The fact that you're such a big part of the retro gaming sphere, and you haven't completed some of these "essential" titles is so relateable and refreshing. Not everyone has played everything. Not everyone had the same games or consoles. And a game like Chrono Trigger requires a big commitment. Some games fall through the net, and no one should be calling for your gaming license if they do. Nice one, Kim!
Hit the nail on the head there! I still haven't played chrono trigger and the older I get and the less time I have in the day its getting less likely I will get around to it
@@retrorystergaming577 Definitely! It's taken me a month to fire up 3D Dot Heroes after I bought it on eBay, and I've bearly been able to play it for an hour without being needed elsewhere!
I wasn't the only one watching going "omg it's not just me!" then! XD I blame my ADHD for me playing a game, going "that's so cool I must continue!..." then getting distracted by another shiny.
@@PoutingTrevor yea mate I feel you. Adult life unfortunately. When I hear my friends say theyve put 50hours of game time into say Ghost of Tsushima or Red dead 2 im thinking how on earth is that even possible???
When it came out I played it to death. When we used to go to Laser Quest I always used Anders (the turncoat Shadowrunner) as my name. Great story and music. Last completed it a few years ok.
@@maximumpowerup531 When I first played it I thought Anders was the only shadowrunner you could hire as when you highlighted him it said 'shadowrunner' lol. Then I found out you could hire nearly everyone at the clubs. I loved the atmosphere of that game the awesome cyberpunk setting . The music was great the rat shaman and vampire arc was a little out there.
It is a very special game indeed. When i first played a ROM of it back in the early-mid 2000s the first thing I thought was "this feels like a more grown up smash tv". And indeed, the devs who ported that arcade classic to the SNES (the defining version in my opinion) also made Shadowrun, and even some of the music sounds very similar!
Haha I did the same thing. It’s still my favourite game of all time. It’s incredible how well the gameplay and graphics holds up. As good as a lot of other SNES games look, nothing comes close to how incredible Yoshi’s Island looks.
I'd rank Mario Kart higher than fzero. And original Sim City had so much charm for a city builder. Would include secret of mana. Really SNES needs at least a top100 list to do it justice :)
Super mariokart, zelda, super mario world, zombies ate my neighbours, secret of mana, shadowrun, syndicate, powermonger, bomberman, sim city, populus, king arthurs world...some of my favourite games.
Probably the best console of all time. There are so many great games that didn't make this list. Desert Strike, Flashback, Alien 3, Might and Magic, Super Bomberman, Legend of Mystical Ninja, Tiny Toon Adventures, NBA Jam, I could go on and on.
KIM this list was dynamite. I respect the hell out of this list..you kept it true to yourself and i love the hell out of a it a lot more then a lot of other youtubers. You thoroughly impressed me here. Great work.
I don't remember that being a thing either, but that may be because I am from the US and she is from the UK and reaction to yoshi may have been different over there for what ever reason. Though even if it IS something that is a misconception on her part it's entirely trivial and NOT something to basically bash someone over in the comments section, for crying out loud people.
I know what you mean with Sim City 2000. I did not have anything that could run Doom until the SNES version came out. I played the heck out of it. I beat all the episodes. I know it gets criticized a lot but its still perfectly payable.
(Hagane: The Final Conflict) was never a Blockbuster Exclusive, that was just an urban myth started by CGRundertoe and Mike Matei that just ended up inflating the after market price. SNES Drunk even debunked this in one of his Videos th-cam.com/video/j7Mkyb5uX0A/w-d-xo.html
Yoshi's Island is such a masterpiece. Aside from getting 100% i can't even really think of anything about it that I dislike. It checks out on everything that I love about 2d platformers.
Me too! My favourite game of all time, doesn’t get the credit it deserves. Holds up insanely well, the game still looks incredible to today. Going through this list it looks like it’s a generation beyond every other game on this list.
Just found you last night. Big fan. Also I love your opening. Brings me back to the 80s/90s for some odd reason. Anyhow. Keep up the good work. And thanks for the great videos.
Holly smoke! I'm a big Rik Mayall fan and just watched his Nintendo adverts on you tube thanks to your video! With an advertising campaign like that, Iit's no wonder I bought a gameboy and snes in the 90's and am still addicted to Nintendo today..😂
I remember winning rounds of Biker Mice From Mars by just killing all the opponents one by one instead of actually racing. Good times. Nice seeing some The Firemen representation.
Chrono Trigger is definitely #1 in my opinion. I suppose I'm biased as this game was one of the first RPGs I played on Super Nintendo, outside of LOZ. I feel like it *WAS* a hidden gem, not so much anymore, but hey! still gotta love this game.

