Your favourite games of the 16 bit era

[Midgar Mist]

I like: FF5, Lemmings II: The Tribes, Gem X, Rodland and Superfrog

You can include stuff that wasn't originally released in PAL and NTSC regions hence FF5

I'm very interested to know your personal favourites

Over to you....

Sephex covered a ton of my faves but honestly I think Yoshi's Island is the best game from that generation period

[Slothy]

Can't mention Mega Man X without X2 and X3. I think those might almost manage to top it even.

[Depression Moon]

The Final Fantasys
Yoshi's Island
Earthbound
Kirby Super Star
Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy Kong's Quest

Are my top games of that generation. I've still to play a Genesis game or any of those Amiga, Neo Geo games.

The boyfriend loves Sega Genesis (aka Sega Megadrive). But my nostalgic childhood memories make me partial to the Amiga games I played. I have a SNES but I got one of those for the first time in 2013. I miss being able to play Superfrog....I've really gotta learn how emulators work. I gave up too easily on that one...

[FFNut]

Let's not forget the breath of fire series too. Also Lufia II.

[Midgar Mist]

Meh, found Breath of Fire 3 hard.....I feel i may have told you that before (im starting to repeat myself, its happening...)

[FFNut]

Breath of Fire III was for the PSX, II really was great as it had a lot of FF qualities with it.
