#1 Super Metroid agreed! Still my favorite ending to ANY game! That moment when the metroid dies and samus glows, the music change, then the hyper beam...they don't make them like that anymore!
For me, seeing Terranigma's ending come together for the first time took my breath away. The way every big theme and little moment in the game built up to that bittersweet gut punch of a payoff was like seeing the developers pull off this amazing magic trick right before my eyes. It affected me way more than I was ready for. It's not just my favorite ending on this console, but of all time.
I always loved the ending of Illusion of Gaia. Bittersweet romantic. Also Secret of Evermore and Terranigma of course. Also Super Mario World 2 for that ridiculously awesome final boss fight! DKC2 and F-Zero were worth finishing because of the awesome end credits soundtracks......
Not only do you keep your channel fresh with these oddball lists (most relaxing/best ending etc), I really like the reasons for each. Also learned new stuff for games you've already talked about that interest me that I haven't gotten to yet. Skip option a nice touch as well (even if I'll forget the spoiler when I get to the game) Thanks for all your hard work! See you (on RUclips) on Thursday.
It's definitely one of the best and most creative SNES games and the game is absolutely incredible, surprising no one since it was composed by Yoko fricking Shimomura. It's no coincidence that my favorite game ever is Legend of Mana, another game with an OST by Yoko.
@@InjusticeHater The buildup to that scene was also done very well. You know what's going to happen, and you don't want to progress, but you must. Ouch.
I was 14 years old when I played Terranigma, I'm 35 now and after all these years I get goosebumps and the ocasional teary eye when I remember the story and ending of that game, It's one of those endings that get's stuck with you.
I was playing it, I got to the castle where there is a witch or something like that, but I lost my progress and gave up. I want to play it again, but my inspiration is gone :(
I can really hear the emotion and nostalgia in your descriptions of these games, as I totally relate. Being 41 now, the SNES is my all time favourite system and your bang on right with the emotion that games like Super Mario World, A Link To the Past, Final Fantasy VI and Super Metroid bring out. Fantastic episode and looking forward to the next one. Cheers dude.
When I was a young teen in the 90s I was sorely determined to get all of those endings. Mind you I had NO idea how many there were or how to do it. There was no internet for me to look at etc. I just played the fuck out of it. I didnt get all of them until I actually had internet. I'll love that game forever. I just bought a DS and the game so I can play it again.
It always makes my day coming home from work cracking that first beer and having a new snesdrunk video. Thank you for all your time and hard work making these awesome videos.
Star Fox and Secret of Mana just barely missed the list. SoM's ending is pretty unexpected, especially since the story is so sparse (compared to most other games) leading up to it
Terranigma's ending still gives me chills. Music plays such an important role, I feel. You explained that game's story much better than I could have. Also, I've still never played Earthbound. I really have to get on it.
You picked some really great endings. Super Metroid’s ending sequence was insane to me as a kid. I think you should do another “13 great endings” video sometime, this was great.
Super Metroid as no. 1! Kudos my man. It's my absolute favorite game of all time. Whenever life throws me rough shit, I fire up my SNES on a good CRT TV and run through it. Always helps me get going. But you didn't mention the credit roll for Link to the Past. IMO the best composition of the main theme song. Gives me goosebumps ever single time. I crank up my stereo and just listen with rapture! Great video! I'm gonna play some SNES today now...
I like your channel because you go straight to the point with valuable information. No click baits, genuine sense of humor and no reasons to show your face. Great!
@@SICKBOY1001 something about having an actual copy is... "special." As time goes on, physical copies are becoming more expensive and harder to find, so I understand nabbing the roms, but I have a list of games I adore that I try to collect. Even if I'll never play them again. I've been trying to buy Moonwalker for the Genesis for months now at a price that won't kill me, but no luck yet.
You really have created a movement of playing SNES games whilst sipping alcohol. As a Sega veteran, this approach to visiting my school playground rival really is giving me some enjoyment. Best wishes, and have a great rest of your day ...
I guess if we wanna keep one-upping the Nintendoids, we're just gonna have to make playing Mega Drive games while getting stoned a thing. Sega tokes when Nintendon't!
