Best Super Famicom Games

[Drewskiwannabrewski]

I'm looking for some obscure SNES games, Japanese-only shit, y'know?

I've found some gems over the years, Gunman's Proof, DoReMi Fantasy, Magical Pop'n, Treasure Hunter G...but i'm looking to expand my library. Any suggestions?

The Parodius games are good, obvious choices.

Tetris Battle Gaiden is a quirky anime take on versus Tetris.

Super Puyo Puyo is a great head-to-head puzzle game (known as Kirby's Avalanche of Dr. Robotnick's Mean Bean Machine in North America).

Super Famicom Wars is Advanced Wars' 16-bit ancestor.

Got over 80 "obscure" SFC impressions there. Some of my favorites not mentioned in this topic yet are Zen Nippon Pro Wrestling Budokan 2:3-4, Godzilla: Kaijuu Daikessen, Clock Tower (translated) and BS Out of Bounds Golf (unreleased). There's also plenty of solid titles like The Firemen, Majyuuou (AKA King of Demons), Hamelin no Violin, and a bunch of competent Bomberman clones like Otoboke Ninja Colosseum and action puzzlers like Sutte Hakkun, Power Soukoban, etc.

Happy hunting.

Majuu Ou (King of Demons) - It's a very great, very Japanese experience. Definitely something that Nintendo would not have let come to US/EU markets.

Here is a youtube video of the translated/patched rom:
