Not the SFC versionTales of Phantasia is better than FFVI and Chrono Trigger.
Not the SFC version
Well not any version at all but especially not the SFC one. Tales of Phantasia is great but hasn't aged as well as CT or FFVI.
The undisputed first place aside, which other SNES RPG is worthy of playing even in 2017, and why?
I'm like that with Secret of Mana. In my memories it's the best and perfection. Time however hasn't been as kindBut my memories...and my Indignation intro ;_;
SFC version has the best music, at least.
What are the differences between the versions?Not the SFC version

As has already been made evident by the replies, the exact order varies but CT, Earthbound, FFVI, and SMRPG are easily the top RPGs on the SNES.
The real debate is which game ranks 5th behind those. I mean you have Secret of Mana, Zelda LTTP, Secret of Evermore, Illusions of Gaia, etc...

If you want to play more, Romancing SaGa 2, Terranigma, all Dragon Quest games, Secret of Mana, Seiken Densetsu 3 and all Final Fantasy games on the system are better.
FFVI then Chrono Trigger fam.

Ogre battle
There's the Super Famicom version and the PlayStation remake. Super Famicom version has sprites that look nothing like the art and a weird split skill system. The remake (all other versions are based on this version) adds a plethora of features that are now series staples (skits, cooking, anime opening and song etc) and updated the battle system accordingly using the Tales of Destiny engine, also added a new playable character and updated the sprites to actually look like the art.What are the differences between the versions?

I'd say the SFC version aged better than the PS1/GBA versions of Phantasia at least. The only thing I dislike about the SFC version is the subpar fan translation.Not the SFC version

Although many people don't know it but the correct answer is Front Mission.
