That´s one heck of a hard question for me.There were so many great 3rd party games for the system, I can´t decide.

Props to OP for compiling a list of pretty much the essential third party games for SNES...
I have to go with Chrono Trigger...
Final Fantasy VI and ActRaiser come in second and third respectively...
Secret of Mana might actually be tied with ActRaiser...



Have a nice day...

Why is ActRaiser on the list, but not Soul Blazer or Illusion of Time? They're from the same dev team and much better games. Then of course, there is Terranigma, which would have been my vote.

I simply went with the ones that seemed to pop up the most on "best SNES games of all time" lists.

I didn't even include my own personal pick in the poll.

I did it. Mental choice. I picked SF2. Could have gone in 30 different directions though. lol.

Soul Blazer! Thank you! Was trying to remember the name when this thread popped up. I loved that game. Still have memories of playing it the transcend the experience of the game itself, but were of course, in large part made by the game. Good times. :)
