Man, that was the golden age for square. FF6, Mario RPG, and Chrono were such good games. I own all of the SNES carts as well as several of the re-releases. People heap praise on FF4 too, but I don't think it's even close. FF6 had a friggin opera.
Sorry you missed out. SNES was a really amazing system. Unlike N64, many of the great games still hold up really well. Mario World, Link to the Past, Super Metroid, and so many others still are fun to play.
FF6 also have one of the best villain, Kefka! Mothereffer drops a flying continent to fuck the world.
