There are a lot of good nes/snes games but they are more difficult to play on modern systems because tv latency is much higher for lcds than crts.

secret of mana, final fantasy 6 (aka final fantasy 3 US) for the snes and chrono trigger are rated very highly because of how cool the gameplay and story were secret of mana, however, had the best gameplay and probably has the most replay value out of all of them

JRPGs age extremely poorly because they don't offer any gameplay beyond picking options from menus and are entirely dependent on the console's graphical ability for their entertainment value

i suspect the reason old-as-gently caress pc rpgs hold up better than their wretched console equivalents is just processing power late 1980s pcs had horrible, horrible graphics, but they typically had 640 kb of ram, and they had a pretty fast processor (e.g. a 286), and they all had persistent storage, even if it was floppies, so savegames were a thing the snes had excellent graphics, but a horribly slow cpu and only 128 kb of ram. also no persistent storage you weren't gonna get ssi gold box games, or starflight, or what have you rpgs just didn't fuckin fit onto the system, unless they were crippled stupid wrecks like jrpgs

chrono trigger was a nice experience, just not fun enough as a game to warrant spending an entire day playing through. but it has still aged quite nicely given that it came out about 24 years ago
