I get why these kinds of videos might be annoying to an snes vet but for a newbie like me just trying to find good games while most people talk about the same game, I found this video really helpful.

Thanks for all these videos! I really enjoy how you just talk about what you like and don't in a relaxed way. This, since the internet is now flooded with reviewers trying too hard to be impartial. Since such a thing is totally impossible, I really appreciate your honesty. Feels like a friend talking about videogames instead of an alienated gamer.

Boy, I love Blackthorne. I was so impressed with how much I liked it. Thanks for mentioning it!

Great list! Especially love the mention of Dragon View. Absolutely one of the best action-RPGs on the system.

I had Zero the Kamikaze Squirrel. That game is pretty hard at times and I’ve only made it to the third level once mainly because I kept getting damaged during the cave level.

Thank you so much for recommending Dragon View. Been having a blast with this game!

I'll never get tired of discovering great games on retro consoles. Keep em coming!

Spanky’s Quest and Zero (and Plok) were my jam as a kid. Glad to see them get some recognition! And I never though I’d be intrigued by an Adventure Island game. Thanks!

Very good list. Thanks for sharing. You have introduced me to so many games I wouldn't have ever played otherwise. This content is great!!

Just found your channel and it's now one of my favorites. Keep it up, man ^_^

I think Robotrek was one of the only games I ever played where you, the player, created the special moves. It really stood out to me for that.

True lies was one of my favorite games growing up. Glad you mentioned it

HOLY SHIT! CHOPLIFTER 3 IS THE VERY FIRST GAME THAT I REMEMBER PLAYING!!! THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME KNOW THE TITLE AGAIN AND FOR THE NOSTALGIA!

I used to have Choplifter III and thought I was the only one appreciating it so much. Thanks for the acknowledgement, good games are good regardless if they're talked about on magazines or not

I played dragon view last night on retroarch. Really fun game, got quite far before saving and going to bed. Will probably pick it back up again tonight. Nice video btw :)

Today I checked out and saw I had Spanky's Quest in my Super Nintendo collection on my Switch; Tried it out! Super fun! Thanks for the recommendation!

True lies is one of my favorite movies might have to check that out! Awesome video bro!

Dragon View foi merecidamente escolhido em ficar na primeira colocação. Ainda possuo o cartucho deste jogo maravilhoso que tive a oportunidade de finalizar. Parabéns pela postagem.

I love the way you reviewed every games in details. Even though i'm not a SNES player myself. But for most of the reviewers, i enjoyed the way you present each of the SNES games. And most of all, i love your opening video sequences 😂. SNES Drunk!

Do you know any manga websites that has every chapter for Area 88? I'm asking, because every time I find a site that has the manga series it only has around 59 chapters (if you find any, I don't mind if it's in Japanese). By the way, the OVA wasn't bad, but I didn't like the way it ended.

I totally agree with this list man! I grew up with half of these games, but you introduced me to some great looking ones also, my aim is to play everything on this list.

The name "Choplifter" made me imagine a game called "Shoplifter" where you'd steal various things from increasingly-difficult stores

All of The Games And there's a 32x version that even improves upon the awesomeness that is Blackthorne by upping the visual fidelity and color blending as well as having slightly improved sound effects, and even an exclusive level! If you like the game already, I totally suggest you check it out! Basically a 32 bit version of an already great game with all the enhancements one would expect from a jump in generation.

excellent video, love watching your stuff. gives me great ideas for new games for the collection

The moment I saw the first person perspective of Dragon View, I immediately paused the video and now must play this game. It looks incredible.

Choplifter was so mainstream on my street that I would never guess it could be considered a hidden gem haha. Awesome list

Great vid will try all of these! Not obscure but Buster Busts Loose is one of my fave SNES games that I never hear anyone mention, Wild and Wacky Sports too.

I'm not a big fan of RPGs, but love Robotrek. That says a lot. Great picks here. Phantom 2040 is an absolute steal at under $12 currently on PriceCharting. Beautiful graphics, great in-game mechanics, big world... just great.

