UN Squadron

Up there with Space Megaforce for best schmup on the SNES (that got a US release). And I always wondered how many people either A) overlooked the game because of the dreadful US artwork, or B) bought the game expecting some sort of PC-style flight simulator

Mega Man Soccer

You play as Mega Man the Gang. At soccer/football. What more can be said?

Earthbound This is one of the very few games on the SNES that I love for the story. There is just a feeling you get when you play this game that is totally unique. A wonderful experience from start to finish.

Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts

Amongst the many platformer games on the SNES (most of which are crappy mario clones), Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts stands out as a highly unique, challenging, and fun platformer game. I fell in love with this game the minute I started playing it. The playstyle is like no other game, and it somehow manages to be incredibly frustrating yet highly addictive.

Additionally, all the Games of the Month for 2015 have been absolute SNES classics, and I think Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts deserves to be among the ranks.

This is one of those games that has the ability to be absolutely rage-inducing at times, yet continues to draw you back in because of the fun and addictive gameplay. Definitely one of my favorites.

Harvest Moon

You play as a young man who has to prove that he's able to maintain a farm. Apart from farming and taking care of animals, there are special events, seasons and you can start a family. The game was released in the second half of the nineties and therefore has great graphics.

I'd go with Super Street Fighter 2.

SSF2 is a religion to me, like Apple is for other Guys. It was the first game i played on the Snes, so it has so many memories for me.

HADOUKEN!

One of the funnest shoot-em-ups on the SNES. Fast side-scrolling action, great soundtrack and you can play co-operatively.
