What are some good SNES RPG's?

So far, all I have is.. Might & Magic 2, Final Fantasy 3, and JRR Tolkiens The Lord of the Rings Volume 1.

I can't get my hands on Mario RPG, or Legend of Zelda, they're out of the question. Any other good SNES RPG's?

[Exor]

[Hatrix]

I found Mario RPG, probably going to be getting it later today, or tonight though.

Any other good SNES RPG's?

secret of mana is good however it goes for $50ish and isnt out for any other system but with that aside its a good game

[Exor]

chrono trigger, for teh win.

[Penguin]

wurd to all the aforementioned games, unfortunatley I can't think of any others atm

[Charon]

Got to go with that one.
You can't beat Chrono Trigger for sheer replayability XD

However, if you want to try:

• Breath of Fire and BoF2 were both on Snes. I only ever played the GBA remakes but I imagine the originals were good too.
• Soul Blazer - 1st in a series. Review
• Illusion of Gaia - (second in the series) good storyline, great characters, cool (and challenging) bosses, challenging puzzles ... fun gameplay ^^
• 7th Saga - this ones harder, requires thought and strategy. If you can find it, and stick with it, its fun will keep you busy for a long time.
• Ultima (6 I think- twas called 'The False Prophet') - one heck of a lot of freedom, and the ability for non-linear gameplay if you want that in a game. I did
• Ultima: The Black Gate (I assume it was number 7...) - awful. Just.... awful ^^;;

Also, though I've never played these -

• Terranigma (third in the SoulBlazer/ IoG series)
• Secret of Evermore - meant to be a lot like Secret of Mana, only there are only two characters (a boy and his dog). Also meant to be great fun.
• Lufia and Lufia 2:Rise of the Sinstrels - well the series is still going now, there must have been something to the originals ^^
• Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest - meant to be fairly easy

And if you can find it - Ogre Battle: The March of the Black Queen
More strategy than roleplay, but its all there. I love that game ^^


And Chrono Trigger.
Of course, if you can't find it for the SNES and have a PS1 you can probably just play Chrono Trigger on that instead
(Which I know isn't the point ^^)

Thanks, Charon, for the awesome list.

I'm currently kicking ass in Secret of Mana, and Super Mario RPG. I am pretty sure i'm almost done with SMRPG, and probably about halfway done with SoM.

I'll check out the ones you listed, Charon, and see what I can find.

And to Rappy, SoM cost be $15. Great game, too. Thanks for mentioning it. I just don't like the way you have to cast spells. Takes too long when you're trying to defeat a boss as quick as possible.

Chrono Trigger i've been meaning to get my hands on, but I always forget! I'll be sure to get that one some time tomorrow, 'cause I know I can get it. I'll look for the others, too.

Thanks a lot.


Edit- I got Illusion of Gaia, and Secret of Evermore. Gonna play 'em tomorrow whenever I wake up. I'll look for the others tomorrow as well. Again - thanks.

Illusion of time.

[PureMourning]

As Charon listed, the Lufias do rule.

[Gaddy]

New Horizons

I played that game like a mad boy back in the day. I rented it from Blockbuster so many times...

[PureMourning]

Tiko!

Dude, if ya want all da pimp roms for da SNES check this out yo.

NeroLogic.com

I've been searching, gathering, and playing SNES Roms for years, and this is the best site. You cna browse ALL hundreds of games by letter or type, including RPG, which alone has over 100.

Including the fav's such as CT, the Final Fantasy series, Lufias, Breath of Fires, Zelda, ect ect...

It eve has all the badass Japanese ones with translations, such as Bahamut Lagoon, and Star Ocean.

[Hatrix]

Awesome, thanks Yavi.

I played Secret of Evermore and I hate it with a passion... That african jungle setting is just not my type of thing.

NeroLogic.com

*cries with joy*

Thankyou XD

*hugs*

I long lost any actual source of SNES stuff and turned to roms... and since OML and the site I found to replace it went down, I've been stuck in streams of spam, junk and cookie trojans trying to find a new site... NeroLogic one looks to be free of the aformentioned goodies, so I'll be trying that one now ^^

Wheee! Once my revision is done, my SNES binge begins anew XD

[Penguin]

simply put.... awesome
*wipes dust of snes emulators*

[Ryuku]

I love my emulator XD
