Tbh I only had like 6 cartridges for the SNES, got some more for cheap when people sold them off later. Most of the games I played were on emulator, was really pushing on the technology back then. When I started playing Chrono Trigger the best emulator Zsnes was still unable to handle the animations properly during battles, causing the screen to blink. But this was solved in an update when I was a few hours into the game and it was fine after...

It was a different world entirely, when the things to wait for were emulator upgrades and fan translations of Japanese RPGs.

I would mostly play games at a friend whose brother ordered all new PlayStation games from a local pirate. They were real printed CDs from a pirate factory in China.

SNES ROMs I got from a friend who have cable Internet, there was no way for me to download them at home.
