We've got:
Illusion of Gaia
Super Metroid
Secret of Evermore
Zelda: LttP

Those are some really good SNES games, two of those are among my top favorites. I think Pumpkin would enjoy playing any of these.

I don't have high hopes for Metroid. I'm guessing I'll last about 20 minutes

SUPER METROID IS SO GOOD

Tip #1 for playing Metroid: the spots where little enemies pop up out of the ground continuously? Those aren't just nuisances...they're recharge spots. You can sit there and kill those trivial enemies and wait for them to drop energy/weapon recharge pods. This changed the game forever for me. (It's kind of the action game version of grinding.)

It can be a rather dark game. It has a rather oppressive and isolationist atmosphere, making you truly feel alone on an alien planet. But the gameplay is solid, and the exploration is really good. Just take your time, and don't try to speedrun it.

I just don't think it's my type of game. Like the whole 2D map thing going on I just really don't like those games :shobon:

I have a few SNES games she's going to try eventually. Don't you worry!

We've got:
Illusion of Gaia
Super Metroid
Secret of Evermore
Zelda: LttP

There's some others floating around. I have an old NES and a copy of the first Zelda. I've actually never played it very much myself.

Is it sad that even with my love of LttP I'm far more excited for you to introduce her to Illusion of Gaia? smurfing amazing game that is. The day my copies batter died was a sad day indeed. I know I could change it, I'm just so lazy.

My copy of Super Mario RPG, Secret of Mana, and Zelda: LttP have all been "permanently borrowed" over the years. :sigh:

I'll definitely get LttP again, and she already tried Mario RPG. I wonder if I should get Mana again.

I know I can emulate, but I just like having the games.
