As a brazilian gamer from the 90s, I feel that it's important to give a background fact of why South America loves Top Gear more than other racing games from this generation. In the 90s, Nintendo didn't had an official representative here, so most SNES had to be imported, which in conjunction with all the economic issues of the time, meant videogames were a luxury. But some people figured out they could rent out time for kids to play their videogames, and that turned into a large cultural background that we had large shops with nothing but TVs lined up with a console in each. The reason why people loved Top Gear at that time, is because unlike F-Zero, you could play it with a friend. And that means they could combine their allowance so that instead of each one paying to play for one hour each, they would play together for 2 hours. This kind of rent-a-time arcades are unheard of in north america and europe, because consoles were relatively cheaper, and even poor families were able to pay for them.

The whole continent of South America is very pleased by your recommendations of not only Top Gear and International Superstar Soccer Deluxe, but also Sunset Riders and Metal Warriors, which are very popular around here as well. Excellent video, as always!

Best console ever. This could have been a list of 100 games and you still wouldn't have run out of good ones

I still wish you'd finished your Chrono Trigger playthrough. Watched it at a low point in my life and it made me smile. I love that game. I am totally blind, and one of my childhood memories is of my best friend at the time playing through it and including me as much as he could, by describing things, narrating dialogue, that sort of thing. So to see these games is nice, especially in a low-key setting. Anyway, just wsaying I appreciate what you do.

I can go months, even years without thinking about Chrono Trigger, but then I hear simply a few seconds of that soundtrack, like at the end of this video, and it really transports me. Not to my memories of first playing it, but to its actual world. I listen to other OSTs more, and that may be because it’s simply too much to handle as a casual, background listen. There is something so evocative and emotional about it, like fantasy made real. Such heart and soul to it. Still genuinely so moving. Then I remember the lone sound of that swaying, ticking clock. Not saying anything remotely new here, of course, but god, what a masterpiece.

Here in Argentina during the '90s we did not have access to the consoles or the original cartridges due to their high costs. Most of us had some clone of the Japanese Famicon (renamed "Family Game") and some clone version of the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive (in my case, the "Super Senga"). Same for the cartridges in both cases (clone copies that came without a box and without an instruction manual). Since there were no SNES clones, only those who could afford it (a small minority) were lucky enough to have it. I remember that "the rich kid" in my class (son of a businessman who owned a supermarket chain) was the only one who had SNES and Game Boy. For most of us it was an unknown (and much desired) world. The same thing happened to us with N64. That's why I appreciate these videos, now that I'm older (I'm currently 36) I'm discovering the wonderful world of the SNES, something I couldn't do as a child. Thank you!

Super Metroid left an indescribable impression on me when I played it at like 11 or 12 years old, and it easily still holds up today. The atmosphere, non-linear progression, graphics, that sense of triumph when you discover new upgrades and abilities that allow you to access new parts of the map. That heart breaking moment at the end when you realize the magnitude of your new friend's sacrifice. I'll never forget that sound. I will forever sing its praises. In my opinion it's the greatest game ever made. The SNES really is the greatest console of all time, and I've played them all.

I'll admit that I'm influenced by nostalgic bias here, but I do believe that ActRaiser is another essential Super Nintendo game. A good mix of action and platforming combined with building settlements for your people, all with a soundtrack that's easily in the top ten of SNES OSTs.

Super Mario World is my all time favorite. The music, the pixel quality, the colors, the sound effects, the level designs so on and so forth.

Tetris Attack is an amazing game and one of my favorites. The strategy, levels of difficulty, and soundtrack especially are all immaculate. 10/10

Loved the list. Some extras I would add are Zombies Ate My Neighbors, Actraiser, E.V.O., the other Final Fantasies, Trials of Mana, the first Power Rangers game, and two personal favorites, Saturday Night Slam Masters and Plok.

Great to see King of Dragons. I think this port went over the heads of most back in the day.

I grew up with the SNES and it's still my favorite console of all time. At 41 years old, I am still playing and discovering games that are new to me. But I was lucky enough to grow up with a lot of the games on your list. The only game I would add to the video is Sim City - the SNES port is not only excellent, it is arguably the best version of the original Sim City!

I personally loved the Super Star Wars games. All three give you the feeling of being the different characters and being in the movie.
