Final Fantasy VI.

Easily the best game on the SNES, and probably the third best game out of the whole Final Fantasy series. Hell, I reckon that it's better than EVERY game on the Mega-Drive, Saturn, Dreamcast, X-Box, 360, Gamecube, N64, Wii and Playstation 2. The only reason it isn't better than all the games on the Playstation is because FF VII and VIII are on there :P

First few I'd go for are:

Cannon Fodder
Shadowrun
Secret Of Mana
Mario Kart
Unirally
Legend Of The Mystical Ninja
Pilotwings
Super Parodius
Pop 'n' Twinbee

Think Unirally's called something else in the US. All those are classics though. Any particular genre ya like?? Could reccomend a few lesser known ones then.

lol I thought the same thing Dreville

Unirally must be what folks in th UK call Uniracers. It's great. It's mentioned in this thread somewhere I think.

I must second Shadowrun and ActRaiser. Those are two of the most unique games on the SNES and they are great collector's prizes too. If you can, try to get them in the box with instructions. I had forgotten all about the SNES version of Shadowrun. I remember that game was what made me realize my Genesis had finally been outdone by Nintendo again. The SNES version was far superior in colors and general graphic clarity.

Never got into Earthbound, thought it overrated! But Shadowrun was a different league, how it got released on a Nintendo console back then is amazing considering how adult it is, and without it I don't think anyone would've made the Deus Ex games which IMO are possibly the best games ever made. Apart from the aformentioned Secret of Mana of course, which I don't think will ever be beaten if you take into account all genres, it truly had everything, and still does.