@@zakazany1945 ironically at least for me, playing that game on LSD wouldn't be trippy, on acid I can't trip on moving images. 2CB would be damn fun, though!
"as is being custom here, the music induces some bigtime goosebumps" -- man, you couldn't be more right. Something about the SNES that hasn't really been replicated very often is how the ending themes really hit the old onion-chopping notes :) I adore your videos, and the little touch with the arrows pointing out skip points was bloody genius!
You can still watch this video even if you don't want any games spoiled. Just watch for the arrows on the time bar that show you where to click so you can skip to the next video.

@@mrsmiter Thanks. I don't really know how to make it so it lines up in every screen format, I just thought I'd give it a shot to at least give people an opportunity to skip spoilers
SNES drunk i want to thank you for pushing Terranigma. It was such a rewarding (and sometimes frustrating) playthrough. Really though, your channel has served as a treasure trove of invaluable information to me (and many others) and some of the best experiences with games I’d either not heard of, or was just totally uninterested in before. Thanks!
Good choice to include Chrono trigger, Live a Live, Terraenigma( all of them being my alltime favourite Japanese Roleplay games) Super Metroid( a great game for Speedrunning) and Super Mario World( Good game), but screw you for excluding Treasure of the Rudras, Donkey Kong Country and E.V.O search for Eden.
I got A Link To The Past when I was 8. It took me YEARS to pass that game (on several replays I always got stuck on the ice palace. It took me years to figure out you had to pull the tongue on a statue) and when I finally beat it, the ending was the most satisfying thing.
For me is Terranigma #1 slightly before Super Metroid. The ending is so memorable. It‘s been 23 years now, since I’ve finished it and I am still coming back to enjoy it. Btw: another great video! Thank you so much!
I love that "skip to TIME to avoid spoilers on X" margin because it gave me some reaction time to decide that I actually want to play Ignition Factor, Earthbound and Live-A-Live to see their endings. I agree that the best endings are always on RPGs with Chrono Trigger and SMRPG being the best of the happy ones (after a bitersweet ending where you say goodby to Geno but see the rest of the gang getting their lives back together, suddenly, a parade with all the characters starts, amazing, THAT'S how you close a game). I'd have chosen also the MK2 ending for Shang Tsung (yeah, super specific I know), where he wins the tournament and conquers Earthrealm. Top Tier, buddy!
Thanks for shining a light on live a live, its a unique game and it kept me interested the whole way through. I hope more people play it. You really made it seem like the awesome game it is, the narrative was BONKERS to take in when i first played it blind. Uniting all your characters at the end was awesome, I loved having my favorites work together as a super party
That was an amazing list! Definitely have to get around to playing Live a Live at some point. Also Super Metroid totally deserves no. 1 that ending still gives me goose bumps
Dude.... save the frames.... Seriously tho, thanks for including Terranigma. I'm from germany and played the game when i was young. It really impacted me and I tear up every time during the ending. Just so serene and beautiful. Goodbye Ark. You can rest.
omg dude, I watched the Grumps play Super Metroid. I didn't know the ending and neither did they, so I was just as emotional and surprised as they were. A+ ending.
Terranigma's ending is amazing, it is indeed a wonderful game. You have also a playable epilogue in which you get to talk to all the villagers before you go to sleep, triggering the ending. I don't want to spoil anything, but it is really heartbreaking. The montage that plays during the credits roll, which makes full use of mode 7, is also incredible. I also agree that Super Metroid's ending is among the best endings of all time.
Sweet!!! I’m still SNESdrunk from last night. I was watching a bunch of previous episodes. So many amazing videos to chose from. Keep ‘em coming brother.
The song "To Far Away Times" on Chrono Trigger never leaves an eye dry in me. It's so hauntingly beautiful that it sheds every tear around every gamer who completes it.
great vid, as usual! The ending in Chrono Trigger with the staff as the characters also appears in SaGa Frontier on the PS1 if you beat the game with all the playable characters. That's a game from Square Soft and, again, from the PS1, so if you enjoyed the idea there, maybe you'll enjoy it in another nice game too
I've watched a ton of your videos, but somehow I'd never heard of Live a Live. Sounds like an excellent game that I'm hyped to start up now! Also the structure sounds like it really inspired Octopath Traveler on Switch.
