    Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest.
    I play that game every year. Easily one of my all-time favorites. The music.. the artistic style.. the fluid gameplay design. It's just a perfect game through-and-through.

      @@XboxNinjaGamer360 Almost any SNES game that's worth having is $40 - $100. It's ridiculous. I recommend if you don't already have one, get the SNES Classic console and mod it...or don't...It has an awesome collection of games already preloaded, but you can add every game you ever wanted on it. That's what I did, and I love it. It feels just like playing the real thing except you don't have to mess with the carts. It's not a good substitute for physical collectors, but if you just want to play the games then it's almost perfect. The emulation is only off by a few milliseconds, so it's almost impossible to notice unless you're doing a side by side comparison with an actual cart.

All these years later my favourite xmas was waking up to Mario Allstars,Super Metroid & I'd bought a Link to the past with the tips from my paper round & also a 3rd party turbo pad (£120 in tips in 1993 13yo thought I was a millionaire lol)

      The thing i used to do is go to a stationary platform that will not fall and stand very close to the edge. When done correctly after the fuel gauge hits empty, Diddy does his rage/failure animation, throwing his hat off the cliff and jumping off the cliff after it to stomp on his hat . XD

    I personally need to thank you. I'm from a younger generation (currently 25) and though my first system was a ps2, my favorite system ever as a child was the gba sp. I had burger time, pokemon special pikachu (that one lead to a grudge to this day against my brother for saving over my game), pokemon saphire, Mario kart, amongst many others. Unfortunately that system broke long ago and many games went to salvation army. Fast forward to a few years ago and I get the urge to play those games I enjoyed as a child and looked at your start collecting guide to see what else was out there. That was my introduction to your channel and I've been a fan ever since.
    Older systems always intrigued me, to see were many systems started, many great systems that lost the race, and the early stages of the icons of today. You've given me many many great titles to look into for starting a new collection or adding to an old one. You've opened many doors to systems I missed as a child. One of my favorite systems I "missed out on" has been the snes. I love chrono trigger, kirby, and Mario kart. It's always a blast to break out mk3 or super bomber man at parties. Plus many more titles I undoubtedly would have missed had you not introduced them to me. So thank you for your advice on things to look out for, mistakes I could make, hidden gems I should hunt, and rarities I should keep on eye or for.

    I first started playing the snes when I was 4 and half years old. My mom would take me over to my grandmas thru the week while she had to work. My Uncle had the snes I can remember the day he came in with it brand new. I would show up early in the mourning's and I would play Donkey Kong, Super Mario world 1 and Super Mario World 2 Yoshi's Island. This was back in 1994 or 1995.. Lol I can remember He would get upset because I could beat the games being that young and he had such a hard time with them. I finally got my own snes around 98 I got the smaller version and ever since have been collecting when I can. I have around 75 of the very best games from all 3 Donkey Kongs, Contra 3, Super Castlvaina, Super metroid, All the Super Mario's and All stars, Turtles in time,Total Carnage, Zombies ate my Neighbors, Actriser 1 and 2. Booger man. Etc.. Man recently I beat Super Mario World 2 because it had been years took me about 6 hours I had a blast with the memories. Ironically, I got a call the next mourning from my Mom that my Uncle had died the previous night of a massive heart attack at the age of 59. I've been devastated over the past week. Tonight I played and beaten Super Mario World in his memory. Can't believe he's gone ill hold on to those memories and I'm thankful that he brought the Snes into my life. The Snes will never die it's in the top 3 consoles for me of all time. Thanks for such a cool video it brings it all back... I'll be a retro gamer until Game Over.. Rip Uncle Dennis 😞

    The PC Engine is the greatest console for shooters, by far.

    The Legend of the Mystical Ninja is an amazing game. I remember playing it so much with a friend of mine. The hidden mini-games and the town exploration is basically proto-GTA. It's an incredible game with an incredible co-op experience, too. That game is incredibly underrated!

    14:07 - World 1-4 Coin Drop is my favorite moment from the 16bit era. It brought me endless joy doing that as a young kid, just made me feel so cool.

    FYI: There was a version of Super Mario All-stars that also included SMW. Originally it was a not-for-resale version that was given as a promotion with a SNES system bundle. But demand quickly outstripped supply, and Nintendo began to issue "vouchers" that you would mail them in and they would ship you retail copies of both carts.

    Can't believe you mentioned Rock N Roll racing!! No one knows about it, we used to rip that game to shreds back in the day

    Some of the games I always come back to are; Final Fight 2, F-zero, Super Double Dragon, TMNT turtles in time, Aero Fighters, Super Smash Tv, Space Megaforce, Tecmo Superbowl and Iron Commando. Notice most of the games on my list are 2 player co-op. I enjoy playing with another person when I can. It makes it that much more fun. Great video!!

    I was lucky enough to buy the legend of the mystical ninja from a second hand store as a kid. I was soooo happy with the purchase.

    I saw that in 0:16 you put in Plock. That was one of the 2 games I have ever played on a snes. ( the other one was super castlevania 4 ) Its really cool to see that someone else played this hidden gem.

    Even if you didn't grow up with a SNES I don't understand how someone couldn't like it. Its library is full of some of the best games of all time from some of the best series' of all time. Ian from the CUPodcast is one of the most outspoken UA-camrs who just doesn't like the SNES. I mean, that's his prerogative, but I feel like he's trying a bit too hard to be contrary to popular opinion. He just strikes me as the type of guy who will go out of his way to not like something that the vast majority of people like, or the other way around.

    Hey MJR, nice list!! I remember how I really liked Mystical Ninja back in the day! Someday I will play this game again! I’m also a big fan of 3D isometric games like Biker Mice and Rock and Roll Racing, which I have played so much with my brothers...nice memories.
