Ho Ho Ho YEAH!!

So yeah, for christmas I got a 13" TV for my bedroom at my parents house. However, all my gaming swag is located at my apartment, and the only remaining console I have to hook up to the new TV is a SNES. Unfortunately, I don't have many games.

GAF, I need your help! I'm browsing through the used SNES game section at EBgames, but there's so much to choose from and I forgot how good some of these were. Is Doom Troopers really the fun, bloody mess I remember it to be? Is Mechwarrior decent? HOW ABOUT BULLZ VS BLAZERS B-Ball. KRUNK!!!!!

Anyone have some ideas for a few great games that I could find for cheap on the SNES?

Thanks all, and Merry Christmas!

Cheap? Most games are cheap, only the good games are a little bit pricey.

Um...how about...

*browses IGN list*

Donkey Kong Country?

I really can't offer suggestions besides the obvious popular choices! Eek!

Grab some puzzle games! Kirby! The Super Star Wars trilogy!

 

[MadOdorMachine]

Super Mario All Stars
Contra 3: The Alien Wars
Super Metroid
Castlevania 4
Castlevania: Dracula X
Donkey Kong Country 1, 2 & 3
Megaman X 1, 2 & 3
Axelay
Street Fighter 2
Mortal Kombat 2

It's either get some SNES games or go out and get a PSone and a couple games. But I'm poor and I don't want to do that.

 

[demi]

If you're an RPG fan, the PSOne is the more definite choice! But...retro hardcore kekeke raver for the SNES fan.

Grab a nice large lot off of Ebay. That's what I do.

You can get all of these pretty cheaply: Super Punch-Out!!, Donkey Kong Country 1&2, Mario World, Yoshi's Island, Mario Kart, Castlevania IV, Super Ghouls N Ghosts, pretty Much any Capcom Disney game(Disney's Aladdin, Magical Quest, Goof Troop, Maui Mallard), Pilotwings, F-Zero, Breath of Fire 1, Zelda 3, Warner Bros Konami Games(Batman Returns, Animaniacs, Tiny Toons), Mega Man X, Actraiser, Contra 3, Aero the Acrobat, Battletoads in Battlemaniacs, The Lost Vikins, Zombies Ate My Neighbors, Bubsy, Super R-Type, Gradius III, Tetris Attack, Star Fox, TMNT 4, Street Fighter II Turbo, Final Fight, Killer Instinct, Super Smash TV, Motal Kombat 2, SimCity, Super Tennis, NBA Jam, any Ken Griffey Jr. Baseball game, The Star Wars games, Top Gear 3000, Earthworm Jim 1&2, UN Squadron, Demon's Crest, Sparkster, Super Adventure Island, Axelay, Captian Commando, Sonic BlastMan, Darius Twin, Super Soccer, Super Double Dragon, Illusion of Gaia and any Tecmo Football game.

I also recommend these, but they'll cost ya: Any square RPG except FF: Mystic Quest, Earthbound, Ninja Gaiden Trilogy, Aerobiz or Aerobiz Supersonic, R-Type III, Space Megaforce, Kirby's Superstar, Kirby III, Super Mario RPG, Donkey Kong Country III, Mega Man X2, X3, or 7, EVO, Lufia and Lufia 2, Breath of Fire 2, Harvest Moon, Pocky and Rocky 1 or 2, Aero the Acrobat 2, Rock & Roll Racing, Sunset Riders, Tetris and Dr. Mario, Super Bomberman 1 or 2(Perferably 2), and Uncharted Waters: New Horizons.

If you can find a lot with a lot of those listed games for a good price, you shouldn't go wrong.

Super Metroid is the single greatest gaming value available.

Contra III
Axelay
Space Megaforce
SF2 - dur!
Rendering Ranger - Mind boggling SNES coding.

Oh, and pick up Shadowrun, Earthbound, Actraiser, FFIII, and A Link To The Past.

You'd be playing my childhood.

 

[Oh! My Car!]

Do not miss Zombies Ate My Neighbors, fantastic fun for one or two players.

 

[deadfish]

ah super soccer, i loved it how you could get into that one position on the field and score every time. Great game.

Honestly all you need is super metroid, zelda:LTTP, mario allstars and any other games that are nostalgic to you.

This person speaks the truth.

The same can be said for Pocky + Rocky, also.
