Question on importing SFC games.
Arseen:
JAP version of Final Fight Guy is one good example or any of the Rushing beats.
Mega Man X games in JAP format are cheaper than US versions.
FritzWhite:
Pretty much whatever expensive snes game that you want, the sfc version is cheaper. I know they're going up in price lately, but still usually much less than snes.
As long as the game doesn't have too much text, you're good to play.
I've considered sfc for games like: final fight guy, mega man x2 and x3, castlevania Dracula x, demons crest (ultimately went for snes version on this because of the text in game menu)
Umbra:
I may still get FF6 just as personal shelf candy and to be honest I'd get some enjoyment out of playing it since I'm teaching myself Japanese anyway. That being said those are some good suggestions. I heard Front Mission games weren't that hard to play either if you get SFC. I'm just kind of opposed to repros (i like the idea but it's a tad grey for me) and I removed the region tabs on my SNES lately so I figured I'd see what's out there to try.
I'm thinking Super Metroid is a good choice too since I heard that it has an English option. It's also around half the price of the US version so that's always a plus.

JAP/US games won't play on PAL SNES or vise versa.

Europe doesn't count :P

Except for Final Fight 3, which is apparently really rare in Japan :-\
Bear78:
If your looking for SFC exclusives and like shmups then I would recommend the following:
Macross: Scrambled Valkyrie
Parodius
Gokujou Parodius
Jikkyou Oshaberi Parodius
Pop N Twinbee
