secret of the stars for the snes
i recommend it to people all the time as a so bad its good game but its hard to find people who have already played it

I have played it, and I still have my copy, and I think Vegy has also, but I could be mixing them up with another poster.

Fun game imo. Sadly the backup team was cooler than the main characters imo.

Let me try and think of something on a more mainstream system. Maybe Castle Quest on the the nes? Iggys Recking Balls is one I played a lot as a kid I forget existed. I had a shitty Frankenstein game on the SNES. That's thinking of things released in English.

SOS (SNES)

Totally hidden gem game.

Not S.O.S. That one stinks.

Gotta be more specific lol, there's like three and they're all pretty bad.

played these

for me, I'll go with Tobari and the Night of the Curious Moon

I don't really post on this site any more but browse occasionally. I'll just post I've played this though. Desunoya is a quite unknown doujin dev.

Would definitely recommend for anyone who likes the idea of a puzzle platforming based around Mario and Kirby and doesn't mind hard levels requiring decent execution. It's basically whacking enemies with your staff to steal their abilities then using them to solve the platform puzzles. Nothing can be carried between levels, so everything you need for a level is in it. Pretty tough to 100%

I wish more of the Desunoya games were also available on Steam, but I've picked most of them up and enjoyed them a lot outside of the SRPG that never finished. I have all the ones on Steam but none of the others yet.

Reverse x Reverse was fun since it involves controlling two characters with different abilities at the same time.

Tobari 2 Dream Ocean is a huge improvement on the first game IMO. Way more approachable, some fixes to movement, and some quality of life features. Way easier to 100% too.

Then there's Tobari 2 Nightmare for the masochists that finished Tobari 2 and wanted something way harder and uses a lot more of the mechanics. I should get back to this sometime since I was on the final actual level of the extra world, but I haven't gotten past the first part of it yet. I do want to see this one to 100% too since it's just this level then the extra boss left for me.

Cosmic Ark is one of the best Atari 2600 games but most people here have never played it.

I had that on my 2600. It was neat to see what the next creatures you had to pick up would be.

No.. , I just don't remember anyone knowing this game when I played it as a kid. I'm basic af though.

Can't remember the name but some game where you played a pirate that could transform into a top hat wearing magical voodoo man.

Treasure of the Rudras and Emerald Dragon for the SNES

I love both!!!! Emerald Dragon is sweet on PCE too.

Here's something I'd rank 10/10 (I'll review it here eventually) that doesn't get enough love:

Tetris DS. It had a limited print because I believe the rights holders stopped Nintendo from printing copies

Front Misson: Gun Hazard

https://youtu.be/bmhVu-2zoCY

If you haven't played this game, you're fucking up. Arguably the best ARPG on SNES.

Rendering Ranger R2

https://youtu.be/Tl7D25I6yDc

Best looking SNES game. Out here looking like it's on the Saturn.

Tengai Makyou Zero

Another late era SNES game that looks more like an early Saturn game.

Have this on my SNES classic

Such a good game. Shout out to SNESDrunk on YouTube, discovered so many absolute banger games because of him.

Dokapon Monster Hunter doesn't seem to be talked about much.

I enjoy and Gun Hazard and Tengai Makyou Zero. Played a few entries in both series.

I played a lot of Zoids: Battle Legends on the GameCube.

Oh and Pacman Fever for the GameCube which was pretty much the "We have Mario Party at home" meme.

It's bad, but I think Mary Shelley's Frankenstein for SNES is actually worse. At least Dr. Franken looks good.

I dont know about that one. I just remember wanting to return Dr Franken as a rental even though I bought it. I will admit some of the music still sticks with me.

Everything I've said in previous topics like this like Brigandine or Silent Bomber or Skullmonkeys or MDK someone else comes in to say they've played it.

At this point at least one of you guys has played any given game I could name lol

Brigandine is the one I usually think of.

I wonder if anyone played this one based on a Japanese metal band I used to be real fond of.

Bravo Air Race (PS1).

I rented it from Blockbuster when I was a kid and enjoyed it, but for a long time the most I could remember about it was that you could unlock jets to race with, as opposed to the normal roster of propeller planes, and that one track featured a water fountain that you could fly through. Many years later, I finally researched the game and found out the name by finding a Youtube video that showed someone flying through the fountain, so I bought myself another copy online.

I liked it. Never finished it. Cant remember why. I might have kept getting a game breaking bug.

Blazing Dragons. It was a point and click adventure on Sega Saturn and PS1. I found it funny as a kid, but holy shit this game is loaded with adult humor and it's great lol. It was influenced by Monty Python and has a ton of big names doing voice overs, including Terry Jones and Cheech Marin

Mort the Chicken (PS1)
Barnyard Blast: Swine of the Night (DS)

The two most obscure games I can remember playing are both farm animal related. That's weird.

This one I actually have played. Was a huge Fan of Front Mission 3. Which made me find out how to play all of the games in the series that never released outside of Japan (glad there's fans out there that care about the series).

a friend of mine from my childhood owned it and it was a lot of fun
he died like ten years ago in a car accident just to make this topic depressing

Damn good game. All the Capcom Medieval beat em ups are so much fun, but Magic Sword is the only one that isn't ridiculously expensive.
