I don't mean all the stuff that was easily available in the US like Final Fantasy, Dragon Warrior, Crystalis, etc.

Have you tried Steam? There's a wealth of indie games that attempt to emulate these retro RPGs and probably are a lot better in terms of playability

There are so many of them, man. I don't know the names off the top of my head, I think one that got a lot of attention was Undertale or something like that.

Let’s throw in the snes. Make sure you’ve played Lufia 2. Might be the best rpg on the system but a lot of people haven’t ever played it.

Can’t think of anything obscure on the nes. Castlevania 2 is an adventure (prob not a real rpg but there’s towns and stuff) game if somehow you’ve never played it but likely not what you’re looking for here.

is Zelda 1 an RPG by your definition?

at the 8bit level, is it that it has to be turn based?

Sweet Home is a survival horror RPG from Capcom that inspired Resident Evil. There is an english translation patch, I’ve been meaning to try it

the dragon warrior remakes for SNES are alot more fun to play than the original versions. they need translation but thats easy enough.

Inindo is an interesting RPG/Strategy hybrid for the SNES by KOEI. Worth a shot. Arguably Uncharted Waters: New Horizons is an RPG, with heavy simulation. Paladin's Quest for SNES also respectable from what I remember.

The NES is pretty bare unless you want to get into translated jap shit. I hear Mother (Earthbound series) is worth checking out. Pirates! is fun but not really an RPG in the traditional sense.

Ultima 3 and 4 were good.
