  • This game is so sad. Why do you have to kill your best friend?

  • My god such great memories! I remember way back in the day in 93, when I was in 7th grade. I played this with my sis, and younger bro (who was the sprite- he was in 5th grade at the time lol). We played the hell out of this game, and beat it the day we came home from school; which was also the start of our winter break. I'm now into game design, and I'd like to create a game that made me feel the way this game did.

  • SHOULD I PLAY THIS OR FINISH GOLDEN SUN 1 FIRST?

  • my favorite game of all time.

  • Oak: Take the Sword!

    What, no Pokeballs to catch this Shiney Dragonite?

    @Gimebooze19792

    No.

  • This is my favorite final boss fight of all the games I've played. I love how the Mana Beast flies around, makes that 'rer reooo' sound, then rushes at them. My favorite final boss music too.

  • if im not mistaken, wasn't the last boss in the game the dragon you got along the way?

  • Comment removed

  • as far as world of warcraft that someone mentioned. wow does have its peak points. the night elf zone teldrassil is absolutely stunning and gives off a feeling of being sucked into a dream. much like the outlands. otherwise the game is crap. i actually just quit playing wow lol. if anyone ever DOES play wow you will see several elements they copied off secret of mana and other good classic games, but the NIGHT ELVES starting zone = AMAZING

  • sick bassline!

  • You know, I just don't like this game. Props to you though for putting the time into to it. I've tried to play it a couple of times and can never get into it. I feel like I should like it, since so many love it, yet I just can't. To each their own huh?

  • Favorite game of all time... Beat this playing duo with my brother, both still in elementary school.. Good times.

  • @robloxfan459 Correction, Falammie BECOMES the mana beast.

  • Terranigma, Secret of Mana, The Legend of Zelda, Lufia.....there are som epic games for snes :)

  • The protecter of the sword must be stopped.

  • The music omg, seiken densetsu 3 much!!! =O 9i know the series is the same but it sounds so familiar to a certain BGM)

  • One of the greatest achievements of my young gaming career was defeating this thing. Only to have my heart broken moments later in the ending.

  • @DaishiGajo Same i cried the first time and im a Manly dude

  • @DaishiGajo same here. this game made me cry. i don't know any game which such a dramatic ending

  • Secret of man what gotten me into rpg games

  • @sky16x the creature that you fly on is flammy, a similar but not the same type of being. flammie is a dragon, but this is a mana beast.

  • I love how SNES bosses always explode when you defeat them.

  • i might get this game for the actual SNES! it's 80$ same with ff3, lufia 2 and chrono trigger. contemplating which one to get! ^_^

  • @McScreamo Thats a hard decision. I'd say chrono trigger has the most replay value, FF3 is just amazing, lufia 2 is great but a bit repetitive, secret of mana very innovative. For $80 bucks tho? I'd prolly go with either chrono trigger or ff3. I'm assuming you've played or beaten all 4

  • @JoeyDay

    Play Secret of Mana Hard ModeXD

  • Secret of Mana! my Most favorite in all Snes Games! ^^

  • The last boss is too easy for the game.

  • I just beat this game for the first time yesterday on a real SNES! Took me 2 weeks of playing! Good old retro gaming!

  • @OmegaPirate Ditto! We might have played it over a decade late, but you know you've been part of something special when you feel sad at the credits.

  • @707username707 @OmegaPirate only one other game has made me feel sad at the end. Illusion of Gaia/time (us/uk name) took twice as long as SOM but sad when completed,.

  • Hard self...

    im not wont defeat HE!

  • THIS BOSS IS SO HARD! HAHAHAHAHA!

  • Ah, the game brings back good memories... I remember I could never beat the final boss, had no idea what to do.

  • First time I got to this boss fight, I was all out of MP and MP recovery items.

    Needles to say I lost.

  • I was watching a guy do this battle on the iphone version, he died. he was too stupid to take the blatant hint to cast Mana Magic.

  • You can download emulators for all the snes games, but some madness in me drives me buy all the cool rpg's like this one, mario rpg, final fantasy, chrono trigger, secret of evenmore, illusion of gaia or illusion of time. Their all so expensive , but f*** it. i'm buying them all. Thumbs up if you have the same madness!!!!

  • @CardSharkVeteran Quit spamming random videos douchebag:(

  • best game ever !!

  • Some old childhood memories coming back when i see this

  • I miss killing his beast :P

  • I hated the fact to kill my own pet because it went beserk... :(

  • pixeldragon ftw :D

  • Seriously one of the best games I've ever played.

  • wow..old memories,it was the start of that whole rpg era for me...final fantasy 6, secret of evermore,Chrono trigger....legends like these will never die.

  • real theme starts at 0:44.

