I have it. Had Enternow replace the battery. Started in, was really enjoying it, then got distracted and forgot to go back

I'll make a point of doing so if you reckon it's better than every other SNES RPG...?

Well worth a play. The first three games in the series are equal parts archaic and ahead of their time. Phantasy Star IV modernises it. Be warned though, Phantasy Star is nothing like light hearted JRPGs. It's more in line with the Shin Megami Tensei series in terms of gameplay and tone. It's quite a serious and depressing sci-fi story.
