My two favorite games of all time are Final Fantasy 7 and Zelda 1 (NES). Over the years I've gone back and forth on which one I like better. It really was a major blow to have Square leave a Nintendo console. I think Yamauchi took them for granted, and really RPG games in general. I mean Dragon Quest was arguably even more popular than Mario in Japan. There was some serious hubris coming from Nintendo in those years.

This intro, IMO, is still among the best ever in a game:

About a year ago I showed this intro to my daughter who was 9 at the time. She thought it looked really cool. Once it got past the intro, she thought the graphics were really terrible, but the intro looked really cool to her. It wasn't really the graphics in the intro that she liked though. It had more to do with the cinematography. The way the camera started close up on Aerith and then gradually pans away to show the whole city and the FF7 logo. It's still an amazing intro even by today's standards.
