Here's an SNES RPG from Square that you may have heard of at one time or another; one that never left Japan. It was just recently translated so I decided to check it out and share what I thought about it.
The gameplay is very similar to Final Fantasy Tactics and Tenchi Muyo; you move parties of 4 characters around a grid-like map and give them commands. Each party of 4 characters has a dragon which assists it, and you have to care for your dragons by feeding them various items. I haven't played very far in the game yet, so I haven't really got a good grasp on the plot, but from what I can make of it, you're a knight in a rebellion based on an airship, in a world of many islands in the sky. An evil empire has taken over the skies, and you are trying to fight back, meanwhile a legend concerning the Holy Dragons is coming into fruition.
Here are some screenshots from the game:
