No, not adventure (Zelda, Zelda 3, Zelda: Ocarania of time).

I mean Action/RPG.
You know, games that are like an RPG with action sequences, but where you level up stats with experience points or other methods?

Here's my picks:
Zelda II: Adventure of Link (NES)
Willow (NES)
Faxanadu (NES)
Crystalis (NES)
River City Ransom (NES)
Dungeon Explorer (SCD, Duo)
Y's Series
Dungeons & Dragons:Tower of Doom (Arc)
Dungeons & Dragons: Shadow Over Mysteria (Arc)
Cadash (Arc/Duo/Genesis)
Shadowrun (Genesis)
Ninja Boy series (NES, SNES)
Legend of Mystical Ninja/Goemon (Nintendo systems)

Any I miss out on?

Crystalis is definately the best.

I haven't played much Earthbound, but I'm pretty sure it was a standard RPG.

No No No silly ones, the correct answer is... Downtown Special: Kunio Kun No Jidaigeki Da Yo Zenin Shuugo (famicom). It's a part of the same series as River City Ransom, only 10 times better.

Secret of Mana!!!! I really wish Seiken Densetsu 3 came to the States. A 3 player action/RPG made by Squaresoft? What can be better? (Besides Seiken Densetsu 3 in English).

Cmon Square release it for the ps2, it will be HUGE

Ocarina of Time, was too easy of an adventure. on the other hand, Link to the Past was excellent, but Chrono Trigger is the best along with FF3/6.

better yet, release it for the SNES - get back to the roots! I personally hate the CD/DVD format. Carts all the way!
