Just got my first SNES—what are some must-have games?

-

I recently picked up a Super Nintendo and started my collection with some classics: Super Mario All Stars, Super Mario World, The Legend of Zelda, and various Donkey Kong games. I’m looking for more game recommendations, especially any good RPGs. I’ve already ordered Chrono Trigger, so I’m excited for that. What else should I add to my library?

If you’re into RPGs, definitely grab Final Fantasy VI (known as Final Fantasy III in the U.S.) and Secret of Mana. Both are absolute gems on the system. Super Mario RPG is also a lot of fun, and I think you’ll love the quirky charm of EarthBound too!

How does Super Mario RPG compare to the version on the Switch? I hear it’s the same game, but are there any benefits to playing the original?
