Diego's Favorite Games for SNES
A selection of personal favorites of the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. The picks might be boilerplate, but they are mine none the less.
10 Games
Chrono Trigger is a miracle of a game production that hit every note just right. It is very rare to find something of this caliber anywhere else.
Famous for being a complete outcast in its genre and having a rabid fanbase, EarthBound is an undeniable gem in narrative and emotional power.
One of the very highlights of the Metroid franchise, it would redefine 2D exploration games and their narrative forever.
Final Fantasy VI is arguably the crowning moment of 2D Final Fantasy games, and possibly the entire franchise.
DKC2 is possibly the most perfect platformer ever created. It has a sense of rhythm and instinct that blends entirely with its own setting.
In an unique marriage between Nintendo and Squaresoft, Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars became the first of many subsequent games that would also excel in their lighthearted narratives.
A frantic bundle of small quests in a single cart, Kirby Super Star is packed with action, silliness, and many hours of fun.
Even though it is a compilation of remasters of NES games, All-Stars is very polished and gives new air to the platform classics with the integrated save features and shiny new graphics.
A puzzle game that would permanently add a sense of thrill to the genre, especially for multiplayer experiences, Panel de Pon often deserves more recognition.
While on the surface it is merely a console port of a PC game, SImCity is a relaxing and therapeutic experience putting to test your administrative skills.
