Super Famicom Recommendations?

[Agent X]

I'm curious about Final Fight 2, as it was mentioned twice in this thread (at least to my knowledge). Whats the difference between the SFC and SNES versions? When I looked it up on youtube, it seemed there was an additional female character for the SFC version...

Maki the Kunoichi (minus the hood on her head) IS THE GAME (Final Fight 2) as far as I'm concerned, but outside of that I found Final Fight Tough/Final Fight 3 to be the better of the two games.  I wouldn't be surprised if there were differences between the US version and Japan, but I don't seem to see any.

Just figured I'd give this a friendly bump.

I've been trying to find a bunch of Side Scrolling beat-em ups like Streets of Rage or Final Fight for SFC but havent found anything of interest.

Games that don't take themselves all that seriously (and dont play like crap, haha) like Parodius are welcomed too

[Pikkon]

I would recommend Sengoku Denshou.

[thegreatgonzo]

I can't reccommend Flying Hero enough. Its a shmup that's so fun to play, doesn't take itself seriously, and makes you want to come back for more. Check it out on youtube sometime.

"well "secret of mana" is really seiken densetu 2"
Yeah, I have both of these, the US and Japanese release. I have only heard of the third game, never seen it. I tried to anglicize it, but not sure if an English title equivalent exists.... "Secret of Mana 2" is the only way I have heard it referred to.

Seiken Densetsu 3 shows up on Ebay but at high BIN prices. I asked Alex at Risingstuff.com and they're about to get it CIB for around $30 shipped or so. Regardless of where you buy it, I wouldn't pay more than that for it. People try to rip you off when you want to buy the big name titles, but just b/c it's from Japan and a big name title doesn't make it rare or expensive.

I'm looking into possibly getting some (or all) of the Yu Yu Hakusho games for the SFC.

Can anyone tell me what it's like and what they like about it and why they would recomend that game? I like the anime series but know nothing of the games.

[mog123]

I'm surprised no one mentioned these games:

Energy Breaker(Great graphics and sound, sweet gameplay and growth system, overall it's 6/6)
Bounty Sword (Overall great tactical game with sweet graphics)
Fuurai no Shiren (insanely hard, sequel to toruneko no daibouken)
Tactics Ogre(Sweet game, everybody knows that)
Seima Juuden : Beasts and Blades(Also, a great tactical game, although controls are "unnatural")

Also, any square game rocks ass.

[Rob64]

mog123, are all those Yu Yu Hakusho games?

[mog123]

no, those are regular(well, not really regular, they're awesome) SFC games

[mobiusclimber]

I think a fun side-scrolling brawler for the Sufami is Psycho Dream. It plays more like a shmup tho (like Monster Lair on the TG CD, if you'd played that). You basically have a sword and walk around smacking enemies with it and collecting powerups so that beams of energy shoot out of it.

[FamicomFreak]

You should really try Captain Tsubasa 3. That game kicks ass!!!

[nensondubois]

My ideal games for Super Famicom

Neugier: Umi to Kaze no Koudou
Yoshi no Kuruppon: Oven de Cookie (Yoshi's Cookie is also included)
Hanafuda
New Yatterman
Super Mario Collection
Undake 30: Same Game Mario Version
The Mahjong Touhaiden
Special Tee Shot
Mario no Super Picross
Theme Park
Syvalion
Star Fox
Super Mario Kart

Hey i have a sfam question... Will a super famicom play snes games?

[133MHz]

Technically it does, but you'd have to heavily mod the cartridge slot to make SNES games fit, or remove the top cover every time you want to play a SNES game.

[Nightstar699]

Oh ok, cause i thought that tabs were the only cartridge difference...
