The SNES arrived in Japan in 1990 and came to North America one year later. While the console itself might be getting up there in years, many of its best games feel like they've barely aged at all.

The SNES marked a major step forward for Nintendo. Not only did it have better graphics and sound than the NES, but the SNES was a 16-bit powerhouse that could go head-to-head with the Sega Genesis.

The SNES had no shortage of incredible video games that continue to be hailed as masterpieces even years after.
