Technology has made huge strides in these latest years, especially in terms of memory storage (you can easily fit the entire SNES games library on a single microSD!) and that means there is no more need for big bulky units to sit on top of your SNES just to play some games. While backup solutions have existed in the past (some might remember the Game Doctor series by Bung Enterprises, or the Super Wild Card by Front FarEast), they were clunky and unattractive and to make things worse, they're almost impossible to use nowadays - being reliant on older technologies like floppies, parallel ports or MS-DOS conversion utilities to transfer the games on them. ![]() That has made them quite difficult to obtain if you're not ready to pay insanely high prices on auction websites, keeping them out of the reach of most SNES aficionados. Some games have reached a cult status only in recent years thanks to emulation - titles like EarthBound and Super Mario RPG were played by a relatively small number of gamers at the time of their release and as such not many carts were sold, when compared to other more successful games. The Super Nintendo was home to some of the most iconic games of all times, like Super Mario Kart (which spawned the insanely popular Mario Kart series), StarFox, three episodes of the Final Fantasy series, Super Metroid and plenty of other awesome games. Most will still remember the heated discussions with their schoolmates on which console was the best one - the SNES or the Genesis/Megadrive. The Super Nintendo, one of the most successful consoles in Nintendo's long history as a videogame company, holds a special place in the hearts of many of today's gamers.
