Glory of Glories: My time with an SNES.

Jason Tandro · Sat Aug 08, 2009 6:01 am

My neighbor and friend let me and my roommates borrow his SNES and all of his games. Here is the line-up in their order of awesomeness (most awesome at the top):

Super Mario All-Stars
Super Mario World
Donkey Kong Country
Super Mario RPG
Illusion of Gaia
Mortal Kombat
Final Fantasy Mystic Quest
Killer Instinct
Super Gameboy (It'd be higher, but I don't have any decent GB games except Link's Awakening and (buried somewhere) a copy of Pokemon Blue).
Page Master (ewww)
Dr. Franken (ewwwwwwww)

The first half of that list should be in every SNES collection.

I used to have a Super Gameboy. It was probably one of the most unnecessary creations ever, but it was strangely entertaining to select the different backgrounds, let it idle, and see the animations that played out.

I agree with Freedan about the first half of the list.

I have:
ActRaiser (complete)
Illusion of time (cartridge only)
Terranigma (cartridge only)
Super Mario World (cartridge only)
Aladdin (cartridge only)

The next game I'll buy will be either Secret of Mana or SkyBlazer.

i dont see how super mario allstars beats super mario world. maybe coz i never owned super mario world.

side note... pokemon blue is the epic wins. find it.

It beats it because a later version of All-Stars included Super Mario World in it.

I have the earliest version with only 1,2,3 and Lost Levels. But still man, I likes it simply because it has the remastered 3. SMB3 was the best Mario Game of all time, bar none.

What? You have Link's Awakening?

Super Game Boy should be at the top of that damn list then.

Link's Awakening > All.

Links Awakening > All Handheld Zelda Games

And Probably

Links Awakening > All Handheld Games

But

Links Awakening !> All Zelda Games

and certainly

Links Awakening !> All SNES Compatible Games

It was good, but not the best.

Probably it's #4 behind OoT, Link to the Past and Zelda II (Zelda II being my personal favorite. Of course I haven't finished Twilight Princess.)

im sorry, but there isnt ever going to be a chance that any handheld game can be better than pokemon gold/silver. EVER.

Frankly, Pokemon Blue is my personal favorite Gameboy Game of all time.

What? Zelda II?

I love Zelda II, but no. It's among the worst Zelda games.

ALttP, OoT, and TP are the only Zelda games that could possibly > LA.

(and subjectively, they don't

)

Super Mario World is ace! It's like the peak of the Bros. games!

game controller, zsnes, and a collection of roms. not quite the same, but it fills the gap when your snes isnt plugged in, or doesnt have the games you wish to play

Sorry, I'm against piracy.

Hm... Maybe I should buy a new PAL SNES?
