I love how unique MMV is on the Game Boy! Gonna have to look into overclocking it though haha, I played for the first time in a while recently and forgot how bad the slowdown is. Also not a fan of Dr. Light being so passive-aggressive by expecting Mega Man to fight off Wily’s robots but still making him save up to buy his own weapon/suit upgrades :p

Is Wiz n Liz a kiddy game? I almost bought it since some of their characters make a cameo in the mighty Puggsy game, but thought it looked questionable in terms of enjoyability…

It’s hard to describe what Wiz n Liz is. It sort of reminded me of the 1983 Mario Bros. game but with many diverse levels and weird looking bosses. It may be worth looking up a gameplay video to better see what it plays like.

The Guardian Legend (Nintendo Entertainment System)
Legacy of the Wizard (Nintendo Entertainment System)
Strider (Nintendo Entertainment System)

Strider (Sega Genesis)

Strider (Sony Playstation three)

Another underrated game that I forgot about is Mole Mania on the Game Boy.

-Maximum Carnage & Separation Anxiety (SNES/SMD)
-Altered Beast (SMD)
-Zoom! (SMD)
-Stimpy’s Invention (SMD)

oh so many, but here’s one you must try

Zen Intergalactic ninja – Gameboy
insmouth – Virtual boy
Duke Nukem Xbox 360

This game is ridiculously fun, especially given the simplicity of both the graphics and gameplay. Thanks for sharing!

Sorry to double post, but I just realized nobody’s mentioned the Lost Vikings series, yet. If you like puzzle-platforming, you have to check it out (but play the SNES version of LV2, because the Windows/Saturn/PS1 version – with the cringe-worthy title “Norse by Norsewest” – has hideous 90’s pre-rendered “NURBS” graphics and very cheesy voice acting – some of my favorite voice actors, but terrible dialog that’s bad enough just reading it in the SNES version…

Blizzard, if you’re reading this, I (and literally dozens of other LV fans :-P) have been waiting decades for a remake/sequel, with online and local (split-screen) multiplayer! Put down the Warcraft for a little while and get to work! Actually, it doesn’t even have to be about vikings; make another Warcraft spin-off game with LV gameplay and I’d be fine with that. Bonus points if you make it for 3DS 😉

The Daze Before Christmas (SMD)
I had a really good time playing this one, too bad its super rare.

Can never go wrong with the MegaMan games
