Shortly after my hype subsided from the announcement of the NES Classic, my immediate thought was, “What if Nintendo makes an SNES Classic?!” That system has a special spot in my heart for being a critical part of my gaming life as a 90s kid. It also doesn’t hurt that the games on this console are some of the greatest of all-time.
In this 10-part series, I’ll highlight three games that I would like to see in a hypothetical SNES Classic.
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4
Part 5
Part 6
Part 7
Part 8
Part 9
Let’s wrap this up with part 10!

Super Mario RPG
Remember how I said I hate JRPGs? Well, this is the one exception. Super Mario RPG is a brilliant spin on the Mario formula with a great story and quality turn-based combat. Can’t get enough of this one!

NBA Jam
A perfect time capsule for gaming at the time, NBA Jam redefined the arcade sports genre with a game that always delivers the heat. Big dunks and flaming three pointers never go out of style.

Super Street Fighter II
Another Street Fighter? Of course! It’s my list, I do what I want. This one is on here because of its new graphics and four new characters. This one gets knocked by many, but I think I’d take this over Turbo any day of the week.
In summary, the games on this list so far are:
Super Mario World
F-Zero
NHL 94
Donkey Kong Country
Super Punch-Out!!
X-Men Mutant Apocalypse
Super Metroid
Street Fighter II Turbo
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
NBA Live 95
Contra 3: The Alien Wars
Super Mario All-Stars
Disney’s Aladdin
Mortal Kombat II
Super Mario Kart
Super Bomberman 2
Tetris Attack
Star Fox
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV: Turtles in Time
Chrono Trigger
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island
Mega Man X
Illusion of Gaia
Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy Kong’s Quest
Tetris & Dr. Mario
Killer Instinct
Super Mario RPG
NBA Jam
Super Street Fighter II
That’s my list! What would be on your SNES Classic?
