Oh man this is just the thread that I needed. I have been thinking so much about PS3 games to get and how bad PES 2008 glitches and AI are but I know I need to play some old school madden and fifa. And now that someone pointed out that International Superstar Soccer is a good game, which if I'm not mistaken is PES's grandpa, I am definitely going to jump on it and compare it to the Fifa of old.

The SNES is my favorite system, so I'm gonna post a Top 10. I own originals of all these carts (aside from Lost Vikings, Mother 2, and FFIV, of which I own only the GBA versions, which, with the exception of FFIV, are mostly identical anyway). Go me.

1. Street Fighter II - The killer app for the SNES, and still fun today.
2. Seiken Densetsu 2 / Secret of Mana - Also still fun. I've played through the U.S. and Japanese versions around three times each.
3. Star Fox - The best shooter on the SNES. Also has among the best music (along with the Final Fantasy games).
4. Mother 2 / Earthbound - A twist on the traditional turn-based RPG, with a cool world map and neat characters.
5. Final Fantasy IV / II - I chose this because I've still never finished VI (though I'll get around to it one of these days ) and because it's my first RPG (rented it as a kid). I can't wait for the DS port.
6. Street Fighter Zero 2 / Alpha 2 - This is my favorite Street Fighter game, and if it weren't for nostalgia for SFII and the fact that the SNES version of this has annoying loading pauses, this would be #1. Still a good game in spite of loadtimes though.
7. Benkei Gaiden - Suna no Shou - Another great SFC RPG. I like it because of its great graphics and how it uses a Japanese-style fantasy motif rather than a European-style fantasy motif.
8. Umihara Kawase - I actually bought this from an auction site fairly recently. It's hard as hell, but it has the coolest physics engine of any 16-bit sprite-based platformer.
9. The Lost Vikings - Wonderful twist on platformers and puzzlers.
10. Super Mario Collection / All-Stars - Mario! On SNES/SFC! What more must I say?

Honorable mentions - Clock Tower (spooky!), Clay Fighter (awesome, huge character sprites and theme music with lyrics!)
Dishonorable mention - Donkey Kong Country (mediocre platform game + good graphics = huge sales)
