You've got to play the classics:
Super Mario World
Super Metroid
The Legend of Zelda: A Link To the Past
Kirby Superstar
Donkey Kong Country

And others:
If you like fighting games, Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter 2 are on SNES. They might be better on other consoles, though.
Zombies Ate My Neighbors
F-Zero
Super Star Wars
Battletoads
Megaman X

Just buy weed instead.
>>
>>2875868
As in you've basically never played any SNES games before? If so, probably the usual stuff. SMW + Yoshi's Island + All-Stars, Chrono Trigger, Super Metroid, ALttP, FF6, DKC, etc etc etc
>>
People might try to tell you different, but meth isn't addictive the first time you try it and a lot cheaper than collecting SNES games at this point.
>>
>>2875868
Buy an Everdrive.

Actraiser
Super Metroid
Killer Instinct

also, don't play DKC

Anon is right OP. DKC is literally 16-bit platforming cancer. Don't listen to anyone who tells you otherwise.

Skip it and play DKC2. DKC is really bad and not fun, especially the horrible minecart parts. DKC2 improves it, and theres no story to worry about other then K.rool stole kongs bananas and he got them back.

Just skip it and Play 2. and then never play 3. because its horrible and even worse then 1.

>>2876771
DKC2 is good, but it's pretty tough tbqh. The checkpoints are pretty unforgiving they're set in less than half of the level most of the times. And the animal buddy levels are pure bullshit.

And let's not talk about the special levels that you have to collect the K.Rool coins to access.

I personally found it harder than the NES Castlevania and Mega Man games.
>>
>>2876783
Alright. Will consider.
>>2876786

>>
>>2876792
how much does the series normally run for?
>>
>>2876771

They just aren't good games. Everyone has a huge boner for them for some reason, I could never understand. I didn't like them at the time, and they're even worse now; loose controls, awful visuals, bad music, etc. Miyamoto-san famously said something to the extent of DKC being proof that Americans will buy anything with flashy graphics regardless of gameplay.
>>
>>2876796
About $25 for 1, $35 for 2, and I think $35-50 for 3.
>>
>>2876803
>>2876805
Price is probably the main problem.
>>
>>2876803
DKC is /vr/s dark souls. It's hard, challenging and a casual filter, but they also have nostalgia for it.

Thats all. They're okay games, just way overhyped. Personally I think Tropical freeze was the best DK game we've gotten in ages. and I started with DKjr
>>
>>2876796
>how much does the series normally run for?
I don't know since I use an everdrive, but I wouldn't pay top dollar for any of the DKC games since they're common as dirt. Heck, the first game is the best selling SNES game (that's not packed in with the system), so there's tons of them around.

Also, keep in mind that SNES collecting isn't cheap. Even the common games aren't really that cheap.

>>2876829

>>
>>2876835
Depends. All Stars is Mario, Mario 2 and MArio 3 in one package.

People gripe about the visuals and musics having minor tweaks over the originals, but its a solid collection. Its not needed if you own the originals though.

what about the version with SMW?
>>2876841
What does this have to do with the thread?
>>
>>2876848
I don't personally have it, but I believe it just bundles SMW with the cart. So You get 5 games (including lost levels) as opposed to 3 on the same cart.
>>
>>2876852

>>2876669
Oh man, why are you even here. A lot of /vr/ enjoys collecting. It's odd you feel the need to reply, at all.
>>
>>2876848

The SMW version in All-Stars has Luigi with his own unique sprite as opposed to green Mario on regular SMW.
Other than that it's the same game.
>>
>>2876857
>>2876852

The version of SMW on the All-Stars cart also has a different sprite for Luigi
>>
>>2876584
What is the advantage of an Everdrive vs emulating?
>>
>>2877062
everdrive is 100% accurate. there are no glitches or differences in playing with an everdrive. it's like playing with the original cart

but it's useless if you have a high end machine because there's an emulator called bsnes that's cycle-accurate or something like that. But you need a good computer

That game is ridiculously bad.
Sad that Castlevania III was the peak of the series with Rondo being a close second.
>>
>>2877087
Spelling it wrong isn't a flaw. It's a privilege.
>>
>>2877091
Its fine. Its nowhere near the level of the NES I agree, but OP asked for SNES games, and thats the only half decent Castlevania game on it. Dracula X was horrible
>>
everdrive

>>2877073

I love my SNES, and I didn't know the guy in OP pic was a youtube personality. You, on the other hand, did.
Then again I also love my Genesis, was an idort even in my childhood. Sucks that you only had half a childhood.

who am I trying to fool, you're probably a kid who grew up with 6th gen

>people are now saying CV IV and Dracula X were horrible.

Really, guys? I can understand it if they were not your favorites, but saying they're bad? come on, don't be trolls.

I agree CV III is amazing, and Rondo is pretty good (but if you hate IV for being "easy", then Rondo is even easier).
Dracula X is very similar to CV III in terms of controls and level design, so I'll never get why people who like the NES games hate on SNES Dracula X.
>>
>>2877112
I love CV4. its my favorite classicvania dude.

I dislike DX because tis a shoddy port of Rondo that didnt even keep the story or elements that made rondo great.

>>2877113

That's the thing though, DX is not a Rondo port.
It's closer to the NES games than it is to Rondo. The only thing it borrows from Rondo are the sprites and the story. The whole game is different and only a bunch of the bosses are the same, many others are exclusive to Dracula X, and the Dracula fight is also different.

It even has multiple paths and hidden levels (although just 2 hidden levels, as opposed to the 4 in Rondo) and you can rescue all 4 maidens including Maria, the difference is that she's not playable here, thus no easy modo.
>>
>>2875868
you all forgot about Super Mario Kart, it should be one of your first
Also buy Turtles in Time
if you like the style also get shadowrun
and last but not least: ROCK N' ROLL RACING!!

Good choice. Too many SEGA threads on here nonstop.

He never said that DKC is a bad game or anything like that. He was just misquoted or mistranslated.

This is what Shiggy said in response
>The first point that I want to make is that I actually worked very closely with Rare on the original Donkey Kong Country. And apparently recently some rumour got out that I didn't really like that game? I just want to clarify that that's not the case, because I was very involved in that. And even emailing almost daily with Tim Stamper right up until the end.

Dem shitty games. Battleclash is alright, though you need a Superscope and the sensor. Fuck MK3, anyone who tells you it's not shit is lying to themselves and the world. 6 arms, 5 skulls, 8 legs flying all over the place from one fatality. Mmmmmyep.
