I've been trying to stick solid with current releases, but this was too good to resist. The Super Nintendo was my first ever console and being able to have a system like that handy with the controllers, the emu settings, packaging the works is too good to resist.
I'm sure everyone has their preferences but Nintendo have done a fairly good job with their game selection. It isn't necessarily the best 20 games on the system, but there's plenty of variety and a good mixture of single and multiplayer games. There's a few games where I probably would have gone with another option, but I follow Nintendo's reasoning.
I would have preferred DKC2 > 1, but the original sold a lot more and made a bigger impression at that time. Final Fantasy III has received several re-releases, while Chrono Trigger has notoriously been difficult to come by in certain parts of the western world. Also, I don't know why we got short changed on Street Fighter II. Japan gets the most complete version, while we have to settle for the second revision? Speaking of, I'm jealous they received Tetris Attack. I guess the west got Dream Course which is a fair trade, but I'm a sucker for Panel de Pon.
Still, I can't disagree with most of the selections. All the best Nintendo staples, quality Capcom, Konami and Squaresoft entries and a few Nintendo deep-cuts to round the system out. I'm especially happy to see Yoshi's Island on there. In recent times they've only released the GBA version which isn't quite as good as the original.