Good list, have to try some of those at some point. Hidden gem what i recommend is Mr.Nutz, it starts as a cute mascot-game, when you progress in the game, it is a little bit freaky, and really challenging in a good way.

UN Squadron is one of my favorites. Pro tip: upgrade to the second jet then upgrade to the last jet. Skip the rest of the jets.

This is a great video, several of these games I've had sitting in a roms folder for 10 years because they sounded stupid (True Lies, Super Adventure Island 2, Zero the Kamikaze Squirrel most notably) . I might have to try them out now! UN Squadron rules though.

Discovering this channel couldn't of come at a better time for me. I recently got back into SNES and Genesis hardcore, I grew up on those systems. I'm definitely going to check out dragon view. Thanks for all you do, it's amazing!

Totally agree with UN Squadron. My dad bought it at a Kmart on a whim in 1992 just because the cover art reminded him of top gun. Years later when I was stationed in England I stumbled upon Area 88, it looked so familiar. No idea it was a UN Squadron film.

SPANKY'S QUEST SPANKY'S QUEST SPANKY'S QUEST! Thank you for giving this great game a mention. I spent a ton of time on this game as a kid.

i had zero the kamikaze squirrel back in the day and loved that game so much. really wish I knew what happened to my cartridge for it

--->>> I am glad to know that I Have played the majority of the games in this list! Great video as always!!

Dragon View looks absolutely amazing for a SNES title, can't believe i never heard of it before. Looks like something i would really enjoy.👍

Wow, I've literally played one of these. Thanks for the tips!

I'm an Aero the Acro-Bat fan! Thanks for mentioning Zero the Kamikaze Squirrel!

I LOVED True Lies as a kid, super satisfying to shoot the baddies in that one. I remember it starts getting really hard near the end, would be cool to replay it now

Soldiers of Fortune, Super Ninja Boy, X-Kaliber 2097 are a few I thought were good but dont get much recognition. Good video btw

Like the lists and I'm glad Brain Lord is getting some love here. Zero: The Kamikaze Squirrel looks sweet...damn my luck for missing that one. My two cents: W.I.L.D.C.A.T.S. (beat 'em up), Firepower 2000 and HyperZone and Total Carnage (vertical shooters), Nosferatu (a little like Prince of Persia), Firestriker (forgot the actual genre except that it was fun as hell), and Earth Defense Force (horizontal shooter).

Thank you and YOU have a great rest of your day too.

THANK YOU for confirming to me that the Twisted Tales of Spike McFang was actually a real game, and not just a childhood hallucination from drinking too much Sunny D. I remember it was awesome, but could never remember what it was called! Def gonna look it up now.

Spike McFang and Dragon View are 2 of thise obscure ganes I always intendes to check out but completely forgot over time. Thanks for the reminder. Didn2t expect to see Phantom 2040 on the list but for Metroidvania fans this is a goos recommendation.

Amazing video and its GREAT seeing you talking about Dragon View/Super Drakkhen again, damn i love this game. (i had the same reaction when you talked about gun hazard in another video)

OMG, I played Choplifter III when I was a kid, and I didn't remember the name of the game until now, thank you!!

Oh dang! Brainlord! I COMPLETELY forgot that game existed, but I definitely loved it when I was kid.

Brain Lord and Twisted Tales of Spike McFang were my childhood along with Sparkster!

Great video! I've been looking for the title of that plane shooter game (UN Squadron) for a long time.

I need to give Dragon View another go. Wasn’t a fan when it first came out; I was expecting a sequel to Drakkhen which, while not the best game, really hooked me for some reason. Also didn’t enjoy Blackthorne but I’d try it again too hearing your praise for it.

your work is always appreciated, keep it coming. did you cover best fan patches for games?

I had totally forgotten about True Lies, but it was mind blowing at the time. Gotta say, it aged extremely well and I want it.

Can definitely agree w/Dragon View! Played through it start to finish, and it's a game worth putting the time in.

Good list man, I love a lot of those games, especially Spike Fang (check out his SFC golf game, and a previous game released only on PC Engine that is actually very fun too!) A lot of these games I bought later in life as an adult, since I could emulate to try them and buy em on the bay or used stores if I liked enough- because you're right...as a kid I overlooked most of these games based on bad marketing/cover/magazine article etc.

