Under appreciated Games and Hidden Gems!

[Parodius Duh]

Suggest a game you think not too many have played before, that you find to be pretty damn good. Ill start with 'Time Zone', what an awesome platformer this is. Very Rockman-ish albeit the sprites are larger and you have a killer baseball hat boomerang instead of a gun. Im surprised this one has you know, never been brought up before or is better known in the Famicom community. Definitely one of the better platformers, Id rank it up there with Hammerin' Harry (for some reason it reminds me of this game.)

Super Fighter III/Street Fighter III; Awesome graphics for 8-bit without much flicker, fluid controls and well-programmed physics and AI.

I'd also suggest Ninja Crusaders. Not quite as good as Ninja Gaiden, but it has two player co-op.

Every game I like. Especially Armadillo.

no one ever talks about Daiku no Gen-san. Love that game.

My second favorite game, sadly the sequel didn't live up to the original. IT'S HAMMERTIME!

You know what game is really a hidden gem? 4 Nin Uchi Mahjong. Hell, even the title screen contains a secret gem in itself!



Now that's quality.

I would've mentioned that one myself, but I figured it was already well-known.

Yeah Time Zone's nice. Feels like a cross between Wagyan Land and Adventure Island imho.

Off the top of my head, stuff I like but don't see mentioned too often on messageboards:

Just tried out Koneko Monogatari for FDS.......its a game based upon the film 'Milo & Otis' you know, the semi-sad Childrens movie about a Dog and Cat best friends who are trying to get home.....

This game is pretty cool, Nothing unique or spectacular, but if you are looking for a decent platformer that is out of the norm, then check this one out!

Uchu Keibi tai Space defence force.  Actually I don`t know if it is under appreciated or if it already has some mass following, but its quite good.
