Actually, Super Bomberman 3, 4, and 5 all go up to 5 player. The first two are 4 player.

You are correct, I meant to put 5 player since it and Battle Cross are my two most played 5 player games on the system.

No problem. It sucks that the later Super Bomberman games never even came out here after the 2nd one. Even Europe got one of them. Bastards.

(Of course, that's not a problem now, coughcoughclipthetabsforregionfreecoughcough).

I seriously want to get Battle Cross. Looks like insanity in SNES form. I do wish it had support for 6 human players to play (6 players total, but 5 maximum actual humans can play), but 5 is better than nothing.

Honestly, just buy a PC Engine, a 5 player Tap, and 5 controllers. There are so many great 5-player games, including some fantastic co-op games.

Sensible Soccer.

No joke.

Definitely. And this if you can acquire it

This one even allows you to blow each other up....well not really, but you can shoot the other guy out of the racetrack

Toejam an Earl was the first game that came to my mind.

Mothers would say the one where you turn off that blasted machine and go outside.

Shut up, Mom, god!
