Not sure if I can call this "best" ,but I really like Clock Tower. It is short enough to be picked up anytime I feel like it, and it has a lot of replay value by just aiming to get all the endings. My second favorite is Ihatovo Monogatari but that has no Japanese translation and most people won't get a lot out it if they don't want to play a proto Yume Nikki.

>I think Super Mario World is overrated.
I go back and forth on that. the platforming definitely isn't as tight as well basically every other 2d Mario except the second (USA) one. But then it does seem to be more focused on being an exploration platformer with finding the secrets ( almost all exits) as the primary activity rather then the secondary one layered on top of the tight platforming. Oh just found this great summary: "Where Mario 3 seemed to be an action platformer with some exploration elements, Mario World seemed to be an exploration platformer with some action elements"

But on the other hand 64 and Yoshi's Island could be argued to do the exploration platformer better. Hmmmm....

Probably the best description I've ever heard when comparing the two games. I definitely love the action of SMB3. I often get bored playing SMW, because I find the levels way too slow, especially the underground caverns.

The original Super Mario was built upon action, with exploration second. I think Mario 3 does a better job than World of doing what makes the Mario series so great.

I think that's common among our generation. Assuming you're in my generation, born 1985 here. It's just interesting to note that. I'm proud to own an original cartridge and have the honor of playing it on the system.

I got it for free, too.

>>	Anonymous Sat Mar 22 15:52:23 2014 No.1487970 Objectively, the best one is probably Super Mario All-Stars + World. Five full-length, high quality games (depending on how you feel about Lost Levels) on one cartridge. That's a stellar value.

Yup! I was born in 1986, so you couldn't be more right. I certainly appreciate Final Fantasy a lot more now days, but back when I was younger, Super Mario RPG appealed to me much more. It was just fun! And that's why we play games—to have fun.

I own the game, too. I bought back in 1998. Before owning it, it was a super common rental for me at the game store.
All the years I've played it, I still never got those 100 Super Jumps, though.

I would say Demon's Crest. It looks absolutely incredible, sounds amazing, plays great, has a high level of challenge, lots of content. That game blew me away.

Other notable mentions.

>Super Mario World. Amazes me that this was a launch title since it's one of the best-looking and sounding games on the system. A little easy, but lots of secrets and it set the new standard for Super Mario Bros games by being more exploration-focused rather than arcade-style.
>The Ninja Warriors. Amazing beat 'em up and one of the best single player experiences on the system.

I don't think it packs much quality at all. SMB1 looks and feels weird, SMB2 is alright, SMB3 doesn't look or sound nearly as good as the original NES version, and Super Mario World bores me.

To me, Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World is either a waste of money or memory space on my computer—money and memory that could be used on far better games.

I remember reading Nintendo Power's 100th issue and its countdown for 100 GOAT Nintendo games. For Demon's Crest (#90), they basically wrote about how terribly it sold, how it managed to have negative sales at one point, and what a shame it was that the game never took off because it's really good and wouldn't be out of place in a #8-10 spot on a list.

also it has one of the most enjoyable starting level BGMs I've heard.

Illusion of Gaia.

I'd pick the whole Quintet trilogy of action-RPGs if I could, but IoG is my favorite of the 3. It has just the right balance of free exploration and linear progression, a great soundtrack, and fun combat and growth systems without going too heavy into RPG stat crunching territory.

Plus, you go on a globe-trotting adventure exploring ancient ruins and shit, and discovering mystical native spirits and ancient aliens and all sorts of other weird things. This game felt like a true adventure in every sense of the word.

It even touches on some adult themes, such a beautiful city built on the backbone of slavery, and the societal ills caused by capitalism and rampant corporate greed.

Does the Japanese version keep those names from the beta like chop shop? The Shadowrun SNES and Mega Drive games were so much of a hacking voodoo they had to keep the English text in the Mega Drive as is, without Japanese text anywhere in their version. The SNES one left the English text, too, but they translated it in Japanese, so you get Japanese text shown at the bottom while you read English text

I'm confused. The Genesis Shadowrun was never released outside of North America, so far as I know and both games were American made, with the SNES one getting the translation treatment for the Japanese market (not the other way around). What're you talking about?

You are right, for some reason I thought that the Mega Drive game was released in Japan and had all the English text intact. But the SNES game is not American made. It was made by the developer Beam Software from Australia. There is a beta of their game that kept all the original names before NOA had them censor parts of it. I was asking if the Japanese version used the beta or the one people play here with the text changed, as their version had both English and Japanese text displayed, and the English text can be either from the beta or the final version

Then we wanted another console, can't remember if it was the N64, PS1, or PS2 at that very time, and traded HM in at a local game shop for like $30-40 towards it.
Honestly thought the guy was crazy paying that much for an aged game, nonetheless used. Oh well, it was worth it after playing so much already.

K, I've (me being >>1493219) gone through this thread, and am extremely disappointed to not see Out of this World mentioned.

Out of this World. Out of this Fuckin' World. If you haven't played it, it's the most atmospheric and engrossing and cinematic and memorable side-scrolling adventure ever. No HUD. No life meter. Just survival. Big part of my childhood. Eventually bought a version on PC that displeased me because it had no soundtrack (the console versions had dramatic musical flourishes added here and there). Finally got the SNES copy about five years ago. I treasure it.

There's also Flashback, which is in the same vain, but I've never played it all the way through. I would love to grab a hold of that game.

>>1493387
Anyway, my list, roughly, would be, in no particular order....

