Is it just me, or was Secret of Mana the best RPG ever released? I loved this game, and spent hours playing it. I want those hours back, just so I can play it over and over again. Yeah, I've played the sequels (Legend of Mana and Sword of Mana) and neither has been able to capture the coolness of Secret. Granted, I am slightly biased, as it was the first video RPG I ever played,  but still, I havent found anything (other than some of the final fantasies) nearly as good. I am convinced that, if they were to re-release it for the GBA, or even the DS, it would be a hit (I would certainly get a copy, even if I had to sell my own kidneys to raise the money). Any thoughts? :twirl:

I think my favorite might be "Star Control 2" or perhaps even "Final Fantasy VII."  Of course, I do not get much time to play RPGs these days.

I tried out "Secret of Mana" a year or two ago on an SNES emulator and I thought it was fairly cool. I didn't get much play time out of it because my RPG fever died off fast. I also thought "Chrono Trigger" was a great game as well as was (dare I say this) Super Mario RPG. Along with those, I've always been a big fan of the Zelda series (which is not technically RPG).
