@danielmrtns Ай бұрын

A few years ago, I made the mistake of dusting off my Zelda - Link to the Past to give it a go again. I got so hooked that I fell behind on other priorities, work took a hit, etc. It was a bit scary, I had to hide the game away again for the “greater good”.

Good vid but I'd strongly argue for SF2 Turbo rather than SF2. Apart from including the bosses and various gameplay upgrades and additions, its speed is much more reminscient of a modern game. As monumental as it was, the original SF2 feels a bit sluggish by today's standards.

@stefanfriedrich6699 22 күн бұрын

I know Turbo is more popular than Super in the States, but I have to mention it is the superior SF2 version on the SNES. The first thing you will say now is that the speed sucks, but it is adjustable in the main menu. Other than that, more characters, more moves for each characters, more game modes, better graphics and better sound. Besides that, Alpha 2 (or Zero 2) it is crazy that this game even runs on the SNES Hardware.

Great Video! It’d be an IP nightmare to get all the titles in this video in one console, but WOW what a console this would be! I get my retro fix via the SNES Classic. It has 5 of these titles (SMWorld, Zelda:Link, SF2, MegamanX, SMetroid) and then some suitable substitutes for others. Contra3 for ChronoTrigger, Secret of Mana or MarioRPG for ShiningForce. Alas Ghosts&Gouls or DKCountry don’t hold up to StreetsOfRage2 and there’s no true puzzle game like the masterpiece that is Testris , but not a bad fair considering it has a few kart racers, 2 StarFox games, SPunchOut and SCastlevania4.

Great selection of cult classics I could only agree with. Maybe I was only surprised to see Shining Force II in this top ten. It is a great and excellent game of course but I would have personnally replaced it by Final Fantasy VI or by Zombies ate My Neighbors in retro games top ten. Such choices are pretty arguable too though... However, that does not change anything to the fact that your proposed selection here is a top notch one. Proof of concept is, all these games were hacked over and ver multiple times to improve their original experience (if not event, in some attempts to propose "the definitive version of the game"). Well, all of them but Gunstar Heroes, maybe (improving anything to Gunstar Heroes is quite hard - not sure of what exactly could be improved with this one)...

Metal slug and outrun are still very enjoyable

Very much so.

I was not expecting SOR2 in the top spot, but after thinking about it and the fact that this is a list of games that still hold up today....I can't say I disagree.

Shining Force is such an amazing series. I'm still waiting for a full Shining Force 3 discs 1-3 localisation, SEGA; GET ON IT!

How does Toe Jam and Earl not make the list, especially with that thumbnail background?

@WYRG 29 күн бұрын

for me i'd say my top 5 in no particular order are street fighter 2 turbo SNES, mortal kombat SNES, killer instinct SNES, final fight 3 SNES, street of rage 2 SMD,

Boy boy boy u aint get that like until Streets of Rage 2 at the end

@louyork8379 28 күн бұрын

I agree with your list but ya got the order wrong. Chrono Trigger should be at #1 and the rest can be in whatever order after that.

Lets be honest, since it was released Streets of Rage 2 was the solid gold standard for side scrolling beat em ups and was only ever dethroned by Streets of Rage 4!

Not even then.

If we are talking console releases only, I got to say Turtles in Time for me was more enjoyable, but still SoR2 was up there. If we include arcade releases as well, it wasn't even top ten, with things like Alien vs Predator, The Punisher, Cadillacs and Dinosaurs, just to name a few, kicking its butt all day long

Street fighter II, totally , I still play it on Nintendo switch

@patrickvis Ай бұрын

For me: Switch out Gunstar Heroes for Toejam and Earl and the lineup (not the order) is perfect!

Funny, most of the games I played when they came other… The Sega-Games I never played, but most of the SNES-Games. Except Crono Trigger, of which I never heard back in the day. It‘s a good list of solid games. Can‘t argue with that.

They’re all from the 16 bit generation. Well except for Tetris. I guess that’s the only generation that aged well.

Great games =) I was shocked that no donkey kong game or FF6 were there. I hope the young g's try Mario world, chrono trigger, and Zelda a link to the past. There's so many great games they missed.
