    I remember getting Turok on the N64

    me and my dad both played it a bunch

    but we were both dogshit at it

    I don't think we ever made it to a boss

    My dad completed the first Zelda game before I did.

    The SNES brought too many buttons to the table and he gave up on gaming when that came around.

    Oh man I cannot wait for DKC Returns. DKC is the best SNES game hands down. The other 2 are great as well.

    My Dad, who looks a lot like more Mario, is 56 today.

    I enjoy the Mario games, but man am I ever terrible at them.

    So old. I didn't get a NES right away, but I was still pretty young. We had an Atari or maybe a Commodore before.

    I used to be so excited for the next Nintendo Power issue. We complain about bias now; the whole magazine was written by Nintendo!

    I'm kind of amazed my parents had no real interest in video games. My dad was hooked on Duck Hunt and my mom would play Tetris with us once in a while but that was about it. I used to read issues of Nintendo Power and GamePro cover to cover, poring over every tiny screenshot.

    I remember the Mario and Zelda comics in Nintendo Power. Those were awesome to me back then.

    Awww, fuck yeah. And the metroid one!

    The Zelda one was the best though.

    Donkey Kong Country 2 is the best DKC

    but the best SNES game (and best game of all) is Mega Man X

    i remember years ago at work, i was playing Mega Man X and I kept jumping off the cliff at the end of Armored Armadillo's stage and my boss was like "what the fuck are you doing it's not that hard to get across" and i was like "hold on hold on" and then the sixth time I climbed up and got the Hadouken and he was like "HOLY SHIT WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS HOW'D YOU GET IT"

    it was like 2005 who didn't know about the Mega Man X hadouken i mean seriously

    I was almost ready to agree but then I remembered Super Metroid.

    I think it's a toss up between those two for best SNES game.

    I really don't get why Nintendo won't give the Mother games another chance in the US

    I mean seriously it would take close to zero effort to bring Mother 1+2 to the states

    And with how rabid the fanbase is they'd probably give their translation patch for Mother 3 away for free

    We got a Genesis once they had dropped to a pretty cheap price

    the only games I really played ever were the Sonic games and licensed Disney games like Aladdin and Jungle Book

    Yes this.

    The SNES had so many good games. I wish I hadn't bought into the genesis hype as a little kid. I eventually realized the error of my ways at the very end of that console cycle and saved up for a SNES, but I missed out on so many good games because of it. I still managed to snag the Final Fantasies and Earthbound by buying them from friends or lucking out and finding them on sale but it was too late for things like Super Metroid, Secret of Mana, and Crono Trigger.

    A dude at work was recently giving away a bunch of old games, so I snagged FF2 and 3, Secret of Mana, and Yoshi's Island.

    Someone else grabbed the Chrono Trigger before I got there, curses!

    The best two Mario games still remained Super Mario Bros. 3 for the NES and Super Mario RPG for the SNES.

    Infact, Super Mario RPG is the best game on the SNES period. Anyone that argues that fact is a fascist communist nazi.