Out of This World
Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (I know, I know, but it's a big part of my video game nostalgia for a reason)
Star Fox for sure.
Super Mario RPG
Super Metroid of course

Honorable mention to Earthworm Jim, since this was addicting fun back in the day.

I may be forgetting some. My list is also pretty pedestrian. There's also a lot I have never got to play.

So make me some suggestions, if you would, based on my list. I'm not big on typical sidescrollers or actioners unless they have a winning atmosphere. Not big on traditional RPGs but would be willing to give it a go (turn-based combat and random encounters bore me and piss me off, respectively).

Actraiser, Demon's Crest, and Dragoon have all caught my interest lately.

Out of This World/Another World probably hasn't been mentioned (at least by me) because it was a multi-platform release and the SNES version is pretty terrible.

But it is an amazing piece of work, and only by one guy. By the way, you probably didn't get a soundtrack on the PC version because you either didn't set it up right, or you got it on floppy disk.

How's the SNES version terrible? I guess the graphics had some slowdown, but they were still pretty impressive for the SNES.

No, lately I read that among the various versions, the original iteration had zero music, save for the intro and ending.

Way too easy and there's too much stuff preventing you from getting lost.

Also, the controller configuration wasn't fully thought out. It's just fine with some tweaking, but there was room for improvement, like with fully remappable controls.

ActRaiser 2 was all of the platformer levels, none of the sim/world building. Which pleased some fans and displeased others. Frankly, there was nothing wrong with 2, but I thought helping my little worshippers build their town as an angel in 1 was fun, short enough that it didn't get stale, and made saving the people through the platformer levels feel more... meaningful, I guess.

I agree here. It's consider LttP one of the weakest of the series, it isn't specifically great in any given area. LA had far better puzzles, NES games had better combat, N64 titles had vastly more interesting worlds in general and the Oracles were more solid in general.

It was the worst Zelda up until the series got really gimmicky, doing things like mark objectives on your map (which was easy to find things in, but a bitch to navigate) and allow bottles to give you tons of healing and offensive capabilities (bees!).

Not only that, they did a half-assed job of porting the music in the first place--they didn't even bother changing any of the samples that were originally used in the Japanese version.
Speaking of the JP version... listen to how much better the music originally was before Activision & 2 Unlimited took over:

How in the fuck does Donkey Kong Country and Donkey Country 3 compare to Donkey Kong Country 2!!!? For you people who mentioned DKC1/DKC3, DKC2 is by far one of the greatest SNES games of all time and had one of the best soundtracks in a game still to date. I would go as far as saying it at least deserves the top 5 best games of the 16 bit era.

They're called hipsters, son. They're the kind of person who gets a sense of satisfaction being able to say "You've probably never heard of it."
They dislike things that are popular because being contrary is cool. They like things that aren't popular solely because they aren't popular. It's like they've substituted having a personality with liking things.

Anon you would probably call a hipster here.

To be fair, a lot of things that are popular are awful. But certainly not everything. Usually, if something retains its popularity over many years, like a Squaresoft RPG or the film Caddyshack, then there's something more to it than just some sort of 'mass appeal'.

Hate to break this to you, but 2 was canceled in the US before 3 was released in Japan. The sketch of 3 they show in the promo image is most likely just marketing BS to go with the theme of "future as a never ending battle". Kind of like that "screen shot" of a Famicom FF4 people keep throwing around. There was never any plan for a US release of 3.

You've seemed to miss the point that Anon made.
No one is saying that FFII was planned then scrapped. They're saying FFIII was planned then scrapped. All you've provided is evidence that FFII was planned then scrapped. You've provided no evidence that FFIII was never planned. Anon, however, provided some evidence that FFIII was indeed planned. The article you've provided does not contradict any claims made whatsoever.
Again: Anon claims FFIII was planned for NA release, but scrapped. Anon provided >>1521157 as a form of evidence of this claim.
You claim FFIII was never planned for NA release. You provided http://www.lostlevels.org/200312/200312-ffan2.shtml for some reason even though the article makes exactly zero mention of FFIII at all saying instead that FFII was planned and scrapped.

Now I, who am neither the other Anon nor you (obviously, I'm not you) don't see any evidence at all supporting your claim that FFIII was never planned for NA release. Just because an earlier game in the series was scrapped before the next in the series was even in development doesn't disprove the claim that FFIII was planned for NA release.

Who's right: you or Anon? I don't know. All I know is that all the nonchalant whistling in the world doesn't change the fact that Anon has provided some form of evidence to back a claim while you've really not.

Oh, so you're one of those "if it didn't sell 20 million copies, it's a flop!" morons?

Protip: 400K was good sales in 1990 for a company that was not the juggernaut it is in 2014.

Hell, 400K can be good sales now depending on the budget for the game.

For one, 400 000 units, not 4 000 000 units.

Secondly 400 000 units in the mid-to-late 80s was an pretty big number. It's not astoundingly huge like the sales figures for any Mario game from the era, but a rather large number nonetheless. Would you say that Castlevania performed poorly? Because it sold about as many units as FF did.

Finally, why wouldn't they plan to release FFII or FFIII in the US? Especially FFIII... which, by the way, is the best-selling Square game for the FC/NES era, selling nearly four times more units than the original FF (over 1,5mil, if memory serves). For whatever reason, the games were scrapped. Maybe the NES had already outlived its NA usefulness while the FC was still chugging along, slow-and-steady-like in Japan. I don't know. But it stands to reason that if a game sells as well as that in grolious Nippon, someone would consider selling it to the outside market.