  • this brings back good memories. wish i never sold the game

  • they need to remake this game, but with better translation - or even a dialogue revamp, like FFT port to psp

  • @Stevenarius I REALLY want this to come to the American PSN!!!!

  • My two brothers and I grew up beating this game. Let me tell you, 3 controllers on 1 SNES was hi-tech.

  • WAS THIS NOT THE BEST FUCKING GAME ON EARTH?????? HOLY SHIT!!!! FUCK WORLD OF WARCRAFT! GET OUT OF HERE WITH THAT SHIT

  • @l33tpwnzord I think Donekey Kong Country is the best, BUT yes, I am sure this game is better than WOW

  • @GamerNinjaX I have to agree with you on that Donkey Kong Country and Diddy's Kong Quest were both amazing games... Heck I still play these games they are better than what is coming out now!!

  • @l33tpwnzord now that is a comment worthy of a thumbs up ^^

    Indeed, retro games FTW !

  • @l33tpwnzord Was one of the best. Som 2 was even better, even thought it's hard to say, i loved this game.

  • I cannot believe how easy this battle really was, compared to the previous battle with dark lich. (especially after i found his weakness to lucent beam (Lvl 8)

    I've really got to replay this just to beat flammie

  • @AmazonianBeauty I couldn't either, and it's the Mana Beast not Flammie lol! Maybe I was young....But it seems so easy now :S

  • You said it could never be duplicated, that's how good it was. And that Final Fantasy, a franchise that spawned dozens of games, motion pictures, anime shows, soundtracks, and manga, couldn't hold a candle to it. You'd have to be a pretty solid Secret of Mana fan to say it's that good. Not just a casual fan. And like I said, it is a good game, but you're overrating it.

  • @DrBananaKing7000

    It's a lot more fun with two other people.

  • probably the dumbest final boss fight i've ever played actually, i loved the game, and then this boss....just such a retarded concept....

  • Haha, did anyone purchase Secret of Mana for iphone/ipod? I just got it. Sure brings me back.

    Yes I have it for snes still, but it's kinda neat to have a portable (semi-)updated version :)

  • @jarannalli Yeah I did! I thought about it for awhile and decided that the negative comments were obviously from people who didn't play it as religiously as some of us. It's almost perfect hey? In some cases even easier, like magic levelling. But I dunno if you got this...when you kill the bosses they don't get that explodey firey graphic? That's one of my favourite parts! Why would they cut it. It's weirdly satisfying...very weirdly haha.

  • @hannrkelley Dude! I'm so with you. I miss that explodey part!

    SNES is the best, isn't it?

  • @jarannalli Omg yay someone like me! haha, that was creepy. Yeah SNES rocks :)

  • yeah so i saw this game at games n' go and it was $80!!! should i get it for the super nintendo or emulator? :/

  • @McScreamo Get an emulator, mate! I'm using "ZSnes", I don't know if it's the best one or something but it works fine, and you can easily download SNES games (called snes roms). You can play all your favourite games from your childhood! It's fantastic :D

  • best game ever made!

  • Lol'd when OAK told you to do something.

  • Josh Scorcher sure does hate this game :P

  • Fucking amazing.

  • Not enough me in this fight. 

  • This was back when Square were RPG gods.

  • No offense to anyone, but this was a very gay final boss. Kind of a disappointment IMO...

  • @mopbrothers A huge dragon that blasts you with fireballs that fill the entire screen? Getting to revive the Mana Sword? The most amazing final boss theme of any video game ever made?

    Well, whatever does it for you.

  • @koopakape Sure the music's cool, but the concept behind defeating the final boss is stupid. Plus if you run out of magic. You can't win.

  • @mopbrothers Actually you can win. Me and my brother played through flammie ran out of mana and relied on items to beat him. Takes longer to beat him,but can be done.

  • @PiEiNtHeFaCe22 whatever. the battle is still gay.

  • @mopbrothers

    well, it is Flammie after all, a Totally Superr Dragon who just had to come out of the closet and tell the world who he really was! ;D

    A beast created as a weapon hellbent on destroying the planet and all life as we know it. :~(

  • Comment removed

  • omg this was my game n the day

  • im lvl 62 so i just get 0 every time i atack that dragon thing Dx

  • @assura17 Try using the real mana sword....

  • @operations1000 lol thats what im saying,im lvl 62 hiting the mana beast with real mana sword,charging the

    atack to max and still dealing 0 dmg ;3

  • @assura17

    Did you ever resolve this issue? I am lvl 65, fully charged mana sword, still 0 damage. Is it because dryad is at lvl 0???

  • @MentosMan727 Having dryad at level 0 will make the mana-magic effect not last very long. Also, it's an idea to use Luna's magic to buff your attack and crit rate.

