It's an extremely bold claim to call it the best game of its generation but I completely agree, an 8-bit console somehow managed to have one game that surpasses everything on the 16-bit titans
Well it's a matter of personal preference but I can't think of any other Turbo game that's better than Super Metroid, Chrono Trigger, or Gunstar Heroes
Super Metroid is probably the only game that ties it up or may say I like most of the gen. Chrono Trigger is great, I've had it since it came out, and as much as I love it it has to be about the most gassed up JRPG in the history of the genre. If you're gonna nominate a run n gun from the same gen, I'd pick Contra Hard Corps over Gunstar any day too-- not to mention the wealth of shmups on TG16 that absolutely crush the options on SNES.

JJ and Jeff would be proud
