    However, also to add to this I have heard that there are bugs with Assault Suits Valken's translation patch. From what I've heard about the last parts of the game with it, it's still worth it to keep Cybernator around unfortunately. Hey, at least we got it in the west.

    Indeed. In the localization, they removed all portraits and took out a couple of scenes. but the gameplay was untouched. The story was just a bit confusing cuz there was no portraits of whoever was talking. The manual was atrocious too. Thankfully it was still very well received and it even inspired lucasarts into making Metal Warriors that took it's mechanics and added onto it. Metal Warriors have lots of tributes to many Mecha Genres, including Gundam and Votoms.

Even if it was a little basic. There was also a ff mystic quest released for the gameboy. But that was seiken densetsu the first game in the secret of mana series that got a remake on the gba as sword of mana and remade recently again as adventures of mana for current gen systems and android

    It was also a victim of bad timing, as by the end of '94 developers knew the SNES life cycle wasn't long for the world and so the focus was placed on translating and releasing the much more anticipated FFVI. Most of the RPGs on this list had similar issues, as localizing and translating RPG titles took much longer with less chance of success since a lot of the titles that did get a release in the West suffered from poor sales. In fact I think if Mystic Quest hadn't actually been developed specifically for the West in English first to try and combat that trend, I have my doubts we would have received that game either.

    So happy to see Goemon and Ackman getting some love, definitely some of the most fun out there. Rockman & Forte is really fun, but very rigid, but Forte controls like a dream, so I love it. The BS Zelda games were like this holy relic from my childhood, just reading rumors on the internet. Very happy that they are available to play via emulation. Another one worth checking out is Gourmet Sentai Bara Yarou. It has an interesting food mechanic. The gameplay isn't the deepest, but there is a button dedicated to making your character flex. It's worth playing just for that.

Famicom Detective Club II is a thrilling murder mystery story and a real joy to experience. Sailor Moon: Another Story is one of the best RPG's I have ever played not named Earthbound. Clocktower is one of the scariest video game experiences I have ever had - a shame there are not more games like all of these. Other games not on the list I would recommend are The Firemen, where you are two firemen trying to put out a blaze in a skyscraper; Undercover Cops, another great beat 'em up for the system; and The Adventures of Hourai High, a crazy little RPG set at a high school.

    One of my favorite Japan-only releases is _Kawa no Nushi Tsuri 2,_ it's basically a fishing RPG, and the second entry in a long-running series. There's also a fun turn-based tactical airsoft sim called _Ball Bullet Gun._ btw, _Assault Suits Valken_ did see an (albeit edited) Western release as _Cybernator_ and was even featured in Nintendo Power. That game had some amazingly detailed graphics. Also, you forgot to mention that _BS Zelda: AST_ was meant to be played as part of a live real-time event, which added live voiceovers to the game, like a radio drama...there's really nothing else like it! And it'd be amazing if Nintendo finally made a fully-restored version of the game with newly-recorded voiceovers, as part of some upcoming Zelda anniversary. 🤔

    For the amount of effort that had to of gone into this, it is a simple travesty that theres only barely 60k views. This is a fantastic list, and you even listed every game i ever took interest in, which is a hell of a lot more than most lists ive seen out there, and ive even got a few to look forwards too now :3 (You even mention Alcahest and Treasures of Rudras! No one ever talks about those D:) . Though one thing that did make me a little sad is the lack of mention of Treasure of Rudras very unique way of doing the story, that being that each play through affects the game world and what you can find in it while playing the others, meaning if you picked up all of the good loot with the first group, you couldnt pick it up with the next group, assuming they ended up in the same place(which happens alot). And of coarse all of the stories converge into an epic final showdown featuring the entire cast, which is just brilliant. Theres also the extremely unique magic system as well, which is one of very few that ive seen that allowed you to craft your own spells using spell keywords , such as ig being basic fire attack, then ignus being a bigger version that hit everything on the field. but it got super complicated as you learned new keywords. . It really really is an overlooked gem... Much like this video now that i think on it :P

