"Super Ghouls & Ghosts"

The notoriously hard-as-nails platform game comes to the SNES with a makeover, and it is both visually and sonically very nice indeed. It's just as monstrously hard as its predecessor, although deaths feel downright unfair sometimes in a way they never really did in the original. On the other hand, the torch is not quite as catastrophically useless and the chests are far more likely to return your armour than turn you into a duck. Not quite as good as the Genesis G&G, but it's a great looking and challenging platform game although the easily frustrated may be put off by its unforgiving difficulty level.