You know a system has a fantastic line-up of titles when, even though it's known far & wide as an RPG machine, _and_ is home to some of the greatest console RPGs of all time...only 2 RPGs make the top 50 of a Top 50 list.
Really enjoyed this list, completely different from my own (which is why I love these lists). The 3rd in my list isn't even featured here 🙈 and I 100% agree that DKC is my favorite of the series as well.
Great list! And by that I mean that I, of course, disagree with most of it but it was still entertaining and informative! I envy the fact that you have yet to play / finish so many Zelda games and Square classics. I wish I could experience those for the first time again. I recommend Dragon Quest 5 in particular. It's often overlooked in the west, but it's part of the SNES holy trinity of rpgs alongside FF6 and Chrono Trigger.
Great video, watched it again straight after. But Kim, where's Super Bomberman? and Final Fight? There are so many more great SNES games, would you ever expand this to top 100?
Great video mate. Agree with the placing on Yoshi’s Island, great to see it get some love, far and away the best looking game on the system. Not to mention the incredible level design. The one I would argue with the placement the most is DKC2, platforming perfection in my opinion. My Top 5 is: 1. Yoshi’s Island 2. Donkey Kong Country 2 3. Super Metroid 4. Final Fantasy VI 5. Chrono Trigger
I've had many people argue with me that they just weren't a fan of the digitized graphics at the time. Although, I think many people were just burnt out on the use of them after Mortal Kombat popularized it and the style sort of blew up. The art style really has nothing to do with how great the game is, so I never got the argument.
Holy shit. The exact same thing always happened to me with FF6. Chrono Trigger on the other hand, I slept like 4 hours total between starting it and finishing. Edit: F Zero's soundtrack is one of the best of all time
It appears to be almost a direct cross between FF and LOZ.. I have trouble with the inventory system tho.. I can totally relate to where he implies he loses his place with RPGs.. I do love the genre however
The SNES is my second favourite console. Nice to see you mentioned Kirby’s Dream Course, my fave. I have poor hand eye coordination and the game does not require twitch reflexes only planning.
I'll be honest, I'm surprised Super Mario World wasn't in the top 10, especially considering the time. There was simply nothing quite like it for the first couple of years of the SNES life.
Hagane being a Blockbuster exclusive is actually a myth caused by the Mandela Effect due to everyone confusing the exclusivity of ClayFighters: Sculptor's Cut with Hagane.
Yes hagane wasn't a blockbuster exclusive at all, it was available anywhere, even by mail order in SNES mags. Final fight guy was a BB exclusive, hagane wasn't.
It was the same situation for me with Sim City 2000, I so wanted but would never have the right stuff at home to play it. Then one day I walked into Dixons and they had Sim City 2000 for £49.99. I played it to death and was an amazing port for the SNES. I played it right up to the day I got my PC years later.
@Marcus M, same story here, except I bought my copy of the game through the mail from a video game store in New Jersey, USA (I think), along with some other good shooter games, namely, Darius Twin, Phalanx, Super R-Type, and R-Type III: The Third Lightning (which both Phalanx and R-Type III: The Third Lightning also have GBA ports).
If the slowdown in Super Ghouls n' Ghosts bothers you, you may want to try the version that on Capcom Classics Collection for PS2. I don't know if it was intentionally overclocked or if it's just an emulation issue, but it seriously reduces the slowdown if not removing it entirely - at least on the NTSC version, never played it on PAL.
Great list but you missed a couple of great games. Pocky and Rocky, True Lies, The Chaos Engine, SENSIBLE SOCCER, CANNON FODDER, Jim Power, Legend and many others.
This is a true story, but one of my high school teachers told me about how much that they loved playing The Lost Vikings and I have yet to play the game. :(
@53:42-53:55= PLEASE tell me, oh Dear Justice, that this means that after all these years we're finally getting a "Top 20 Worst SNES Games"? because, let's face it... just like you said in your "Top 20 Worst Mega Drive/Genesis Games Redone" a few years back : "ah; people like shit!" (you've no idea how long I've waited to make that joke, LOL!)
Excellent video!! It's a very good list of 50 game gems from the best of SNES. And the important thing about everything that includes all variety of genres and is aimed at all tastes and is a great guide to selecting and buying games. Cheers!!
The spiritual prequel and sequel to Super Smash T.V., which are Robotron 2084 and Total Carnage, respectively, also got SNES/NSFC ports, the latter under its own title and the former under an arcade collection that is called Williams' Arcade Greatest Hits. Both games also got Sega Genesis/Mega Drive ports under the same titles as they appeared on the SNES/NSFC, and Smash T.V. even had a surprisingly good NES/FDS port as well.
Long time fan, awesome video as usual. Wanted to say though, Hagane actually wasnt a blockbuster exclusive, I believe that got debunked 2 years ago, but yeah it's so odd the story behind that one in general lol anyways look forward to the next vid!
I still remember demons crest being stacked walls deep at the toy shops when i was a wee lad because nobody ever bought it. If only i had bought the whole damn shelve lol.
As an American, the lack of knowledge the British have of the NES continues to baffle me. But I must say, the amount of Speccy (and certain C64) classics is even more baffling!
I played Sim City 2000 back in the days. It really was great. I even needed to create a start disk so it could run with my 4 MB RAM machine. That was the first time I created one and I felt like a god when it worked. Music and sound only worked when I upgraded to 8 MB though.
All 3 SNES Capcom Mickey games are superior to the Genesis Mickey games. The second one was definitely the worst and was released on the Genesis as well.
my top 10 Gemfire Liberty or Death Aerobiz Uncharted Waters Sim City Ken Griffey Jr. Presents Major League Baseball Inindo: Way of the Ninja Chrono Trigger Robotrek Final Fantasy IV
Kudo's on SimCity2000, love that game, it's one that you can always fire up when you actually want to kill some time on a game. I even play the original sometimes... one of the few games that you have to take slowly. I remember getting the Playstation version, and leaving it on for days on end just collecting taxes.
The fact that you're such a big part of the retro gaming sphere, and you haven't completed some of these "essential" titles is so relateable and refreshing. Not everyone has played everything.

