I've got a lot of spare time coming up and an urge to play franchises I never got into.
Recommend me some must-play games from must-try franchises of the NES SNES, Genesis and GBA.
I've played all of Sonic, MegaMan, Mario and Metroid and [pic related] so don't suggest them.
On my to-do list is
Castlevania 1-4 + SotN and Bloodlines
A Link To The Past
Streets of Rage
Secret of Mana
Mother 1-3

>Castlevania 1-4 + SotN and Bloodlines
You REALLY should play Dracula X Rondo of Blood on TG-16 as well.
Rocket Knight Adventures on Genesis, Sparkster on SNES
>>4110879
>Streets of Rage
2 is better than 1.

Seiken Densetsu 3, its sequel, is even better.

Dude play those games first before you ask for suggestions. Personally I don't believe in backlogs, just play whatever whenever you want, but if you genuinely want to complete these games don't keep adding stuff.
