WARNING: THE FOLLOWING POST IS A WALL OF TXT
(But trust me, if you've never played a SNES than this will be worth the trouble to read.
)
My list begins HERE:
Donkey Kong Country- Platformer - The game stars Donkey and Diddy Kong in an adventure to stop the evil King K. Rool! It's certainly a very clever platformer, with lot's of secrets. You'll be spending a LOOOOOOOONG time trying to get a %100 on this. It's also one of the prettiest looking games on the SNES. If you like this one, you may also like it's sequels; DKC2: Diddy's Kong Quest and DKC3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!
Earthbound - RPG - This is one of the few game's on this list that I don't actually own, but that's only because of how expensive it is to get my hand on a cart. This is essentially Mother 2, localised to the United States. And boy, is it an experience. If your an RPG fan or want a good story, than you should try this one out. If you like this, you'll like The Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The Past.
F-Zero - Racing - This is one of those games that are easy to pick up, but hard to master. The game supports a variety of tracks and racers, as well as difficulty levels. I think the best thing is the speed: The vehicles float off of the ground and are blazing fast, so it's never a boring race. If you like this one, you'll also like Super Mario Kart(which I'll talk about a little later.)
Kirby Super Star - Platformer - To me, this game is the perfect embodiment of my childhood, so my view might be a little biased, But this a superb title that I really think anyone who hasn't looked into yet, should. It is the best Kirby game in the series, and revolves around 8 different games within the cartridge. Each Game helps you develop the skills you'll need in future games you'll unlock, while also introducing a new style of gameplay unique to itself, so that the game never feels overly stretched out in length. If you like this game, you'll probably like Super Mario World, too.
The Legend Of Zelda, A Link To The Past - Action/RPG - The fact that Zelda is in the title should be self-explanatory, but if it isn't, don't even bother looking it up. Play it now. If you like this (And I know you will...) Than you'll also like Earthbound. (Yes, I really did just create an endless loop.)
Starfox - Shoot'Em'Up - This is a very unique Shoot'Em'Up, especially for the time it came out. This one is pretty much an embodying of awesome because it's 3-D and still plays like a Shoot'Em'Up should. Oh, and did I mention you fly in SPACE and infiltrate an enemy base!? (Cough*Starwars*Cough) Seriously though, it's a great game. If you like this, you *Might* like MegaMan X.
Super Mario All-Stars - Platformer - This is pretty much a compilation of Mario 1, 2, 3, and the Japanese version of Mario 2 (which the game calls "The Lost Worlds"). I do however recommend this, because, (IMHO) it's prettier, and more convenient.
Super Mario Kart - Racing - The first in what appears to be a never-ending spin-off series, Super Mario Kart is mostly what made those Kart racing games so popular. It features 8 racers spanning 4 cups and 3 difficulty settings. It's not nearly as fast as F-Zero, but it's easily just as fun, if not funner thanks to the idem collection feature throughout the game. and speaking of F-Zero, that's the title you'd probably like if you like this one.
Super Mario RPG: Legend Of The Seven Stars - RPG/Adventure - The other game I'm going to talk about that I don't own, (Mostly because I've been too lazy to just get up and make the money to get it) This game was created by Square and is the predecessor to the popular Paper Mario series. This game is a bit different in that it uses an isometric view rather than a top-down one, but this doesn't hinder the story or gameplay, which is good. It begins with Mario actually nearing the end of his journey. He saves peach - but than, something falls from the sky and destroys Bowser's castle. What is it? Well, you'll have to play to find out. If you like this one, you'll also like The Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The Past.
Super Mario World - Platformer - Also known as Super Mario Bros. 4, this is THE Mario game for the Super Nintendo. Like Donkey Kong Country, this game contains a lot of secrets and levels that will really keep you busy. Heck, it's even got a percent value, driving you to madness until you finally give in and push to reach that seemingly impossible goal. If you like this, you'll also like Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island - Platformer - This one really tries to make itself something new without imposing something against the Mario formula, and it works. In this one, Mario is a Baby which Yoshi takes responsibility for to return him to his home. Too bad that, even at an extremely young age, Bowser is still as much of an annoying, selfish brat as ever. The game uses a type of clock as health - When your hit, Mario falls off and floats around in a bubble, waiting to be freed by you. Every second he's in that bubble, one second is taken from the timer. It starts at 10 and will replenish if the timer gets lower than that, but it can go up to 30. This makes the game interesting, because if you want 100%, you have to go without damage. Like the Man and Ape before it, there's a lot of secrets hidden that need to be found. Another really good platformer.
Oh, and if you like this one you might also like the Donkey Kong Country series!
...And my list ends HERE.
So, I hope that helps someone out there! I know I forgot a few other good ones, but time is of the essence! See ya! B)
EDIT: Prometheus & Lunatic: The fact that you've listed Kirby Super Star (or alternate titles) before I did makes you awesome.