    THGM's pronunciations of Japanese words are absolutely hilarious. Other than that the game descriptions and use of gameplay footage are great Also I think it's worth mentioning that super dimensional fortress: Scrambled Valkyrie is based on a manga/anime called Chou Jikkyou Yusai: Macross which was one of the anime series that was used to make Robotech. It was the first part that had Rick Hunter, Roy Fokker, Minmei etc. last time I looked it up on eBay it was going for a lot

I came across Tales of Phantasia one day by accident and it became one of my FAVORITE games of all time, only to find out it was never actually released in America. Glad to see it on the list!

    @@CurlyheartIf it was a "GoodSet" then it probably did have every game, at least that was originally available to buy in a store. These sets included roms from the USA, U.K. (and some other European countries, depending on the set), and Japan of course. (Other countries around the world mostly only had translated versions of games already produced for developed countries, so the people in the USA that made the GoodSets, didn't seem to care about those). These sets also typically included alpha's, beta's, demo's, unreleased games, bootleg/pirate compilations, test cartridges, one-of-a-kind contest winner cartridge's, homebrew/homemade/hacked/fan translations, etc. Basically any cartridge that the teams could get their hands on, which they would then rip to a computer and make available to the public for free. (I say "typically" because some of the categories I mentioned were roms added in by other pirate teams that weren't necessarily part of the GoodSet).

    Kamen Rider: Kah-men rider (It roughly means masker rider) Shin Megami Tensei: Shee-n Meh-gah-mee Ten-say You pronounced Mazinger mostly correct Gundam: Gun-dahm Sasuke: Sah-suh-kay (Often, the su in this is pronounced so fast it just sounds like an s, so Sah-s-kay would be correct as well) The vowels in Japanese are similar to Spanish, as in they are always pronounced the same: a-ah, e-eh, i-ee, o-oh, u-oo If you come across something weird, like Gouki or Gokou(the correct spelling of Son Goku's name, often also spelled with a line over the u in Goku) you pronounce the u or the o, depending on the word, double-length (Gouki is pronounced Goh-ki, with the o dragged out just slightly longer than a normal o, Gokou is pronounced Goh-koo, with the u syllabel dragged out slightly long than normal). The easiest way I've found to know how to pronounce these is to look at official romanization, as they will only put the character to be pronounced, with a line over it (so Gouki would sometimes appeer as Gōki [it is actually spelled like this in Baki the grappler] or Gokou would appear as Gokū). I've seen this in person in multiple japanese arcade machines. Iterestingly, I've also seen the American way of spelling Son Goku's name in official japanese games while spending time over there, and more recently, in adverts for Dragon Ball Super. However, if you were to pronounce Goku's name like American's spell it, it wouldn't be Goh-koo, but almost sound like you're saying Coke with a G instead of a C.

    As a reader in Superplay in the 90's. I was aware how many games never never made it the PAL region. And that there was a vibrant import scene for not only Super Famicon but also US SNES games. I would argue that the reason Secret of Mana did get a PAL release was because of Superplay giving the game such a high score.

    Top Hat Gaming Man, ok I have a question, I am looking for a obscure snes title that seemed from memory to be japan only. It was in the art style almost exactly as link to the past. The only thing i remember is that it looked like link to the past, but had like jungle/leafy scenery everywhere and it seems like there where dragons and like moving clouds and mist, do you have any idea of what i might be talking about? I saw happyconsolegamer review it in a vid and i have never been able to go back and locate that vid. It seemed like the hair of the characters was similar to like star ocean but the art style resembled strongly link to the past more than anything else

Games like Brawl Brothers, Stone Protecters, Bio Metal, Raiden Trad, Nosferatu, Ghoul Patrol, Operation Logic Bomb, and others.
