SFC English Friendly Game List

[Frag Mortuus]

Hey guys,

Forgive me if this type of thread has already been created to this extent, but, I would like to start a definitive list of Super Famicom games that English friendly. Meaning they have little to no Japanese in them, they have an English option, or they have so little text in them that the language doesn't matter. Now, I know that this topic has been discussed before on this forum, but I thought if we could create a list that people could add to and sticky it, it could be a great tool for those of us that would like to try some SFC games but don't want to buy a game and not know what is going on.

Now, this list will also contain games that have English Super Nintendo counterparts as well. For example, I know that the Donkey Kong Country (Super Donkey Kong) games in Japan are totally in English, or they are for the most part and that Super Metroid has an English option in it. This is beneficial because you can buy all three DKC games as a lot for about $20 shipped from Japan on the Japanese eBay page.

So what do you all think? Would this type of list be something everyone would like to see happen. Would any of you all find this useful?

There is a pretty aweomse thread for English translated ROMS already on the site (respect to 8bit):

I don't think there has been coverage of Japanese only releases that don't require understanding Japanese though.

I was just thinking how useful such a list would be 10 minutes ago before seeing this thread! Specifically, Japanese-only games that are English-friendly.

Hardcore Gaming 101 has a lot of these covered in their articles, which is very helpful, but it's necessary to check each and every one individually to find them because you can't sort by system.
