mmm\'hmm. Memories man. I was the same way. Then it was some weird dedicated quest to be the best Street Fighter 2 player possible.
 If for some reason you never owned a SNES , you missed out on one of the greatest consoles ever. Its that simple.


Super Metriod.. I dug that out lastnight and played it.
Yum

Yeah, I had an SNES for like 6 months. I sold it off because I didn\'t really like it all that much and I kept getting the feeling that I was cheating on my Genesis. I could almost swear it was giving me dirty looks while my back was turned.

Super Nintendo, aka Snes...

This thread is bringing back good old memories... *sigh*

But Cygnus: You\'re not the only one who has done that mistake! I friggin\' traded my Snes for PSX! And it was the best system ever...

I remember the christmas I got my Snes; how I jumped to the ceiling from joy, and shouted:
"Super Mario Nintendo!!!".

I had my Snes for 6 years, but then I sold it ( when it was still possible ), or so to say traded it to PSX. Oh my god how I\'ve been wondering why I did it... nothing that PSX wouldn\'t be a good console ( without it, I wouldn\'t have experienced the wonders of the three newest FF\'s, and so on ), but the Snes had roots on me I never imagined to exist. So it ripped me apart.

I remember playing Super Mario World until my mother told me to go to sleep, but then when I woke up, I started to play it like a madman again. I got it trough, but started to go trough again, and I was such a bit-f*cker that I needed to find EVERY secret. Then I remember my wonderous screams when I found the secret episode...

Oh and how CUTE was Yoshi :)

And games like Starfox still bring tears into my eyes... How wonderful game it was! I\'ve tried to achieve the same experience of joy trough my snes-emulator, but it just doesn\'t feel right when you don\'t have the snes-pad in your hands... *sigh*

And Super Mario Kart... I played it to death. Literally. I think it\'s most-played-game in my history. The playing-hours go far over 100 hours...

I\'ve got a SNES, yes... indeed.

Might I add "doh", for I ain\'t got no games for it. They\'re really hard to come by nowadays... I borrow some good oldies from a friend every now and then and have a blast, but I\'ve no games of my own.

Just a couple of days ago I found a Mario Kart box in one store, jumped for joy and tried to buy the game, just to find out the box was supposed to be thrown in the trashbin 4 years ago.

Dang.

I had an Snes but I stupidly traded it in for a Sega Saturn:(.  I \'ll admit the saturn was a good system has some of the best games but I missed my snes eventually.  But luckily I bought a new one last month along with Secret of Mana, Super Mario World, Super Mario All Stars and of course Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past.  I was just buying a lot fo stuff that week.  I even bought a Neo Geo Pocket Color just for the whole being rare thing.  I even used my super gameboy on Pokemon Gold-Hey don\'t laugh I bought that game to keep me over until I got my PS2 and it\'s actually a rather addicting game.  I think I\'ll go play it right now:)

Ive still got mine. Packed up in a drawer..

Aaron you just brought a tear to my eye :crying: . Mike Tysons punch out was my favourite game. I sold it along with my Nes and games to Purchase Street Fighter 2 Turbo for the Snes.

Dumb Me :mad:
I met him 15 years ago, I was told there was nothing left, no reason, no concious, no understanding and even the most rudamentory sense of life or death, good or evil, right or wrong, I met this 6 year old child with this blang pale emotionless face and, the blackest eyes, the devils eyes, I spent 8 years trying to reach him, and then another 7 trying to keep him locked up because I realised what was living behind that boys eyes was purly and simply evil.

Man, those were the days. Not to long ago when my old PSX died and I didn\'t have anything but my snes and genesis I went and got a bunch of games from a budget bin.  If 2D would have lasted another generationwe could have seen some truely amazing things. Oh well, this is the second generation of 3D, it\'s gonna be like the nes compared to snes and it looks like 3D will be around a while longer so it\'ll get a better chance to mature unlike 2D.  But I can\'t help thinking what if 2D had been around for the PSX generation, if everyone had followed Segas lead in making 2D powerhouses, hmmm.... Oh how I miss you 2D.
Any developers out their please, I love 3D but can\'t 2D and 3D happily co-exist?

Heh, Donkey Kong country was truly a very good game. I remember when I sat on my room, and my father came and brought Donkey Kong Country with him - to all of my surprise! He just had bought it, all of a sudden. Thought it could be very good game. Well, the first thing that amazed us was the graphics. The best we had seen on Snes.

Soon we noticed the game is a classic. I played hours and hours until I finally beat it. Then, I started to play again, to find all secrets etc. etc. I can\'t even count how many times I played it trough ;) - the times when you were little...

What about Flashback, anyone? I owned this game, but it was my father who played it most. I just used to watch, as I found the game very interesting - \'tho quite hard for me. I remember when my father completed the game, and didn\'t want to play the game anymore. Then I started to play it - I used to just quess the passwords to get into later levels :)
