Rockman and Forte
Super Castlevania IV
Super Metroid
Super Mario Allstars
Actraiser
Kirby Super Star
Kirby's Dream Land 3
Illusion of Gaia
Terranigma
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtlles III: Turtles in Time
Super Street Fighter II: Turbo
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Earthbound
Lufia II: Rise of the Sinistrals
Breath of Fire II
Donkey Kong Country 1 and 2
Final Fantasy IV, V, and VI
Chrono Trigger
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
Front Mission
Tales of Phantasia
Secret of Mana
Seiken Densetsu III

Dragon Quest V: Bride of Heaven and VI: World of Illusion (weird how two of Japan's all-time bestsellers never made it to the US....)

My favorites are probably Mega Man X, Chrono Trigger, Super Metroid, and Tales of Phantasia, but every game on that list is probably worth playing.

Mine: Super Mario Kart, Super Mario RPG, FFIIIus, Secret of Mana, A Link to the Past, Chrono Trigger, and Tetris/Dr. Mario (originally NES games, yes, but SO much better on the SNES)

These are just ones that I actually own or have owned. I haven't done any emulation, yet, so this list is bound to grow sooner or later.

snes was probably the best genre for rpgs, period. it had quality *and* quantity -- and quantity is important. with ps, we saw high quality but sparse quantity, leaving us bored out of our wits in-between good games, and with ps2 we see, quite frankly, neither.

-Donkey Kong Country
-Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest
-Final Fantasy IV
-Final Fantasy VI
-Super Mario World
-Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island
-Harvest Moon
-Star Fox
-Kirby Super Star
-Stunt Race FX
-Chrono Trigger
-EarthBound
-F-Zero

Through emulation:

-Tales of Phantasia
-Fire Emblem 4: Geanology of the Holy War
-Final Fantasy V

...And several others I can't think of at the moment without digging through my games 'n' such. On a grim note, I discovered the other day that the first-player control port on my SNES no longer detects the controller, which is a surprisingly - only not - effective way to cripple the ability to play the thing. Looks like I'm finally gonna have to search for a new system... urgh...
