This should be a collector's item, because not only did they recreate Sim City for Super Nintendo, but they added some nice features to make it Nintendo's own game (like statues of Mario and Bowser as Godzilla). You are the newly elected mayor of a plot of dirt, which you must turn into a massive city with 1,000,000 "sims" (people). As the mayor, you must face issues like riots, traffic, polution, crime, and natural disasters like tornados, fires, floods and even Bowser coming to destroy your city!!! This is a pretty basic game, you make roads, make zones which grow to buildings and connect them all with power lines and a power plant.

Amazing- I had this game many years, and I liked it so much that I still play it a lot. It is a great value,especially for the price, and it is cool to design your own city and how it works! I also recommend buying Simcity 2000.That game is even better than this one!

You get to build city's that get traffic jams,railroads,planes fly around and ships float.Try getting more people,more land and more city.If your are creative this is the game for you.

i bought five games with my FC-16 and i have played this one the most its great very retro pc feel great graphics very highly recommended if your a fan of the sim city series!!!!

This game is amazing, especially for newcomers to the simcity series. It's relatively simple, but the depth is intense.

For the price, it would be a poor decision to pass this game up.

This game is *very* old school and is much like the original Sim City that came out on the PC. Compared to Sim City 2000 and upwards, this game is very simplistic, its graphics so and so. There's only a few things you can build besides the standard Resident, Commercial, and Industrial Zones, such as sports stadiums, police/fire stations, and seaports. Even at the fastest speed in the game, the process is actually fairly slow compared to the fast option in future SimCity games. If you're a fan of the newer SimCity games and want to go old school, you might enjoy this, but I definitely enjoyed SimCity 2000 better.

it might be a little less than hi-tech, but this is undeniably the greatest video game ever. so there.

This is my favorite game out there. I find myself lost in it for hours that turn into days. This Sim City is much more user friendly than Sim City 2000. I found that game to be quite difficult after being spoiled to this one. It's all about building and maintaining your city as mayor. You can turn off the city disasters if you want, which is good. I hate spending alot of money on a project, and it ends up being hit by an airplane. If your own house gets destroy'd, I don't believe you get another so be careful. Traffic jams are my biggest problem, I can't seem to build enough road, but hey it's alot of fun trying. If your really into the game you may consider trying to get your hands on the million dollar cheat code.

First and foremost, the reviewer sitebender is a little off with his explination that achieving a population of 1,000,000 (1 million) Sims (people) is the ultimate goal. It's 500,000 (half a million) my friend. One million is simply impossible. Once you attain half a million Sims, you reach the Megalopis level, which is what sitebender was getting at, the utlimate goal of the game.

However, it's not the only goal. Your objective doesn't necessarily have to be obtaining a large population. Your game plan could be to have a population of a mere three thousand Sims with fifty football stadiums. Or maybe a city with no police stations, a crime driven city for mobsters and thugs to kick back. It could be anything! That's why this Super NES classic has such high replay value. In fact, over the years, I've found this to be the best Sim game every created, for PC and video game consoles alike. It's that damn fun.

There's so many magnetizing factors involved with this game, that it's almost impossible to put the controller down, especially if you're a first time Sim player.

Unlike other games that get beat and collect dust, Sim City for the Super NES will remain a fresh and heavily used video game. You can't exactly beat this game, because there's always a new challenge that awaits within. An excellent game. Sheer excellence. So as the mayor of Sim City, will you have what it takes to maintain the city you are in complete control of? You'll never know unless you try!

not that this game is bad, but it is hard to play on Console, because PC makes everything so much easier for games like this. I would recommend playing this game, but on the PC not the SNES. 2 stars for this one.