I've never made it all the way through Terranigma but damn that sounded interesting. Same with Live a Live. You have a great rest of your day as well, sir.
The ending of Terranigma is well worth the unfortunate grinding for Bloody Mary and Dark Gaia. If you ever give it another go, visit Neotokio before first visiting Beruga and check the garbage can next to the vacant lot at the northernmost part of the city. You can get there at earliest by first flying to the bird's roost from the African jungle and then taking the bird that flies you to Japan. Alternatively, it has a seaport, so you can take the ship. Funny enough, the place has electricity and phones even though neither are invented until later.
We used to sit in a group to the ending of SMW and all name all the enemies out loud as they scrolled across the screen and laugh That was a really fun touch for sure 👍

And yes, I know I screwed up the pronunciation the 2nd time because I'm an idiot. But the 1st time was correct.
Thank you for making this video. I would never have had the time to play a bunch of these games, and getting to find out the end of them was super satisfying.
FF6 has one of my favorite game endings of all time but I couldn't think of what you you'd put for #1 and when it came up - yep. Super Metroid. If there were ever a game that could potentially be the greatest game of all time on any console, PC, or anything, it could be that. An absolute master class in game design thats essentially never been topped.
As a veteran gamer one of the best was Breath of Fire II. Probably important to note that I've only played the re-translated version but I was Totally blown away by the story and the ending.
The "bad" and "sad" endings are pretty memorable especially the sad ending. Go all the way through the game and it goes full circle like that. Brilliant 👍
Technically on SMW you do get a kinda different ending if you beat all of star world. But I understand what you were getting at. Great list nonetheless. Keep up the awesome work. You're a hidden gem on RUclips.
With Odio being the Thanos of Square Enix here, seriously he is the Most powerful square Enix villain ever created and the JRPG's most powerful misanthropist.
For LttP, when I was a kid I cried as the flute boy "died" in the dark world after granting his final request. Then I cried again when you see him alive and well, reunited with his father during the ending.
Illusion of Gaia was good until the ending. Terranigma is awesome beginning to end. Also Live A Live has an amazing soundtrack. Yoko always does a great job. Just ask Legend of Mana and Kingdom Hearts
My favorite ending of all time is Final Fantasy II (Final Fantasy IV) on other platforms. The whole game is very emotional and the ending is just epic.
Man I dont understand why I was part of the war between Snesdrunk and AVGN...because this channel is the best one I discovered since AVGN!!! I wish one day for you to start doing the ps2 games !! You are truly entertaining and interesting and thank you for not trying too much jokes !! It's an honor to be a new fan
I was getting nervous when you kept going without mentioning earthbound... I'm so glad it made your #2. I love the entire game, but that ending had such an impact in contrast to all the silliness that came before it.
Great list my friend. I love your channel. Another satisfying and unexpected is Pilotowings (Spoiler alert) After you rescued those weird people, they treat you like a hero and you walk between soldiers and your old instructors, (and the music, oh men I love it) in the end you're face to face with big Al. Was amazing.
Love that you compiled a list of endings for both mainstream and non-mainstream games. A couple of the mentioned ones I never heard of and yet I’m curious to play it. Wish it was released to gameboy console to try out.
This was probably already mentioned a bunch of times in the comment section, but also when you rescue the animals at the end before escaping on your ship you actually get to see them fly away from the planet before it explodes. It just appears as a white dot flying away in the distance because of well how far away it is.
The ending to Super Metroid left such an impression on me when I finally beat it. Mainly because it was so difficult to get there but also, the music! it was incredible for the SNES to be able to do all that. Nice choice for number 1!
You picked my two favorite Super Nintendo games, and probably my two favorite games of all time for the top two. Great job. ... And I skipped at least three of these. There's just some RPGs that I really don't want to know the end of unless I play them.
The ending music for Terranigma - "Return to Mother Earth" - is what has stuck with me the longest, and even watching it in this video it made me cry. It's so good.
