Not quite. Faxanadu was a spinoff from Xanadu, which was Dragon Slayer 2. This led way to a title I was going to recommend- Dragon Slayer 4, aka Legacy of the Wizard. (IIRC, the Japanese subtitle was Drasle family, or something like that.) Whereas Soul Blazer (also an excellent game) was the first of a trilogy, Illusion of Gaia and Terranigma being 2 and 3. Mind you, I'm not downtalking any of these titles.
As for other titles I'd recommend (other than Legacy of the Wizard, of course), I'd also say The Guardian Legend, and the Dragon Quest/Warrior games. On a less frequently replayed basis is Zelda 1 and Metroid, but I do those mostly to see how much of the game I still remember...
