I voted for SNES.  Too many great titles, especially the RPGs...Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, Breath of Fire 1 + 2, Robotrek, Zelda, Genghis Khan, etc, etc...

this is a poll about what system has the best RPGs?


That it is not, the examples I pointed out are just my evidence as to the fact that a game can be based off an older game, yet still be better.

I could have said Super Metroid, the argument would not have changed. The same goes for RE4 vs. all other Resident Evils.

i dont think super metroid is that much better than the original.  SM had too much hand holding, with the auto map maker and the limited range of samus.  in the original, you could go pretty much anywhere in the game in the beginning (and be quickly killed, or course).  it was far more open ended.

In my opinion Super Metroid is the best out of the whole series.  I love that game!  Been awhile since I played it, though.  Maybe I should crack open the SNES now.... and maybe change my vote!

I agree with Shaggy.  Super Metroid far outclassed Metroid.

I think I even liked Zillion better than Metroid.

I voted for xbox because it was the one that brought me back to console gaming.

If I had to choose an older console, it would be Genesis because it was the last console I owned (1995) before buying an xbox and Sega was never afraid of 'political correctness' when it came to their games (i.e. Blood BELONGS in Mortal Kombat).

no love for the SMS?  Cry

SMS is one of the systems i have fewer games for, but so many games i love for it, ps1 would be a close second.

SMS ruled because of that snail game that was built into it.

It wasn't built into all SMS systems though.
Wasn't there an Alex Kidd game built into one SMS version?

How do you access the game? I never noticed it was built in. Is there some kind of code you have to do?

If you own an original model SMS without a built in game...        
Turn on your SMS and wait for the instruction screen to appear.  With        
controller 1, press up and hold buttons 1 and 2.        

If you own an original model SMS with a built in game...        
First, hold down the sequence given above.  While holding, turn the machine    
on and wait.

I have 2 different Euro SMSs with Alex Kidd built into it.

But that's advertised as a feature, it's totally different than the hidden easter egg snail game!
