4. Super Metroid

The genius of Super Metroid has always been in exploration and backtracking. You are given enough equipment as interstellar bounty hunter Samus Aram to progress to a point. But then once you discover something new - equipment or a weapons upgrade - it's time to go back over the areas you've traversed and find the vital spot on the map to use it.

The game's pacing is spot on and you're challenged to think for yourself to find the best ways to battle foes and unlock the many secrets of Zebes.

A masterpiece of gaming from a design standpoint and a long-lasting single player adventure that's sure to impress. A must for the SNES Mini.
