Trying to catch up. Tons of great stuff on those consoles.

- Donkey Kong Country: The graphics were absolutely mind-blowing and the gameplay was a blast. Rare really maxed out what the SNES was capable of doing, not to mention the game's epic music score. Everything about that game is a 10/10. It was like nothing else at the time.
- Secret of Mana was pretty good, but it's overrated by its fanboys.
- Some of the Gameboy games like Zelda and Metroid I played and they're good for their console. I was never much of a Gameboy bro so I completely forgot those games existed tbh.
- Super Mario 3 is the best one. I said it.
- NES Zelda is as classic as you get. It was very popular for a reason.
- Super Mario Kart: The racing was okay but battle mode with friends or family was where it was at.
- Sonic games: We didn't have a Sega but our neighbor's son did and I would go over there to play Genesis games. He is not here today but I'm reminded of him every time I see a Sonic game.
- Mortal Kombat: First played that in the arcade, actually, and I also remember the controversy. So lame that Nintendo removed the blood, and more aggravating since I loved playing it in the arcades and didn't have a Sega.
- Super Mario World: Great game but at least to me it's not one I'd go back and play now. Maybe I should I dunno.
- Zelda: A Link to the Past: Of course. Stellar.
- F-Zero: Fun at the time but so-so in the aging department.

I wouldn't expect some here to have an experience with these based on age, or even bother to go back and write about them, but you do. The SNES was the Golden Age for what was then Squaresoft. Their RPGs were hit after hit after hit after hit. It was ridiculous how much you could count on them to come through. It was ****ing glorious. I have some Squaresoft RPGs that I think you might miss, but I want to wait to write about them and also I want to play some of them first to reacquaint myself. I still refuse to call them Enix. If you're gonna nerd, nerd hard.

Lastly, shame on you about Final Fantasy. Shame shame.
