Der Langrisser - A remake of Langrisser 2 which was originally a Genesis game. The SNES version has better graphics. Warsong is the US Localization of the first Langrisser title. A barebones tactical series with unforgivable deaths. If a hero dies in battle then they stay dead for the rest of the game.
Final Fantasy IV - It's a Final Fantasy game. Released in the US as FInal Fantasy 2. Honestly what's the point of having this reproduced?
Final Fantasy V - Another Final Fantasy game. A better choice than IV.
Front Mission - Isometic Strategy game. Think Tactics Ogre but with Mechs.
Live a Live - A traditional RPG that doesn't focus on one storyline. Instead it's made up of mutiple senarios staring different heros and spans multiple time periods and even genres. Similar to Saga Frontier for the PSX but a lot more popular.
Magic Knight Rayearth - Anime themed RPG staring characters with big heads. Unlike the Saturn released this one's a traditional menu based Role Playing Game.
Radical Dreamers - A very well written text adventure. The true sequal to Chrono Trigger and is what Crono Cross was very loosely based upon.
Tales of Phantasia - The first of the Tales series. With means random battle trigger a side scrolling action-based battle. The fan translation is better than what was commercially released for the GBA and the graphics are nicer, although not as nice as the PSX version. There's a lot of hype surrounding this game for it's dialouge. A few references to sex and the female character's breasts, but those scenes are few and far between. It's a fun game but looses momentum as much of the plot revolves around the main characters running from dungeon to dungeon collecting elementals (which unlock new spells).
Treasure of the Rudras - I'd say this is actually one of your best choices. Traditional RPG that switches between the view points of the three main characters, a lot like the begining to Wild Arms. Also features a gimmick-y but fun magic system. You combine letters and parts of words to create unique spells. It's like putting in a radom CD in Monster Rancher to create a monster- same concept. Input random words to create random spells.
Seiken Densetsu 3 - Another great choice. I think this is the best Mana game created. Boasts fantastic replayability as you can play through the game using multiple main characters.
Star Fox 2 - Never played it.
Shin Megami Tensei - I believe this is the SNES remake of the original NES Megami Tensei. Basically a dungeon crawler set in (then) modern Tokoyo. Like the US released Persona game you can fight or negociate with Demons.
Shin Megami Tensei 2 - See above.
Ys IV - It's a YS game, which means action RPG and a red headed hero named Adol.
Now spill the beans, who's making you the repros and for how much? (:

Does he make them or is there somewhere else to score 'em? I'd totally be down for dropping some coin on a repro of Der Langrisser and Tales of Phantasia.

Yea, seems that way. Nothing like doing a little random e-dick waving. Better cross post the thread over to AssemblerGames.

acually Kyuuyaku Megami Tensei is the SNES remake of the original NES Megami Tensei and Megami Tensei 2 on one cart
Shin Megami Tensei and Shin Megami Tensei 2 are there own games in the series

What would be the point of doing that? Unless the seller requested it.
And Soviet... thanks. (:

I definetly would enjoy getting some of these repros eventually, keeping this a "secret" is only gonna hurt the maker's sales...

Definitely go for a Star Fox 2. Make sure it's the Aeon Genesis patched version, and you'll have essentially the finished game in English.

I have bought games on two separate occasions from this seller and have been very pleased. Starfox 2 is awesome. These are all easily emulated on the PC (don't know about Star Ocean... is that one still available?) but there is something inherently superior to playing them on a stock SNES.

Does anyone know if it's possible to do 'repros' of Satellaview games? Do the games actively check to see if the BS-X hardware is present and connected to the SNES? Certain games certainly won't work, especially the episodic content like Zelda: Ancient Stone Tablets, but what about more complete games.
F-Zero 2 on cart would be pretty cool, but will it work?

Radical Dreamers is a Sattellaview game and it's on Chainsaw's list. Course I have no idea if he's shown this list to the seller yet.

Works great. I got him to make one for me... found the ROM online and sent it to him. Pop it in and play F-Zero 2 (more like an F-Zero Expansion Pack). It's not very long but it sure is sweet. I like the GBA sequels but there's something special about the original SNES game and its expansion.
