World, LttP, Super Metroid and DKC are super classics. Man the SNES was gold.
IS!!!! The SNES IS gold...
Lol
I really liked Rock'n Roll Racing!
Just found this video and subscribed on the strength of it, thank you! P.S no killer instinct??
