Final fantasy 3 should easily be on the top 10. Has held up well even for today’s rpgs.
A few years ago, I made the mistake of dusting off my Zelda - Link to the Past to give it a go again. I got so hooked that I fell behind on other priorities, work took a hit, etc. It was a bit scary, I had to hide the game away again for the “greater good”.

Good vid but I'd strongly argue for SF2 Turbo rather than SF2. Apart from including the bosses and various gameplay upgrades and additions, its speed is much more reminscient of a modern game. As monumental as it was, the original SF2 feels a bit sluggish by today's standards.

I know Turbo is more popular than Super in the States, but I have to mention it is the superior SF2 version on the SNES. The first thing you will say now is that the speed sucks, but it is adjustable in the main menu. Other than that, more characters, more moves for each characters, more game modes, better graphics and better sound. Besides that, Alpha 2 (or Zero 2) it is crazy that this game even runs on the SNES Hardware.

I honestly think most retro games that were considered great back then still hold up today. Some are even better than everything that comes out now. Maybe that’s why everything is being remade nowadays.
People complain about video game prices but all these games released at $50+. I remember buying Street Fighter 2 for the SNES for $70 around 1991. That’s equivalent to around $160 today. Great list and I love all these games

Loved when after you beat the game, then the world flips to the dark world and you have to fight new monsters and the worlds becoming slightly different in areas and going between time to traverse certain parts!...BRILLIANT game.

Good selection! Not sure about your #1 choice, but the rest are good. Probably the first list I have ever seen that carried both Shining Force 2 and Chrono Trigger without having Final Fantasy 3 (or 6, take your pick) as well
These are all good, SF2 isn't even near as good gameplay than these others, but it's a cult game. From PC I would say Half-Life and C&C games to this list. From the SNES U.N. Squadron and FFs

Nice to see Shining Force get some love. Underrated game for sure
Such amazing replay-ability on this list! I encourage a DOS/PC list too! Police/Kings/Space quest, leisure suit Larry…. So many good ones out there, especially from Sierra.
I was not expecting SOR2 in the top spot, but after thinking about it and the fact that this is a list of games that still hold up today....I can't say I disagree.

EarthBound is a really underrated game.
Great selection of cult classics I could only agree with. Maybe I was only surprised to see Shining Force II in this top ten. It is a great and excellent game of course but I would have personnally replaced it by Final Fantasy VI or by Zombies ate My Neighbors in retro games top ten. Such choices are pretty arguable too though... However, that does not change anything to the fact that your proposed selection here is a top notch one. Proof of concept is, all these games were hacked over and ver multiple times to improve their original experience (if not event, in some attempts to propose "the definitive version of the game"). Well, all of them but Gunstar Heroes, maybe (improving anything to Gunstar Heroes is quite hard - not sure of what exactly could be improved with this one)...

Great Video! It’d be an IP nightmare to get all the titles in this video in one console, but WOW what a console this would be! I get my retro fix via the SNES Classic. It has 5 of these titles (SMWorld, Zelda:Link, SF2, MegamanX, SMetroid) and then some suitable substitutes for others. Contra3 for ChronoTrigger, Secret of Mana or MarioRPG for ShiningForce. Alas Ghosts&Gouls or DKCountry don’t hold up to StreetsOfRage2 and there’s no true puzzle game like the masterpiece that is Testris , but not a bad fair considering it has a few kart racers, 2 StarFox games, SPunchOut and SCastlevania4.
