I could give you a long list of games, but I won't because there are many RPG's on that list. If you don't like those, you are missing out on the greatest strength of the SNES.

Castlevania IV is one of the best non-RPG games ever made for the system.

Great purchase! SNES is one of the greatest systems ever made with a fantastic library of games and solid reliable hardware. My recommendations:

Action/Adventure:

  • Actraiser
  • Contra III: The Alien Wars
  • The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
  • Mega Man X 1-3
  • Ninja Gaiden Trilogy (Collects Ninja Gaiden 1-3 from the NES)
  • Sunset Riders
  • Super Castlevania IV
  • Super Metroid

Beat-Em Ups:

  • Final Fight 1-3
  • Knights of the Round
  • Marvel Super-Heroes: War of the Gems
  • Maximum Carnage (Spider-Man & Venom)
  • X-Men: Mutant Apocalypse

Fighting Games:

  • Mortal Kombat 2 & Ultimate 3 (#1 is edited, don't bother if you can get a copy of it on another system)
  • Street Fighter Alpha 2
  • Super Street Fighter II

Platformers:

  • Cool Spot
  • Donkey Kong Country 1 & 2
  • Super Mario All-Stars (Collects Super Mario Bros. 1-3 plus the previously only released in Japan Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)
  • Super Mario World

Shoot-Em Ups:

  • Aero Fighters
  • Gradius III
  • R-Type III: Third Lighting
  • Raiden Trad
  • Super R-Type

Other:

  • Sim City (City Building/Management Sim)
  • Star Fox (very early 3D space-ship shooter, if graphics are an issue, you might not like this one, but it is still fun)
  • Super Mario Kart (Kart Racing)
  • Wolfenstein 3-D (First-Person Shooter) (not the best version out there, but it's still fun to play and not available on other mainstream consoles (Jaguar & 3DO, but those aren't exactly mainstream))

EVO (the original Spore)

Super Castlevania IV

Super Tennis

Kirby Super Star

Earthworm Jim

Super Bomberman 2 (best multiplayer on the SNES in my opinion)

ok, thanks guys/girls. i did research on alot of the games you people listed and i wrote down the ones i liked the most. as for fighting games i already have the ones you people listed on my PS1/PS2 so i didnt bother with those...i bought "zombies ate my neighbors", i really wanted "X-men: mutant apocalpse" but they didnt have it so i bought "Marvel: war of the gems" instead, "Final fight 2" ( i wanted the original but they didnt have that also), "Smash TV" (i remember playing this in the arcades and i loved it). "turtles in time", i was going to get "Super Metriod" but it was to expensive, and Super Mario kart..i will be getting more this friday as well if you guys/girls remember any more games let me know so i can check em out to see if i like..thank you my retro gaming friends.