Came to comments to say just this....Drop Dead Fred is an underrated movie and should have got a lot more praise as a classic comedy.
Shadowrun was my all time favourite on the SNES!!
One of my alltime fave games👍-Paul
@@maximumpowerup531 Awesome to hear!! I don't meet many people who have played it let alone it being one of their favourites there chummer

this is my ~5th time watching this, it's always late at night and i fall asleep to your vids...best thing i've found this year is kim
I got to number 2 on the list and thought "this is Bullshit where is Yoshi's Island".
Then I got to number one and tipped my hat to Kim.
Haha I did the same thing. It’s still my favourite game of all time. It’s incredible how well the gameplay and graphics holds up. As good as a lot of other SNES games look, nothing comes close to how incredible Yoshi’s Island looks.
I'm really falling in love with the channel after a few days of scouring. The long format stuff especially is great
Hagane being a Blockbuster exclusive is actually (ACK-chually) just an urban legend.
Love these lists, Kim! Keep up the good work!
Fantastic list as always. I have to go with Super Metroid and Earthbound as my personal faves on the system.
I'd rank Mario Kart higher than fzero. And original Sim City had so much charm for a city builder. Would include secret of mana. Really SNES needs at least a top100 list to do it justice :)

1. Super Mario Kart
2. Streetfighter 2 Turbo
3. Link to the Past
4. Super Mario World
5. Super Tennis
Had never heard of or played Hagane. Cheers for that recommendation. Will check it out.
Love the details and uniqueness in your lists! Long live the SNES! 🎉
Eh? People didn't like Yoshi at the time? That's new to me
I was gonna say the same! I think it's Toad that people hate because of his annoying presence in the Mario cartoons.
Yeah don’t remember that at all. Had a SNES when it came out
Dumb. Fucking loved Yoshi.
I don't remember that being a thing either, but that may be because I am from the US and she is from the UK and reaction to yoshi may have been different over there for what ever reason. Though even if it IS something that is a misconception on her part it's entirely trivial and NOT something to basically bash someone over in the comments section, for crying out loud people.
Everybody in my third grade class could draw Yoshi.
Kim , you truly are the best.
Can't wait for you to make one of these list for the PS1, my favorite console. It's still fun to watch these in the mean time though :D
I know what you mean with Sim City 2000. I did not have anything that could run Doom until the SNES version came out.