Choplifter 3 is one of the most slept upon games ever! All my friends and I in the neighborhood had it in grade school and we spent many hours at all each other’s houses trying to beat it.... and I also still remember playing the original arcade game inside that “cockpit” style cabinet for hours upon hours as an even younger kid....

@KyleKnoblauch

And any of us of a certain age named Kyle definitely remember Blackthorne....

Hey, I actually played most of these as a kid!! Ardy Lightfoot, ahh, truly legendary game.

I played Spanky's Quest... on the Gameboy. And because of system limitations, the balls that Spanky bounced off his head didn't transform into sporting equipment when you popped them, just featureless black spots which I assumed were nuts or something. I don't recall having to collect keys, because I remember it being more like Bubble Bobble, with you clearing each stage when you kill all the enemies. It was pretty good actually, all things considered, but I didn't even know another version of it existed.

Getting back to my Recalbox emulation console and looking for something to play. Thanks for this list, I'll be giving Zero a try (and likely Aero the Acrobat, too!) I've played a bit of Ardy before, I'll have to go back to it. I remember it being pretty fun. I do like a good mascot platformer.

Great to see Choplifter III and especially Phantom 2014 on the list. Those two were among some of my favourite games growing up. Phantom is criminally underrated which is a terrible shame considering how good it is.

choplifter III. Easily one of the most memorable games I ever played

I remember playing a strategy game called Utopia on SNES that could have made this list. The memory of that game haunts me to this day. Probably just a case of nostalgia painting something with rose tinted glasses but one of my first tastes of the strategy genre aside from SimCity and C&C.

Un Squadron!!!!! Love it. Easily in my top 5 favorite video games ever.

One of the best list of this kind I ever see!

I love Robotrek, it’s such a fun game. Sure it’s not perfect, particularly in regards to the translation and occasional cryptic-ness, but it has a lot of great ideas and charm. Definitely one of my top 5 SNES RPGs

Honestly back in 90’s I never seen these games before but hey thank you I see like 3 or 4 of them I feel like I’m like it lot

The Robotrek cover is a play on Robotech, a popular anime with GenX during the 80s. Same font and all. So its not as blah as you may think.

man I almost had UN Squadron growing up, but my dad bought it specifically because he thought it would be a flight sim, not a shmup. he returned it or turned it in for cash to a game store or something, the point is I missed out on playing a classic lol.

Dragon view is a true love game. Lotta good memories with that one.

Totally not kidding about UN Squadron. We had it when I was a kid but I never touched it because it looked like a flight sim and watching my dad play those I thought it would be crazy boring. Really missed out on that, cause I love shmups!

UN Squadron was actually based off a manga, Area 88. There was a stream of sequels and some even on the GBA. Nice list. Super Adventure Island 2 gave me many hours of enjoyment while I was younger.

UN Squadron is pretty well known, but the rest of this list is really good, a lot of games I didn't even know existed (I would have been all over Super Adventure Island 2 & Dragon View). And I thought I knew the SNES library back to front.

Boogerman was a hidden gem lol but great list good sir! Keep up the good work.

While I knew of the vast majority of these gems, I only played Blackthorne, Brainlord, and Dragonview to completion, and I played True Lies and UN Squadron during rentals from Blockbuster. Clearly my love of RPGs, puzzle elements, and games like Out of This World and Flashback were a huge factor in my choices. :) I'll have to try all the platformers someday though. I'm not as fond of that genre as I was in my youth, but these particular games look pretty fun for a playthrough.

Wooo twisted tails was a fav of mine!and all the adventure island games were great. True lies was a suprise. Owned dragon view.

Metal Marines is a SNES hidden gem for me. I played hours and hours of that game as a kid and I've never heard anyone ever talk about it and everytime I bring it up nobody knows what I'm talking about. I thought that game was really fun.

UN Squadron is amazing. And love the music.

Demon's Crest and Spanky's Quest are damn good games that not many people remember. Nice list SNESdrunk. \,,/

Hey great list as always!
