Mine has to be Dragon Quest: Rocket Slime, a DS spin off of the Dragon Quest series that sees you playing as a slime operating a tank and rescuing the people from your town. You run around the overworld, collecting items to use as ammunition and saving money to upgrade your tank. The art and music are just as great as you'd expect from the Dragon Quest series. It made fantastic use of the DS's dual screens. It's also written for a younger audience, so a lot of it is just really silly and fun! Try it out for sure, I'm so sad there's no sequel :(

A few that are favs for me that no one ever talks about:

Forgotten worlds on Genesis Wild arms on playstation Tokyo extreme racer zero on playstation 2

Wild Arms was such a great game. It just had the worst timing ever for being released. I wish they would port it to mobile.

Yeah, was early on the PS1 so didn't get much exposure, then got overshadowed by the juggernaut that is FF7. WA2 took a while to come out, which is a shame.

I have a copy of wild arms 2 sitting in my living room but I’ve never played it. Maybe tomorrows the day

Tokyo Extreme Racer Zero was my jam on ps2! Has there been anything like it since? Racing through the real highways of tokyo with 'normal' cars to weave through was such a cool concept.
