BROS FAVORITE GENESIS OR SNES GAMES

[BLOBERT]

BROS JUST LOOKING FOR NEW STUFF I KNOW ABOUT ALL THE ZELDA MARIO METROID SHIT

RIGHT NOW I AM PLAYING CONTRA 3 ALOT AND SUPER PUNCHOUT

ON THE GENESIS I REPLAY SHADOWRUN STARFLIGHT AND KINGS BOUNTY EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE AND TOEJAM AND EARL OR HERZOG ZWEI HERE AND THERE

 

[Excidium]

I could write a giant list but here are some great and not-so-famous Genesis Mega Drive games:

Altered Beast
Golden Axe games
Motherfucking Shinobi III
Ecco the Dolphin (this game is real fuck up man, never finished it)
Quack Shot

 

[Metro]

Never had an SNES but I did have a Genesis (which was eventually stolen out of my college dorm room!). I only had about a dozen games and I'd be lying if I could remember any of them except Sonic and uh... some boxing game. Oh... Golden Axe 2... maybe...

Uncharted Waters 2?

 

[Flux_Capacitor]

Never had an SNES, but here's some Genesis games:

Buck Rogers: Countdown to Doomsday - if you haven't played the PC version
Might and Magic II - if you haven't played the PC version
Warsong - strategy
Shining in the Darkness - decent JRPG Wizardy-like
Shining Force - strategy/RPG
Out of This World - platformer/adventure
Flashback - platformer/adventure
Beyond Oasis - Zelda-like
Aladdin - platformer
Dungeons and Dragons: Warriors of the Eternal Sun - to my knowledge, the only original D&D game ever made. Not bad, either
Earthworm Jim - platformer
Gunstar Heroes - platformer
Master of Monsters - strategy

 

[SCO]

I guess,
Ecco the Dolphin
and
Super Metroid

 

[waywardOne]

only had ~8 games for my genesis 15 years ago.

shining force 2 in a landslide.

 

[The King of Comedy]

16 MEGs man, that's some serious shit.

 

[Fat Dragon]

Revenge of Shinobi & Shinobi 3

Also, the original Ninja Gaiden games. Hard as motherfuckers, but fun.

 

[Luzur]

all the Snes RPG's.

all JRPG's though.

 

[Spark Mandriller]

R-Type III is a good Snes game. It's like the original one but with better levels/a choice of three forces instead of the boring standard one/less cheap shit because it's not an arcade game that needs to take your money. Cyclone force is great, it's fun as hell making it dance around the screen blocking shots and ramming things. Makes all those other plane games where you just sit in front of guys holding down shoot look like a joke.

 

[made]

lololol fucking consoletards

Mega Man series, Castlevania series, that Another World sequel, Landstalker (iso action adventure with stats rpg)

but really since you won't have time to play all of these, go with Shining Force 1+2

 

[Eyeball]

SNES:
Live A Live - console RPG with a different and interesting combat system, involves controlling seven different characters in different periods of time and settings. Fan translation exists for those who're not fluent in Nipponese.

Shadowrun - better story than Genesis version, less grindy, good atmosphere, makes elves and dwarves non-faggoty.

Clock Tower - survival horror as it should be done. No millions of shotgun shells or hordes of zombies, just a scared little girl running and hiding from a deformed freak with giant garden shears in an abandoned mansion. Fan translation exists.

Earthbound - weird, childish and yet extremely compelling for some reason. One of the best RPGs for the SNES.

Zombies Ate My Neighbours - Fun action game taking the piss on a million campy horror movie cliches - zombies, living blobs of goo, Deep Ones, mummies, giant spiders, evil dolls, hockey-mask wearing lunatics with chainsaws, you name it, it's got it. A fun two-player game too.

 

[~*´¨¯¨`*·~-.¸-AIN'T]

Super Ghouls n' Ghosts. I wasted so much time on that motherfucker and have still never beaten it.

 

[lightbane]

Vectorman 1 and 2 for Genesis.

Metal Max Saga, Treasure of Rudra and Bahamut Lagoon for Snes.

 

[Demnogonis Saastuttaja]

Well if you have a lot of BRO's, there's nothing better than Micro Machines 2 : Turbo Tournament on the Megadrive. Also available on PC but I don't know if it's as good. http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/501/M ... ament.html

For SNES, try Cybernator. I tried to find a good video of it, but these boring people don't skip the cutscenes and instead pass all the enemies. It's a game where you control a giant robot that can shoot in eight directions, has a jetpack/slide booster type thing and a melee attack. Also the terrain takes damage.

Front Mission is a pretty good SNES game if you can stand the tedium of re-equipping 20 mechs every second mission. Bahamut Lagoon is also nice.

Oh and why not try Zero Wing.

 

[Achilles]

Chrono Trigger?

 

[Dr.Faust]

This bad boy right here. You like evolution? You like RPG elements in your platformers? I bet you do, broski. I bet you love that shit.

 

[MetalCraze]

Genesis:

Dune 2
Contra Hard Corps
Mortal Kombat series
TMNT
Earthworm Jim 1 & 2
Sonic series

Back when arcade games were still good and not 3D popamole bullshit

 

[Jaesun]

I always wanted a Genesis back in the day. But I was too poor to afford one.

 

[Merkwürdigliebe]

Play the SNES version, the music is much better.

Soundtrack is awesome.

 

[Turisas]

Streets of Rage
Final Fight
Doom Troopers
Sunset Riders

 

[Kosmonaut]

Thanks for the recomendation. Lot's of good games.

 

[PorkaMorka]

Assuming you're emulating, you should play

Fire Emblem 4 and 5 and Tactics Ogre on SNES

and Langrisser II on Genesis (or Der Langrisser on SNES, but Langrisser II has better difficulty).

(all fan translations)

Also highly recommend Warsong, Shining Force 1 and 2 for Genesis

Good tactical RPGs.
