I'm looking for a good SNES/NES/Genesis game to play while I'm on my way to school. I have nothing else to do on the bus, so might as well waste my time on a good ol' RPG (on my PocketPC *cough* I'm 1337 MorphGear). Well, I've played through the following:
  • Final Fantasy Series
  • Chrono Trigger
  • Mario Series
  • Earthbound
Anyone know a good RPG for NES, SNES or Genesis?

By "Mario Series", do you mean Super Mario RPG? Because it rocks.

I also second (edit: third [smile]) Secret of Mana. Awesome if you can find it anymore.

Not that I don't love Blaster Master, but since when is it an RPG?

Of course! Genesis? Phantasy Star! 2 and 4 for Genesis, skip 3 because only a mother could love it.

EDIT: I'll also back up Secret of Mana and Illusion of Gaia.

[...]but since when is it an RPG?
Well, he does start out with "I'm looking for a good SNES/NES/Genesis game to play[...]". The request for the RPG almost looks like an aside, being all alone at the bottom of his post as it is =-)

NES Games:

Super Mario Bros 1-3
The Legend of Zelda
Zelda II: The Adventure of Link
Metroid
The Adventures of Lolo -13
Dig Dug
Batman
Solstice

And for the SNES, go with the counterparts of the above =-)
