My favorite SNES game and possibly one of my favorite games of all time is Zombie ate my neighbors! How can you not like the game from the title alone? I picked up this game at a gas station many years ago, it cost me ten dollars and this is probably one of the best purchases i have ever made! This game plays like a side to side top down side scroller. you start out with a squirt gun and you have to face zombies. in each level your goal is to resuce as many survivors as possible, once all survivors are rescued or killed you move on to the next level. What made this game so addicting for me was the tension the game made at some spots. Like in one level your battling zombies who look and control like you so every move you made they made, it was very hard seeing where you were exactly. i also enjoyed the power ups and wepons in the game, who knew throwing tomatoes at a zombie could kill them? The game had alot of good humor and a very opening experience that gradually got harder but you never felt to much tension, just enough. If you ever palyed Monster madness, ZAMN plays like a better more sophisticated version of Monster madness. If you own a SNES then i reconmend you going out and digging this game up, i still have my SNES hooked up and i still play the game alomst every week, its that good!

I think I just might have to say Secret of Mana. Final Fantasy III and Chrono Trigger may have been better games, but nothing on the SNES compared to playing a giant RPG with two friends along for the ride. I was also a huge fan of Super Street Fighter II Turbo--I still am--and Donkey Kong Country. Oh, and Tetris Attack. Damn the fact that Nintendo owns the gameplay elements of that game, and I'll never see an XBLA version!

I always really enjoyed Ranma 1/2: Hard Battle, but I think my favorite was probably Turtles In Time. Stone Protectors is also high up on that list.

One of my favorite SNES games was Konami's "The Adventures of Batman and Robin." That game looked slick (just like the animated series) and was just a fun ride. It was down right hard at some points, though.

What... just ONE game?

I guess that honor goes to Final Fantasy II.

It was significant for me because it was the first RPG that I'd ever played, and I can remember many long nights after work in my room with the door closed... trying to advance the story and see what plot twist would come next. The OST is still amazing, even some 18 years later. The SNES version, although it was based on the Easy version of the game in Japan, was perfect for an RPG rookie like I was at the time. In fact, I'll admit here and now that it's the only Final Fantasy game that I've played to completion.

Honorable mentions: ActRaiser, Axelay, Chrono Trigger

FFII is definitely a good choice. And this is slightly off-topic, but I wanted to mention that I love your quote from The Wizard. Such an awesome movie. I still have a crush on Jenny Lewis (now in Rilo Kiley).

I still have a crush on Jenny Lewis (now in Rilo Kiley).

I didn't care too much for her last solo album or the latest Rilo Kiley album, but her first solo effort--Rabbit Furcoat--was my favorite album of 2006. It's crazy that the "he touched my breasts!" girl grew up to be such a cool musical artist.

[Murgatroyd7]

Yeah, no kidding! Heh. And I've got to agree on those albums. The newer stuff has been a bit weak, but they have a fantastic arsenal of songs under their belt. I especially love when what's-his-face sings every now and then. I feel really bad that I can't think of his name at the moment; you know, the guy from Boy Meets World and Salute Your Shorts...and now he has his own band that's pretty good, but I can't remember what that's called either. Ha.

Hmm, my favorite SNES game would have to be Spiderman and Venom: Maximum Carnage. I just loved that beat em up game. It was so much fun.

[FesteringGob]

My all time favorite game for the SNES was Street Fighter II.

[Cann-I-Bus]

Yeah, SFII was awesome. I put many hours into that game.

Super Mario World is my all time favorite game on that console and couldn't get enough of it! That's back when games came shipped with a console standard and not for promotion and if I didn't have any other game I would have been fine with that!

[Murgatroyd7]

Ah, yes, I miss those days. When you bought a Nintendo console, you just knew it was going to come with a Mario game. Sure, it wasn't a long tradition, but it was one they should've kept up. Oh well, at least my GameCube came with SSBM. And the Wii kinda came with a game.
