I haven’t voted yet but jeez this is difficult to give an honest definitive answer. I like all those series but there are also games in those series I don’t like. shrugs This requires some thought so I’ll get back to you on this Kanto. Good poll question btw.

I had to vote Zelda. Just too much quality games. it was a toss up between that and Mario.

I’d have to go with Metroid, with Zelda coming in a close second.

 

The quality in the Metroid franchise has been very consistent and because there’s been fewer releases overall, the formula seems less stagnant.

 

Also, Super Metroid is single handedly the best game Nintendo has ever released.

Now playing: SNES - Phalanx, R-Type III, Genesis - Bio Hazard Battle, PS3 - Dragon's Crown

Thanks for the feedback everyone.  I picked Zelda and Pokemon. (Big surprise, looking at my username.)  I would say Zelda is my favorite series, but Nintendo has several top notch franchises.  Metroid would have been my pick over Pokemon if I hadn’t recently played Other M.  Pokemon hasn’t come up with really good Pokemon designs since the 3rd generation, but Black/White at least had an excellent plot.  Metroid can redeem itself on the Wii U/3DS, and I hope it does.  It’s too good of a franchise to shy away from because of one hiccup title. 

Currently looking for the following SNES games:

Chrono Trigger

EarthBound

Final Fantasy II (Final Fantasy IV)

Secret of Mana

Illusion of Gaia

Super Castlevania IV

Super Mario RPG

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island

 Zombies Ate My Neighbors

TMNT IV

Contra III

I also could have added solid series like F-Zero, Star Fox, Kirby, Kid Icarus, Pikmin, and others, but it would make it even more difficult than it already is.  I enjoy games from all franchises.

Nintendo’s “B-list” franchises are amongst some of the best in all of gaming, but really can’t hold a candle to the Big 3; Mario, Metroid and Zelda.

 

Super Smash Bros is also an excellent franchise, but doesn’t really count as a SNES game.

Nintendo really has an awesome amount of great franchises. this is why I think the Wii U will also be a success.. you can’t fail with Zelda and Mario.

I know Smash Bros. isn’t an SNES series.  That’s why I posted in General Gaming rather than SNES forum.  Still, it’s interesting to imagine what a SNES Smash Bros. would look like. As for Pokemon, I consider it to be the best handheld-oriented series.  There are few series that have their main titles released on handheld rather than console.

Chrono Trigger

EarthBound

Final Fantasy II (Final Fantasy IV)

Secret of Mana

Super Castlevania IV

Super Mario RPG

I really would love a super smash brothers made into a Super Nintendo game. it would have to be built from the ground up, but I think it would be awesome.

I can envision a 1-on-1 fighter, but I can’t seem to wrap my head around a 4-player SNES Smash Bros.

I wouldn’t have a problem with a 1-on-1 fighter.  The SNES had some quality fighters, so I think it could be pulled off.

Assuming we could use a multi tap, I don’t see why it would be an issue. Super Smash is a side scroller anyhow. Assuming there aren’t dynamic backgrounds, I think it wouldn’t be hard to pull off on the snes hardware if it was a homebrew game built from the ground up.

I wish I knew how to make sprites and knew how to program. That would make it a lot easier to come into fruition instead of pitching it to somebody and hoping they have the drive to do it.

Finally voted & I went for Mario. The Paper Mario games just nudged it for me but it was close, almost went Zelda.