Ahh, Axelay. The first game to let me lay my axe.

Another great video Kim! I always find at least few new games to check out in all your lists, so keep up the great work!
Def play more Kirby games, theyre fantastic.
Big money, Big prizes - I love it!. I played it a lot. don't think that i ever got to the pleasure dome.
It's incredible how small in size a lot of SNES games are, but are definitely packed full of value.
Super Probotector is in my top 5. 😎👍
I remember winning rounds of Biker Mice From Mars by just killing all the opponents one by one instead of actually racing. Good times.
Nice seeing some The Firemen representation.
The aesthetic in the clip of Actraiser reminds me of the second zone in Sonic the Hedgehog.

Lufia II Rise of the Sinistrals is a really underrated JRPG
Great video like always. Surprised to not see super punch out in your list since punch out scored so high in your nes list.

Secret of mana was also a jrpg classic on snes.
Great list, the only thing missing is the fantastic RPG Secret of Mana.

I've had many people argue with me that they just weren't a fan of the digitized graphics at the time. Although, I think many people were just burnt out on the use of them after Mortal Kombat popularized it and the style sort of blew up. The art style really has nothing to do with how great the game is, so I never got the argument.
Thank you Kim. A well enjoyed episode.
Holy shit. The exact same thing always happened to me with FF6. Chrono Trigger on the other hand, I slept like 4 hours total between starting it and finishing.
Edit: F Zero's soundtrack is one of the best of all time
Carrier airwing IS THE BEST. NOBODY EVER REFERENCES THIS GAME. Except kim. 3 times now. Seriously you gotta play it if you have not!
Got the pcb - awesome game. But then I’m a big fan of UN Squadron too so no surprise I guess
No secret of mana?
It appears to be almost a direct cross between FF and LOZ.. I have trouble with the inventory system tho.. I can totally relate to where he implies he loses his place with RPGs.. I do love the genre however
Love your videos pal, this was one of my favourite, as they just physically have better graphics than the Megadrive!
The SNES is my second favourite console. Nice to see you mentioned Kirby’s Dream Course, my fave. I have poor hand eye coordination and the game does not require twitch reflexes only planning.
Great list! I would've included puzzlers like Panel de Pon/Tetris Attack and Super Puyo Puyo 2.
I'll be honest, I'm surprised Super Mario World wasn't in the top 10, especially considering the time. There was simply nothing quite like it for the first couple of years of the SNES life.
Hagane being a Blockbuster exclusive is actually a myth caused by the Mandela Effect due to everyone confusing the exclusivity of ClayFighters: Sculptor's Cut with Hagane.

Wasn't anything to do with the Mandela effect either.🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣
I will try not to judge to much on this this is my favorite system
It was the same situation for me with Sim City 2000, I so wanted but would never have the right stuff at home to play it. Then one day I walked into Dixons and they had Sim City 2000 for £49.99. I played it to death and was an amazing port for the SNES. I played it right up to the day I got my PC years later.

Yeah, I had it for the Amiga, hen I got the Snes version, loved i!
Been looking forward to this.
If the slowdown in Super Ghouls n' Ghosts bothers you, you may want to try the version that on Capcom Classics Collection for PS2. I don't know if it was intentionally overclocked or if it's just an emulation issue, but it seriously reduces the slowdown if not removing it entirely - at least on the NTSC version, never played it on PAL.
Or just emulate it and overclock the CPU and while you're at it remove the sprite limit to get rid of the annoying flickering.
Great list but you missed a couple of great games. Pocky and Rocky, True Lies, The Chaos Engine, SENSIBLE SOCCER, CANNON FODDER, Jim Power, Legend and many others.
Everything I excepted was here. Only game I also thought would appear on this list is Earthbound.
I think you meant expected not excepted, which is like exception to the rule?
This is a true story, but one of my high school teachers told me about how much that they loved playing The Lost Vikings and I have yet to play the game. :(
The SNES had so many good games, I don't think I'd be able to make a top 50 list, but I definitely would have put Mario RPG and Kirby Superstar on it.

