I highly recommend anyone with an interest in games to grab a bunch of ROM packs (including Japanese exclusive games and fan translation hacks) and spend some of your quarantine on the SNES.
I'd like to get them to play A Link to the Past and Chrono Trigger, but I don't think that they're patient enough. Still, beautiful games with great soundtracks.
Exactly! and even more so with the filters in modern emulators. Along with the funky cool music, many SNES games are easily on par in the looks department with most mobile games, so kids won't be turned off by the first impression or anything.
If you have kids sitting bored at home, consider repurpos an extra/older PC or Mac [0] as a pseudo-console + emulator for the SNES (and other platforms).
A few other SNES recommendations from the top of my head:
• EarthBound (aka Mother 2, another popular RPG with fun music. Combat may feel too grindy/frustrating though)
• Super Gussun Oyoyo (Lemmings + Tetris)
• Live A Live (RPG where you play characters from multiple timelines)
• Pop'n TwinBee (shoot-em-up and platformer with very colorful graphics in a pastelly palette)
• Terranigma (RPG spanning multiple eras)
• Treasure of the Rudras (Japan-only RPG with fan translation)
• Bomberman (hilarious couch PvP)
• Pocky & Rocky (cute shoot-em-up with a Japanese folklore theme)
• Yoshi's Island (one of the best platformers)
There were a bunch of other obscure titles with unique gameplay mechanics that I can't recall the names of at the moment. Will have to comb my ROMs folder.
They don't need to remaster or remake anything, just release it as is, and I'm sure it would sell well. I would anyway prefer the original with original graphics and soundtrack to a 3D remake or similar.
(Yes, I know this is quite different than having it on the Switch, but I mentioned it in case you have a DS and wasn't aware.)