Cool video man, love this concept...sometimes we seem to forget that the ending is a big part of the games we play. Also, very considerate of you to offer ways to avoid spoilers. Kudos!
That first play through of Super Metroid was amazing. The Metroid coming to save me blew my mind. I've never had a game come close to that level excitment

The ending to Yoshi's Island is my #1, by a lot, it's so emotional, visually beautiful, and that music... Omg. Perhaps Koji Kondo's best work.
I can't believe he skipped it over. It has such cinematic pacing.

donkey kong country is not on the list??? that ending was arguably better than earthworm jim as far as the comedy is concerned
Live-A-Live is one of my absolute favorites and I just love it for how it concludes itself in the end!
It's definitely one of the best and most creative SNES games and the game is absolutely incredible, surprising no one since it was composed by Yoko fricking Shimomura. It's no coincidence that my favorite game ever is Legend of Mana, another game with an OST by Yoko.

I've never made it all the way through Terranigma but damn that sounded interesting.
Same with Live a Live.
You have a great rest of your day as well, sir.
You should make it a personal endeavor to complete both of those games. They are both so worth it.
The ending of Terranigma is well worth the unfortunate grinding for Bloody Mary and Dark Gaia.
If you ever give it another go, visit Neotokio before first visiting Beruga and check the garbage can next to the vacant lot at the northernmost part of the city. You can get there at earliest by first flying to the bird's roost from the African jungle and then taking the bird that flies you to Japan. Alternatively, it has a seaport, so you can take the ship.
Funny enough, the place has electricity and phones even though neither are invented until later.
I really wish “Live a Live” had been brought over, that ending and those twists are better than a lot of stories we get in most modern games!
We used to sit in a group to the ending of SMW and all name all the enemies out loud as they scrolled across the screen and laugh
That was a really fun touch for sure 👍
I always thought Live A Live was pronounced Live A Live.
It’s pronounced Live Alive. Live as in “live a good life” not live as in “live action”. Not sure how he made that mistake.
no you idiot it's pronounced Live A Live

On the box it says ライブ ア ライブ
Lets head to Google Translate

Click the sound icon in the English section. And yes, I know I screwed up the pronunciation the 2nd time because I'm an idiot. But the 1st time was correct.
Backwards it's evil a evil
The helicopter head spin to head whip swing at 6:02 was very impressive.
Thank you for making this video. I would never have had the time to play a bunch of these games, and getting to find out the end of them was super satisfying.
Good to see somebody finally giving credit to Super Mario World ending. The music, the credits, the enemies names... it just great!
I beat Link to the Past a couple days ago. I told my kids that there would probably be a cool ending and fortunately it did not disappoint.
My picks:
Zelda' Link to the Past, Super Mario, Mario RPG
Edit: All three?!? Sweeeeet!!!
My personal favorite endings would be Final Fantasy II and Earthbound
FF6 has one of my favorite game endings of all time but I couldn't think of what you you'd put for #1 and when it came up - yep. Super Metroid. If there were ever a game that could potentially be the greatest game of all time on any console, PC, or anything, it could be that. An absolute master class in game design thats essentially never been topped.
It's definitely mine for sure 👍
oh man, snes drunk says save the animals, hell yeah
also my snes drunk shirt arrived today, can't wait to wear it!
EarthBound’s ending is one of the big reasons I consider it to be my favourite game
As a veteran gamer one of the best was Breath of Fire II. Probably important to note that I've only played the re-translated version but I was Totally blown away by the story and the ending.
The "bad" and "sad" endings are pretty memorable especially the sad ending. Go all the way through the game and it goes full circle like that. Brilliant 👍
Technically on SMW you do get a kinda different ending if you beat all of star world. But I understand what you were getting at. Great list nonetheless. Keep up the awesome work. You're a hidden gem on RUclips.
Interesting. I actually forgot about that because in every one of my playthroughs I just get everything every time anyway lol
The finale in Live A Live was the Infinity War of the SNES to me and had me so happy.