The spiritual prequel and sequel to Super Smash T.V., which are Robotron 2084 and Total Carnage, respectively, also got SNES/NSFC ports, the latter under its own title and the former under an arcade collection that is called Williams' Arcade Greatest Hits. Both games also got Sega Genesis/Mega Drive ports under the same titles as they appeared on the SNES/NSFC, and Smash T.V. even had a surprisingly good NES/FDS port as well.
Long time fan, awesome video as usual. Wanted to say though, Hagane actually wasnt a blockbuster exclusive, I believe that got debunked 2 years ago, but yeah it's so odd the story behind that one in general lol anyways look forward to the next vid!
You have a ton of games to catch up here, Kim.
Not just the RpGs, but great games like Kirby Superstar.
Great top 50. One of my favourite SNES games was Unirally. (Uniracers) in the states. Top 2 player action.
@James Da Costa, I played Unirally/Uniracers as well...I honestly was only marginally impressed with the game.
I still remember demons crest being stacked walls deep at the toy shops when i was a wee lad because nobody ever bought it. If only i had bought the whole damn shelve lol.
You are missing out on the Kirby series. Please play them! I would love to see a series retrospective.
You’ve given me some ideas for my next purchases 👍🏻
To a lot of people in the UK, the SNES might as well have been the first Nintendo home console.
As an American, the lack of knowledge the British have of the NES continues to baffle me. But I must say, the amount of Speccy (and certain C64) classics is even more baffling!
@@madspunky We were very much into home computers during the NES's lifespan. Partly due to a government initiative.
@@FatNorthernBigot I'm jealous. All we got were old Apple ii's with Oregon Trail in school libraries. : (
Nintendo was pretty all much Game Boy in my neck of the woods
Only retards owned an SNES. Library is atrocious. Most people had more sense than to pay more for less.
I played Sim City 2000 back in the days.
It really was great. I even needed to create a start disk so it could run with my 4 MB RAM machine. That was the first time I created one and I felt like a god when it worked. Music and sound only worked when I upgraded to 8 MB though.
mt list:
1. Zelda III
2. Chrono Trigger
3. Super Metroid
4. Final Fantasy 6
5. Super Mario World
Never played Earthbound of Secret of Mana.
Star Fox, Probotector, Mario Kart, SM World, TMNT in time, Donkey Kong, Street Fighter
2:21 Why is it obvious that Mickey Mouse is better suited to Sega?
@@SA77888 I always thought the snes one was better
All 3 SNES Capcom Mickey games are superior to the Genesis Mickey games. The second one was definitely the worst and was released on the Genesis as well.
my top 10
Gemfire
Liberty or Death
Aerobiz
Uncharted Waters
Sim City
Ken Griffey Jr. Presents Major League Baseball
Inindo: Way of the Ninja
Chrono Trigger
Robotrek
Final Fantasy IV
Another great list Kim! I'd love to see you do a list of the top British games of all time!
That would be a very short list.
That would be a cracking list!
Always look forward to these.
An Acorn/BBC top 50 would be cool.
The Lost Vikings games were so fun, my brother and I sank a lot of time into those games, lol.
Super Tennis should be higher up the list. The first game I reach for when the SNES comes out again...
Definitely top 5 for me. An all time great
Great game. But the SNES had so many great titles--I can see why he put it where he did. I’d put it about #20 myself.
I prefer Smash Tennis
That bullocks! The best game on the SNES is Earthbound 100%
Kudo's on SimCity2000, love that game, it's one that you can always fire up when you actually want to kill some time on a game. I even play the original sometimes... one of the few games that you have to take slowly. I remember getting the Playstation version, and leaving it on for days on end just collecting taxes.
huh? no mortal Kombat 2, Super bomberman, Super punch out ? crazy !!!
