What is this Super Nintendo called?

I had a Super Nintendo game while I was living in Germany as a child and I thought it was the greatest game that I've ever played. but I don't remember what it is called and nobody here in the US seems to know what I'm talking about. It was an PRG, kind of like Zelda, but it focused on action a lot. The hero had a green sword throughout the game. He went to mny different world regions like China and South america. in the beging when weciding where to go the map could be zoomed into closer (which I though was really great on the SNES). Before the beginning title came up, the whole planet was pictured and the word "TIME" apeared. There are not too more game specific details that I can say or remember. Whoever can provide me with more information will receive 2 Yahoo! Answers points. Huh? How about it? Thank you very much.

You really got me on this! The only thing I can think of is Chrono Trigger, Mega Man X3 and Act Raiser. Perhaps after more pondering I can think of other games. Hope this helps!

Reply:It could be Xenosaga Episode 2 or Ys (perhaps Ark of Napishtim) too.





The hero in Chrono Trigger and Secret of Mana does not have a green sword, but Zero (from Mega Man) definately did. While each of these games let you choose different continents to visit, none of them were named, or had the same name as they do in the real world (wasn't called "China").





That means that unless you remember those names being mentioned specifically, those aren't the correct games.





I'll be thinking about it.