  • LOL thanks man! I remember having this problem as a kid too. I never bothered to use dryad before the battle.

    Now I lost my saved game! Ill have to play through again.... thanks

  • GOD I MISS THIS GAME!!!!!

    for some reason, one of my saved games, the main boy was hit by a fish in the sewers and became a snowman and then he disappeared! It was a random glitch and then when I reset and reloaded, he was gone! The girl and sprite's icons were merged in the middle as if the boy never existed. hahaha The last boss was a bitch to kill without him.

  • You should really specify that you used the savegame glitch to get the 9th sword orb. Other than that, was great to re-live this battle again without having to dig out my SNES.

  • i love the music! it's so... fitting!

  • @Puremage91694 Yh m2 :P haha Nice game.

  • i remember i beat this games years ago i love it and its fun

  • best game ever. final fantasy doesn't hold a candle. this game was so good it couldn't be duplicated

  • @datura1983 Maybe in the opinion of Secret of Mana fans, but there are a lot of rpg games out there that crush this game. I liked this game, but your statement is couldn't be further from the the truth

  • @DrBananaKing7000 it's been rated one of the best games of all time so no.. "not just us secret of mana fans" get it straight

  • @datura1983 i dunno chrono trigger and ff6 are pretty epic....

  • @datura1983 Seiken Densetsu 3. Its the sequel, and is better in most ways.

  • @datura1983 Secret of Evermore? lol

  • @ui990 they are nothing alike other than controls duh

  • @datura1983 Ever play Legend of Mana for PS1? It's beautiful.

  • @328805 wow ive gotten a lot of responses. no i havent played that version. i LOVE zeldas link to the past. that's my favorite zelda. better than the first and the first was awesome =)

  • @datura1983 Eh, I think it's more of a mixed opinion.

  • @datura1983

    It's Basically Dissida for SNES.

  • @datura1983

    very true but hopefully one day it can be 'replicated' for a higher platform so we can experience it in its full glory again! :)

  • @trollsnot lol yeah, then i can cry like a baby having to kill the cute lil dragon and knowing the sprite is gonna die :( that so sucks. this game made me cry like a baby when i first beat it lol

  • @datura1983 cool story bro...

  • Comment removed

  • No need for glitches to avoid damage :/

    Just cast Defender. You'll dodge everything

  • So yeah spoiler

    why does everyone think you are fighting flamey? the game itself tells you what the mana beast is, it is every monster currently on the planet combined. So yeah, one fang or one feather might come from him, but the rest ist, well everything mixed together.

    It just looked badass this way so he looks similiar to your badass flying pet.

  • spoiler right in the thumbnail

    god why does everybody do that

  • best game!

  • Yeah but did you use Game Genie Codes or Replay codes, because thats proberly the only way you can max your stats, i played this on the snes & emulation and could defeat the mana beast at levels 63 and with all level 8's on mana magic without the codes and it only took me less than a day

  • I haven't played this game in ages! Why did you have to fight Flamey for the last boss again? I thought he was the one that flies you around the world map, doesn't he? Did he suddenly go evil? I forgot so someone tell me.

  • When I played this game as a kid I honestly had no idea that I was fighting Flamey, which is a good thing because I might not have finished the game had I known.

  • You never needed only 40 hours for that.

  • Brings back good memories!

  • T.T aun me recuerdo cuando jugaba secret of mana

  • A strategy I use for when Lucid Barrier isn't high enough is casting Remedy as he charges at you. You take no damage each time and it's only 1 MP. Having cure water at at least level 6 comes in handy for this fight too

  • that dragon is way to easy :/

  • easyyyyy

  • Naw, it is pretty damn good though. I'd play SoM 2 over Zelda any day though.

  • I realy love the old scool rpgs, playinf a lot of them on GBA some remakes of Dragon quest also great games on DS and a view rpgs on PS2 the are nealry anny good rpgs on PSP (Juwel kingdom monster summoner is great but quit rare) and on PS3 the is like almost no good RPG;s the DS has the best of it now, i so wanna play Dragon quest 9 untik then oklay me some oldies great stuf

  • You fucked that dude UP SON.....

  • Best game ever! ps 3 sux 360 sux nintendo rocks!

  • - this is the sad part of this story  -the end-

  • good old times

  • One of most favorite games

  • yeah in my opinion this console have the best classic rpg games ever like

    chrono trigger

    tales of phantasia

    FF2&3

    Mario RPG

  • You forgot Mother 2!

  • @Ryouh93

    dont forget terranigma^^

  • @Ryouh93 And Earthbound.

