Racing Games are one of the things the Super Nintendo is genuinely for. The ones worth playing start with Super Mario Kart, F-Zero, Top Gear.
The best-balanced 16-bit library there is. The SNES is where the NES generation's ideas got room to breathe, and where the Japanese RPG became a genre people outside Japan cared about.
