Kinglicious 04/08/24 9:09:26 PM #53:	Super Mario World Donkey Kong Country Super Metroid Chrono Trigger Looks like we're mostly arguing between 6 to 8 games and all are pretty valid. I go with this because SMW is remarkable as a success and to pushing the SNES into homes, DKC was a huge deal and also pushed platformers forward, Super Metroid created an entire new genre of gaming that is named after this game, and finally CT is a case of legacy. It's not a commercial success relative to the console but it's one of the biggest games that stands out from it in every discussion, its soundtrack is still considered one of the best ever, and it is just plain one of the best examples of a near perfect RPG. Basically, it's here due to acclaim. Which technically is what I think puts Super Metroid over SF2. --- The King Wang. Listen up Urinal Cake.

Lopen 04/08/24 10:17:02 PM #76:	A normal console I'd agree I just hold the SNES library in really high esteem. Lot of great stuff there to the point where the obligatory bundle in pick is kinda selling the console short imo. Is it a bad pick? No. But I absolutely don't think it should be considered obligatory I also think Donkey Kong Country basically fits the role SMW does if you're going for play rate and notoriety. Yes it sold less but I feel like it not being a bundle in and releasing 2/3s the way through the SNES life makes its sales more impressive. (And I do not like the DKC games) --- No problem!

Wanglicious 04/08/24 11:25:46 PM #88:	it's funny but DKC vs LttP on this category is one where i just have to side with DKC as the bigger deal. for scope of the SNES it was huge; the visuals and music made a revolutionary push towards the mainstream, it helped keep the SNES alive right as the PS1 was launching, it scared the shit out of Sega and helped continue their series of mistakes. bluntly it was just plain more popular and had become the representative of the SNES, getting viewed as the successor to Mario. i mean, it didn't really play out that way in the long run today but for a console rep i think you've gotta give it the nod over Zelda, even if more people think LttP was a better game. --- "Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel. <cite>Wanglicious posted [p:979814016] in What four ...

I think it's another case of "just because it's the first one doesn't mean it belongs on a Rushmore" MK64 was really the one that codified what the series became Really? its a Top 5 system seller and most of the series blueprints come from it. It also consistently finishes higher than 64 in most top games rankings what did 64 do other than 4 controllers? --- Hi it's VI <cite>Dudunsparce posted [p:979814019] in What four ...

Now SNES, wow, this is tough I'll have to think about this cause it was Street Fighter II: The World Warrior the game that really put the console on top, the first big arcade experience at home, the game everybody wanted. But then there's SMW, DKC, LttP, Super Metroid, which were also pretty big on their own. --- Last finished: Activision Anthology (PS2) (Patches+Unlockables): Barnstorming, Chopper Command, Stampede, Grand Prix, Megamania, Pitfall!, River Raid. <cite>lordjers posted [p:979814079] in What four ...

LeonhartFour 04/08/24 11:32:26 PM #91:	Dudunsparce posted... what did 64 do other than 4 controllers? Basically every game follows MK64's template for races, not SMK, such as three laps being the standard, longer tracks so you can't lap the field like you can in SMK, the properties of items (as well as introducing a few recurring ones, like the fake item box, triple shells, the gold mushroom, and the blue shell). And yes, having 4 players is a huge deal. Not sure what rankings SMK finishes above MK64 in though, but I imagine it's not actual fan rankings. --- http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/080/145/638.png <cite>LeonhartFour posted [p:979814094] in What four ...
