Super Mario Bros on the SNES is absolutely awesome with a Capital A.

Super Mario All Stars? Great compliation and it was the first time The Lost Levels (the REAL Super Mario Bros 2) was released in North America, it's the hardest freaking Mario game ever.

Oh! I didnt nkow there was a REAL one, I had the one that was the lamest, where you pull veggies out of the ground and chuck them at enemies.

This might be one of my favorite threads. I was spoiled rotten and had all the systems, most of the games, the chairs, the damn 'Interactive pack' for SEGA which was basically a Genesis strapped on your back that vibrated, worst idea ever.

I play Super Mario Bros like every day on Wii Virtual Console. Sonic 3 has become a favorite of mine as well.

I'm also a retro gamer and grew up with the Sinclair ZX Spectrum, Commodore 64, Nintendo, AMIGA and Super Nintendo with the occasional Sega Mega Drive on the side.

Your list of SNES games ain't bad, especially not on the top and kudos for mentioning games like Actraiser, Rock 'N Roll Racing and Soul Blazer .. However, you're missing Magical Quest Starring Mickey Mouse (By Capcom, the best Disney game for SNES) and Skyblazer and some of the Star Wars games (f.ex Empire Strikes Back) are more deserving I think than games like Final Fight, Killer Instinct or Pilotwings!

Lists are for nitpicking at, right?

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and Mortal Kombat, great choices. I would have put MK much higher though, considering how successful and wonderful that game was.

Awesome Thread Btw.
