These "Super Star Wars" games were a test of willpower and perseverance, but damn was it enjoyable when I finally beat it. My favorite Star Wars movie was given justice in this great, but challenging game.
There is a cool novelty to have such a crossover fighting game that includes some of Nintendo's most popular franchises. This was also before the era of DLC, where characters were unlocked the old fashioned way, by actually playing the game..
However, I don't have much more to add to this beyond that - the fighting game genre is already not one of my favorites, and that goes double for the platform fighting genre.
Excellent party game though.

1998
Wasted a lot of time playing this game on the SNES. The 30+ minute lunker-angler battles were intense, and a great recipe for destroying your hands.
1992
No continues or passwords made me not inclined to beat it since the other 2 in the series were hard as hell. Good game though.
1996
Great transition into 3D for Mario. My favorite Mario game.
A highly enjoyable co-op RPG, that also happened to be a console MMORPG. What made this game special, is it didn't require to be played online, and instead could be played with local couch co-op.
Multiple classes, and lots of loot, make it an incredibly addictive experience.

1987
The beginning of the legend of the Blue Bomber. A tough platformer that shows its age. But without this game, it wouldn't have given way to its masterpiece sequel.
Ridiculous difficulty... I remember being able to beat the tutorial with Spider-Man, but after that, I could not beat a single level with any character. Frustrating to the max.
Good game with some great music. Game is pretty damn tough though.
Hoping for another game like the classic Tecmo Bowl... what I got was an ass of a football game.
Difficulty is always the first thing that comes to my mind when thinking about these games... but if you can get past that, and are a big OT Star Wars fan, these are still worth a play.
Some great set pieces as you play through the movie. I really enjoyed the vehicle sections, including the last Death Star escape section. Back in the mid-90's, it was truly something incredible to behold . Same goes for the snowspeeder section in the previous game (Mode 7 in all its glory).

It was okay back in the day, but now it is painfully slow. Much better Wheel of Fortune games exist out there nowadays.
In my opinion, this game is a product of its time - I played this game 6-7 years after its initial release on the N64, and even then I couldn't find myself to play it beyond the 2nd dungeon.
Unfortunately, I found this game to be incredibly boring and it couldn't keep my attention. Perhaps, I should give the remastered version on the 3DS a chance since it is so highly touted as being one of the best.

This game just isn't my cup of tea. Barely played it, but have no plans on returning to it, nor any of the Animal Crossing sequels.
Rented from Blockbuster back in the day. Introduced an interesting mechanic with 2 racers manning a single kart, but overall I didn't find it as enjoyable as what I originally experienced on the SNES.
