My ten favourites are 10. Lufia and the Fortress of Doom 9. Breath of Fire 8. Breath of Fire 2 7. Lennus 2: The Apostles of the Seals 6. Robotrek 5. Terranigma 4. Final Fantasy 6 3. Chrono Trigger 2. Super Mario RPG 1. EarthBound
Good list. I had a Genesis as a kid so my knowledge of SNES is limited. I've been bankrolling a list of games to check out. Also, I've been playing RPGs for ~25 years & only recently learned "JRPG" is a term... and I hate it. I know ppl try to define lines about what it is, but video game RPGs were practically, if not literally, invented in Japan. Saying JRPG is like saying "urban hip-hop".
sure dragon quest games has the same gameplay and mechanics but I could say that V is one of the most unique one in the series because of its theme and story, could easily beat anything in the list. one of the best DQ imo
For me my top 5 are these... Super Mario RPG, Arcana (not even mentioned, he's probably not played it) then Final Fantasy 6, Earthbound & Breath of Fire II
Neither ActRaiser is an RPG so I don't think either should be subject to this list but it really doesn't make sense to put ActRaiser II in the "Worst RPG" list for the crime of...being a straight action game. It's like saying salmon are one of the worst birds because they can't fly.
I'm kind of disappointed that Robotrek, which is one of my favorite SNES RPGs and definitely in my top 10, didn't make the cut or at least an honorable mention since the title screen was among those at the beginning of the video. Ogre Battle March of the Black Queen is my favorite console SRPG and another that would definitely be in my SNES top 10.
I'm surprised Ogre Battle was not here.
Agreed

Ehm.... A Link to the Past is no RPG... it has no level system... it is an Action Adventure...
I really enjoy your videos, thanks for continuing your channel. Great work.
Zeldas are not rpgs... Except 2 on nes.
No seiken densetsu 3?
Fer real sd3 is goated

Secret of evermore deserves some love here. Criminally underrated

I will add to the list: terranigma
I would say that the platformers and shooters were better on the NES
WTF Mystic Quest is one of my favourite games on the SNES 🤯
And I thought I WAS a veteran... 🥶
Soul Blazer
Great list. Check terranigma
I think Crono is king, but I'm just biased
That makes two of us
the ps1 is the greatest jrpg game system but i will give snes as 2nd
Hell yeah there could only be one number 1 ff6 seriously there's no better RPG on the console

If Zelda is an rpg then so is GTA, God of war etc
I have theses games but I’ll go and play disgaea on my 3ds 🤣 I’ll get around to my modded snes mini eventually 3 hours into crono trigger
I mean, it's not a bad list... It wont break youtube SNES list, but it is what it is...
