I owned one until about a couple months ago when I finally traded it in. It was gathering dust in the closet for at least...hm... 8 years? I practically stopped playing it (except for a couple of rare offbeat cravings for Street Fighter 2 and Super Mario World) when I got PlayStation 1.
I recently used it for Tales of Phantasia, but I've been thinking of doing a Zelda 3 playthrough for a while. The only reason I haven't is that I always try to get a 0 so for me Zelda 3 is a three hour commitment.

I suggest to everyone the game "Earthbound". It's one of the best RPG ever made. the difficulty level is not too easy if we compare with super mario rpg, bahamut lagoon, breath of fire... so it's pretty hard I must say, and that's how a rpg should be. I can't stop to play at this game right now. Just one little problem to this game : the music is terrebly bad.
Yeah, Bahamut Lagoon (from what I've played) is one of the easier RPGs in existance. Earthbound has a few rough spots, but nothing that can't be overcome rather easily, unless you're like me and have equipped a weapon that hits like 1 out of every 3 attacks <_<
I reserve the right to be entirely wrong.

Heh. I made that mistake too. 'Hmm..this bat has a higher attack...it must be a better weapon! On an unrelated topic, I wonder why I'm missing..'
Then again, the way to beat the last boss is extremely counter-intuitive and you probably won't figure it out without help. But once you know how it's easy to pull off.

Sim City was the best SNES game ever. In what other game can you have a tornado and Godzilla attack your city... AT THE SAME TIME? Before I started playing Zelda: Link to the Past and Super Mario Bros, I was all about the Sim City. I spent hours designing my cities. I played that game so much that I actually received a degree in civil engineering by the age of 8.
Damn... all of this Sim City talk makes me want to find my SNES.
Had one from day of release. 100 games. Ex GF got her hands on it and never saw it again....sniff. Going to get one though. And SMW. Best controller and game ever. Well the game is. not sure about controller. not tried one for years. But it's never been the same on any other.