  • @Ryouh93 that's not an opinion, that's fact :)

  • @Ryouh93 Yes, I totally agree... I'm not sure why, but the rpgs from this era were so wonderful. The stories were really great, the music was so catchy and memorable, and I am a sucker for the 2D spritework.

  • super nice

  • Yes, good to see lots of love for this game, truly amazing in it's day.

  • old snes rpg beat up wii rpg and can tie with amazing gamecube games like zelda wind waker or pikmin

  • uhh good memories this thing brings, anyways, what's the name of the final battle song? wanna download it

  • Meridian Dance

  • You sure made this look hard lol

  • Does anyone know what happen? one day I was playing the game some skeleton boss b4 this guy then then the small sprite kid disapears I was like wtf?! I search everwhere XD couldnt find him :(

  • One of the best rpg games, secret of mana 2 is an awesome game too, especially when you play on 2players... Gotta love these old snes games. =)

  • I love the original secret of mana fighting style, how you charge and release to do serious damage. the sequel does not have those kind of attk.

  • All I can say is: when I got to the end the first time, I NEVER expected Flammie to be the end boss of the game. I remember it clearly.... when I realized that Flammie was the God/Mana Beast, and when she started to fly right at me, all I could shout was :'HOLY SHIT!!!!'

  • Flammie =/= Mana Dragon

  • Butthole. Yous spoiled it xD

  • I'll try to be as cool about this as I possibly can. When you see Flammie on the video charging toward you, and if you you didn't want ANY spoilers for this game...... it's nothing personal or anger based, but........ WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU WATCHING YOUTUBE? = P

  • Haha, you got me :D

    I watched this video just to see the endfight, not to read such a surprise :D

  • Quite possibly the most creative and well-animated boss fight on the SNES. Lovin' it. I beat this game quite a few times, and it was my favorite game back in the day.

    This boss was nowhere near as easy when you don't spend a ton of time leveling up, and pretty much just play through everything as you go.

    Wasn't necessarily crazy difficult, but was time consuming.

  • from a fanboy POV that would be Giygas from Earthbound but that wasn't to successful in the US...

  • Earthbound kicked ass

  • naaaah, I think it was easy to beat. I once even did it without using the mana-spells!^^

    but you are right. possibly the best animated boss-fight ever

    but only after the one from seiken densetsu 3^^

  • I remember I got to the final boss on accident lol..

  • i remember i pitched my levels so high i it was realy easy to beat the boss in level 33 or someting or 40 i dont know anymore. Its sad that i cant use the power afterwards but its a real good classic and i dont get it why they dont release the sequel in europe i think there was a 3rd part in japan

  • actually the third part is the sequel to this one in japan this is seiken densetsu 2

  • thanks for that i think there was a playstation 1 version only releade in usa and japan what was the best of all seiken dentsu parts (former even secret of mana (seiken dentsu 2) schould have been realeased on playstation 1 in firt place but it never happened. Thanks nintendo for let us europes see Secret of Mana

  • I found a easy way to glitch the game so that Flammie does no damage during the comet attack: When Flammie is far away (like at 1:11) Then makes the noise to attack (1:15) cast the undine healing spell, the spell will hit right at the moment of impact and no damage will occur, plus you heal any lost health from Flammie's attacks.

  • Game and Soundtrack = awesome!

  • I first played this game when I was 4 and i was hooked this was my second favorite game on the SNES but The legend of Zelda a link to the past was my all time favore GOD it was a good game

  • THE best game i have ever played in my life!

  • This game is one of the best in gaming history in my opinion.

    Doesn't it suck when they cast spells on you, though? :P

  • fred commented on my channel

  • Great RPG game all times! Uno de mis favoritos para Super Nintendo

  • (cheated) because to fast attack reload to many HP and so on -.-

  • You have played this game before right? Because your comment makes me think otherwise.

  • yeah i played it throught lvl 70 and my charas dont have so many hp guy has 500 girlie 400 and the gnome 440 and the reload time is as the beginning

  • For levels, in the mid 80's and beyond you'll get some pretty crazy stat bonuses when you level up.

  • really??? if it so than sry but the think where you make full dmg is over powered to fast 100%

  • and also this link in description box look at Blake the Attack is to high because on the right side you see the red line go on .....

  • Yup it does go out of the box. The game programmers didn't really think that part through, although it is just a minor detail.

  • i ment left but now i am confused -.-.... because i think that this is not cheated and then i think it is cheated because of the fast attack reload -.- god damnit

  • You're talking about weapon charging right? I think charge speed is also based on character level and also a stat may be involved too (agility maybe?). I'm not really sure.

  • lets stop talking about such a small shit xDDDDDD

    ...btw i started this shit xDDDDDD

    but it is cool how fast you kill him xD
