Klassic Konsole Karting
Advantages: Well-designed courses, nice modes, racing feel, balance of play Disadvantages: Always in split-screen, lack of options
A review of Super Mario Kart for SNES.
When Super Mario Kart was released in 1993 over in the UK it went on to become a favourite of mine as well as with those whom I frequently played the game with. However, it wasn't until 2005 that I had managed to acquire the game for myself. During that time I had it on and off with this game but never did I lose that feel for Super Mario Kart - and I doubt I will.
What is neat about this racing game is the ... ...with. Then there are the Super Mario World themes running through each of the game's consistently well-designed courses (of which twenty makes for plenty); items as can be found in the Super Mario games to be picked up from question mark boxes during a race; and coins littered around the tracks which are not without their incentives either.
Apart from the likes of the well-known Invincibility Star theme, most of the music composed for Super Mario ...

Classic 1 on 1 Action
Advantages: Loads of fun, easy to play, infinite lifespan Disadvantages: 2 player mode wipes records once console is turned off
...arcades at 20p a shot, Street Fighter 2. After a year of intensive playing my excitement began to build at the promise of the new SF2 Turbo game for Christmas and the chance to play as the four end of game bosses, boxer Balrog, Spainsh Gypsy Vega, Thai Boxer Sagat, and the last boss M.Bison. When I opened the game the next Xmas I was not disappointed. ST2 Turbo is an old school side to side, one on one versus fight game. From back in the day when ... ...a small amount of other moves to compliment the 3 different levels of power for the punches and kicks. Fights consist of 3, 99 second rounds (although if you choose a faster speed the time will count down quicker), with the winner obviously the first to 2 rounds. This game improved from SF2 by adding a few more moves to each character, tweaking each one's strength's and weakness', adding the option to pick 4 different star levels for speed (or up ...

Time Travel at its Best
Advantages: In depth yet straightforward storyline, can be played multiple times Disadvantages: Difficult to obtain a cartridge
Chrono Trigger is a turn-based RPG for the SNES with an incredibly captivating storyline. It has up to seven playable characters: four of which you leave behind and three which you take with you. From then on it is rather easy to switch characters. As a side note, the main character, Chrono, never speaks, and his non-speaking is not noted on within the main game. It also introduced a revolutionary concept called the "New Game+", which let you play ... ...unique endings.
The core to Chrono Trigger's plot is time travel. The game starts out in 1000 AD with three of the main characters: Chrono, Lucca, and Marle. You pick up a robot named Robo in 2300 AD, as well as characters Frog and Magus in 600 AD, and Ayla in 65,000,000 BC. The game also features time travel to 12,000 BC, 2000 AD, and "The End of Time". "The End of Time" serves as sort of a home base. ...

The most lovely FF title
Advantages: Nice FF title, good ability system. Disadvantages: A bit old now, maybe... ah, yes, the language.
...that counts as an official Final Fantasy Mystical Song. It plays very much in the favor of the game.
Final Fantasy V, while not as long as other titles in itself, offers a good numbers of secrets, well-hidden items and even Shoken (Espers) that will keep you going. There are some little quests like piano mastership that are a nice touch, too, and in any case, mastering all of your jobs will take you long enough. In the whole, the game's longevity ...

SNES City With Mario! Super Mario World!
Advantages: Gameplay | Originality | Size of game | Value Disadvantages: Rare to find
...review on the classic game Super Mario World, the classic Mario game on the SNES, one of the biggest Mario games out of them all, considering it is on the SNES, very much worth buying. The game is now also on the Gameboy Advance if you wish to buy it for a bit dearer, but probably be able to actually find the game.
I first played Super Mario World on the SNES; it was the SNES’s best game that was made for it. It is all about Mario and Luigi’s journey ... ...the SNES, that’s pretty impressive. Super Mario World allows you to travel around the world of Mario. You start off on Yoshi Island, where you live, and you have been summoned to stop Bowser once and for all.
There are 2 game modes for this game, there’s the map, and then there’s the Platform mode, where you would go around like in a normal Mario game. The map is very good, and very original. The map allows you to move around the map. You can only ...
