Fire Emblem: Thracia 776	Nintendo (Intelligent Systems)	1999	classbased classbasedeq fireemblem firstpartytitle grid grid-square rpsmechanics tactical tacticalrpg wiivirtualconsole	This game was first released via Nintendo Power Service on September 1, 1999, then re-released as a regular box version on January 21, 2000. A deluxe edition included a chest-shaped box, the game in its own box, a fabric world map, a video tape, two postcards and two cuddly toys. The boxed set did not have a traditional ROM cartridge. It contained a Flash Rom Cartridge with the game written to it.*This game is the last game to have been released on the SNES. Very good tactical-RPG but also VERY difficult.*Unofficial English translation in progress: [[link:http://community.livejournal.com/thracia776/profile]] There is also a Chinese translation available somewhere.

Fire Emblem: Seisen no Keifu	Nintendo (Intelligent Systems)	1996	classbased classbasedeq falseprotagonist fireemblem firstpartytitle grid grid-square procreation rpsmechanics tactical tacticalrpg timeskip uvl-fantranslation wiivirtualconsole	Title means "Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War" [Zerothis]***This is one of the best strategy rpg for the Snes. It has an awesome story, (too bad its in japanese) great graphics and music. It also has a big party and you even make them fall in love. Go try it out if you like strategy rpg. To my mind, this game is THE best strategy RPG for ALL PLATFORMS.
Super Robot Taisen Gaiden: Masou Kishin: The Lord of Elemental	Banpresto (Winky Soft)	1996	grid grid-square superrobotwars tacticalrpg	Bahamut Lagoon, Masoukishin, the best in SRPGs. Masoukishin is a gaiden to the SRW series which (as far as I know) explains the histories of some characters. It has 300+ missions and four different endings. The most defining feature is the music. The music is superb, with drum beats (rather novel for the SFC) and an electric guitar! [NeoGranzon]*Just great....A 7.6!? This game deserve much higher! The graphics are way better than other SRW games (like SRW4) and Cybaster/Psybuster is my absolute favorite, it is also a (BIG) plus that the characters have more expressions. (oh and all other suits rule too....except for Jin.ou!) [Gurngust ZX-199]*Unofficial English translation in progress: [[link:http://agtp.romhack.net/]] [cjlee001]
Bahamut Lagoon	Square	1996	dragons grid grid-square homosexuals selectivebreeding tacticalrpg	A top view strategy from Square. Has lots of dragons and stuff. It's quite a change to raise your dragons, eventually you'll have to breed a baby too!! [Haoie]***An awesome game that was released only in Japan, lucky for you an unofficial English translation is available: [[link:http://www.dejap.com/ www.dejap.com]] [cjlee001]

Ball Bullet Gun: Survival Game Simulation	I'MAX;BETOP (Betop)	1995	fogofwar grid grid-square tacticalrpg	Game description from [[link:http://agtp.romhack.net/ Aeon Genesis]]: Ball Bullet Gun is a strategy game, a simulation of Japanese 'survival games' (read: war games.) The closest American approximation is paintball, but that's not quite right. The game itself is fairly cute, but there are a lot of things to take into account when planning your strategies, and it provides a surprising amount of depth for a deceptively simple game. There really isn't any story to speak of, at least not that I know of, but if you're looking for a decent strategy game, this should work wonderfully.

Front Mission	Square (G-Craft)	1995	2090s 21stcentury frontmission grid grid-square locationalhealth mecha savepassword saveram tactical tacticalrpg	The single player mode uses battery back save ram but the 2 player mode uses passwords. [Zerothis]*Game description from [url=http://www.romhacking.net]Romhacking.net[/url]: People in the scene go wild over many of the things in Japan. J-Pop. Giant Mechas. Strategy RPGs. Well, Front Mission takes two of those three things (guess which ones), and swirls them together. The combination of giant robots with huge-ass guns fighting in a turn-based strategy environment should satisfy the inner fan-boy in all of us. The graphics are beautiful, and the gameplay is excellent SRPG fare. Unofficial English translation available: [url=http://fh.digitalmenagerie.org/]fh.digitalmenagerie.org/[/url] [cjlee001]*Not released outside of Japan, but a patch is available. This concerns the exploits of the second Huffman war from the perpective of a mercenary squad called 'Carrion Crew'. Lots of Wanzer battles. [Haoie]

Now, take out the boring random first-person battles, and change it to a strategy RPG perspective. Behold, for you now have Majin Tensei. It's a nice little strategy game, for you kids who like that kind of crap, and it's also got the whole demon-negotiation thing, for the devil summoner in you.
