Super Mario world is the greatest video game ever made.

 

[Cyber]

Favorite genre is RPG, the ones that made the biggest impression:
FF7
Paper Mario 1 & 2
Earthbound
Symphony of the Night
FF6
Super Mario RPG
Mario & Luigi 1 & 3
All the Pokemon games from gen1-4, specifically gen 3-4; HGSS was my favorite which was an improved version of my previous favorite GSC
FF4 has a spot just because I was SOOO close to beating it, gave up on the final boss

Going to add Chrono Trigger to the list now that I've finally beaten it, just need to finish the bonus dungeons. I never got far as a kid for whatever reason, even on this playthough it didn't really pick up until about 1/3 of the way in but when it did it

Still like FF7 more for RPGs but I can see why many think it's better
