top underrated classics of old

looking for something that is so unknown yet is so awesome for the NES/SNES/N64/PSX system

 

Zombies Ate My Neighbors - snes

 

lufia 2 is awesome but i don't know if its unknown to you

 

it's known. it's known big time.

will do

 

NES: Anything from HVGN eps that's a NES game
SNES: urfbownd
N64: Clay Fighters, Goemon, Glover, Paperboy
PSX: Rakugaki Showtime, probly some others (cant think ATM)

 

Kirby 64 for the N64. real fun game. think it was the only one with merging powers.
einhander for psx(?) if you love sidescrolling shmups.

 

That's for PS2 (the good ones).

For N64, Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie, Donkey Kong 64, and Episode I - Racer.

 

PSX: Jackie Chan: Stunt Master, spyro games, legend of legaia, wild arms

 

ah, right. misread op.

 

Banjo is hardly underrated. Same with Zombies Ate My Neighbors, it's a game that I always hear mentioned.

Mischief Makers for the N64, and any Rare game in between DKC3 and Goldeneye (ie, Blast Corps and Jet Force Gemini).

 

Jade Cacoon for PS1 is a highly under-rated game. It's an RPG that was released right at the time when Pokemon was taking the world by storm, sadly the effects of Pokemon made Jade Cacoon practically invisible to many gamers.

Give it a try if you're a fan of Monster-RPG games.

 

A lot of games that were launched together with the Big Star ones (FF's, Pokemon's, etc).



Rock'n'Roll Racing \m/ (SNES)
Go to hell Top Gear 3


Most games by Falcon are good and underrated. To bad they never get translated.

 

For the SNES, I suggest you play:

Treasure Hunter G
Treasures of the Rudras
Madou Monogatari (but read my review on it first) -> http://forum.romulation.net/index.php?topic=9007.msg91252#msg91252
Gunple: Gunman's Proof
Der Langrisser
Mystic Ark
Lennus 2
Paladin's Quest
E.V.O: The search for eden
Robotrek

For the FamiCom:

Madara
Bio Senshi Dan
Hyaku no Sekai no Monogatari - The Tales on a Watery Wilderness
Wai Wai World 1 & 2
Akumajou Special - Boku Boku Dracula Kun
Kick Master
Radia Senki - Reimei Hen
Chuka Taisen
Destiny of an Emperor & its sequel Tenchi o Kurau II - Shokatsu Koumei Den
Dragon Scroll - Yomigaerishi Maryuu

And oh, you better know of RHDN & of applying IPS Patches to enjoy several of these Gems ^_A

 

well I'm back and HOLY SHIT

that's quite alot of games you suggested. did you beat em' all?

 

Im with you on that one, its fun evolving from a fish. Very good game.

Shadowrun on snes is one of my favourites, I dont know if its underrated though.

 

Some of 'em yes.

 

N64:

Super Smash Bros. (VERY surprised nobody suggested it...)

And many more...just the ones that came up to me

Yeah N64 is almost the only classic console I play.

 

That's not underrated and it's very well known.

 

Actually, just going to RHDN will open up your eyes to a treasure trove of underrated & unknown games.

 

It's not known well in my country, so I thought maybe in other country's too.