With Odio being the Thanos of Square Enix here, seriously he is the Most powerful square Enix villain ever created and the JRPG's most powerful misanthropist.
@@basilofgoodwishes4138 Agreed.
Live A Live is such an underrated gem and a fantastic way to get into jRPG's.
It's everything Octopath traveler is not.......Awesome.
With Earthworm Jim there's an audio clip for PC and SEGA CD versions saying you beat the game and some funny stuff.
Long time subscriber. Loved this video! Truly an underrated channel. Keep it up.
What's even better is that the ending where you save the creatures in Super Metroid is canon and ties into the ending of Metroid Fusion.
Funny, I’ve just started playing super metroid for the millionth time last night.
Amazing game.
For LttP, when I was a kid I cried as the flute boy "died" in the dark world after granting his final request. Then I cried again when you see him alive and well, reunited with his father during the ending.
The sign of brilliant story telling and execution 👍
Illusion of Gaia was good until the ending. Terranigma is awesome beginning to end. Also Live A Live has an amazing soundtrack. Yoko always does a great job. Just ask Legend of Mana and Kingdom Hearts
My personal favorite was the ending to Illusion of Gaia. I actually taped it to VHS so I could watch it whenever I wanted.
Oh my god this has to be one of my favorite RUclips videos of all time! Awesome work!
My favorite ending of all time is Final Fantasy II (Final Fantasy IV) on other platforms. The whole game is very emotional and the ending is just epic.
Man I dont understand why I was part of the war between Snesdrunk and AVGN...because this channel is the best one I discovered since AVGN!!!
I wish one day for you to start doing the ps2 games !! You are truly entertaining and interesting and thank you for not trying too much jokes !! It's an honor to be a new fan
I was getting nervous when you kept going without mentioning earthbound... I'm so glad it made your #2. I love the entire game, but that ending had such an impact in contrast to all the silliness that came before it.
Great list my friend. I love your channel.
Another satisfying and unexpected is Pilotowings
(Spoiler alert)
After you rescued those weird people, they treat you like a hero and you walk between soldiers and your old instructors, (and the music, oh men I love it) in the end you're face to face with big Al.
Was amazing.
Love that you compiled a list of endings for both mainstream and non-mainstream games. A couple of the mentioned ones I never heard of and yet I’m curious to play it. Wish it was released to gameboy console to try out.
This was a really fun video to watch. Great job of explaining the game stories first to help make sense of it all.
Thank you for watching
This was probably already mentioned a bunch of times in the comment section, but also when you rescue the animals at the end before escaping on your ship you actually get to see them fly away from the planet before it explodes. It just appears as a white dot flying away in the distance because of well how far away it is.
For the sequel, Chrono Cross, it too shares like 12-15 endings and one of those endings redoes the "meet the devs via npcs".
The ending to Super Metroid left such an impression on me when I finally beat it. Mainly because it was so difficult to get there but also, the music! it was incredible for the SNES to be able to do all that. Nice choice for number 1!
Thanks for the Super Metroid trick (saving the alien friends), I'm playing this game time to time since almost 30 years and never heard about that !!!
DKC 2 for me, but this was an enjoyable list.
Yeah DKC2 should easily be in top 5
You picked my two favorite Super Nintendo games, and probably my two favorite games of all time for the top two. Great job. ... And I skipped at least three of these. There's just some RPGs that I really don't want to know the end of unless I play them.
The ending music for Terranigma - "Return to Mother Earth" - is what has stuck with me the longest, and even watching it in this video it made me cry. It's so good.
The prelude at the end of ALTTP with the spinning triforce gets me.
Dude the credit roll for LTTP is so good. Beautiful music from an SNES game.
Cool video man, love this concept...sometimes we seem to forget that the ending is a big part of the games we play. Also, very considerate of you to offer ways to avoid spoilers. Kudos!
That first play through of Super Metroid was amazing. The Metroid coming to save me blew my mind. I've never had a game come close to that level excitment
Good list! But I would squeeze the Donkey Kong Country Trilogy somewhere in there too
Great channel. Thanks to you Im always discovering new and awesome snes games to keep playing.
Thank you for watching
