Great games nobody played but they really need to
Eternal Darkness(GC) and Lost Odyssey(360) are the first two to spring to mind. YOUR TURN.

The Neverhood is one of my all-time favorites and it never caught on. Claymation adventure game by most of Shiny's Earthworm Jim team, and it's fantastic.

Fire Pro Wrestling (GBA).
Didn't sell that well but the 2nd one sold even worse which made Spike cancel the entire series in the US until Fire Pro Wrestling Returns on the PS2. That one also sold badly which is why the series doesn't have any more games released here (XBLA version still hasn't shown up). |

Lunar: Silver Star Story, Chrono Cross (Most likely due to Final Fantasy 9 being released around the same time), and Incredible Crisis.

It's great. once you get to the 4th disk (no idea if you did) the game gets off the rail and opens up allowing you to fight several (6 i think) optional bosses most with optional dungons. the rewards are epic and until you hit level 80ish the challenge is worthy. and obviously the story is great in the game. def worth finishing.

I always like Legendary Wings for NES. Dont think that was a popular game at all but it provided me with a weekend of fun back in the day.

Eternal Darkness was what immediately popped into my mind when I saw the thread title. Easily in my top 10 games of all time.

The US port of Firepro actually well exceeded expectations. There hasn't been another Firepro because of the decline of pro wrestling in Japan. Wrestle Kingdom 2 was the last wrestling game to come out, and that was in 2006 or something.

Lost Odyssey was a great game but one that I never did get round to finishing, will definitely make time to do so in the future.
Another good JRPG is Resonance Of Fate, it certainly wasn't the greatest in terms of the story but it had an interesting world and battle system going for it and is worth picking up should you find it quite cheap. One game I always give a shout out to is Psi Ops back on the PS2. It was a game in which you played a man who had been given psychic powers via experimentation. It was one of the first games I noticed to really take advantage of using the environment. It had a good story, great gameplay but for some reason just never got the acclaim I feel it deserved. Someone mentioned Eternal Darkness, won't go into any detail on that but will just tell people to play it. |

Phantom Dust (Xbox).
Game was fantastic. And no one ever touched it. Also, Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth (Xbox/PC) was great. |

Tombi! (or Tomba!, depending on where you live.) for the PS1. Fantastic and colourful game. It's a 2D platformer that uses 2D sprites for characters but the world is made of 3D models.
It's got a RPG style to it with you gaining XP, talking to people to get quests and collecting better gear. Skullmonkeys. A claymation 2D platformer for the PS1 by the Neverhood guys and starring the same character, Klayman. It has a dark look to it but it's actually pretty funny. |

Also, Skies of Arcadia (DC) with a remake for the Gamecube. I only played the remake, as I never had a Dreamcast. The GC version adds quite a few things, including a bit of backstory that's probably worth it. Sadly, the main characters and bad guy are as flat as Cloud and Sepiroth, but the game packs a cool magic/combat system, a decent story, fun exploration (except a couple of discoveries) and a decent amount of playtime. Oh, and ship combat, which you don't see much in RPGs. This last bit wasn't as common as it could have been, though. This is another game I reeeeeeally want to have a sequel. |

I don't feel Snow Bros. gets the recognition it deserves. Same with the first two Oddworld games.

Ghost Trick
It's a simply amazing piece of writing and a localisation job from the guys who did Phoenix Wright with fantastic animation, art style and gameplay. I finished it last year on DS and was basically shouting at the screen. It's just come out on iPhone/iPad too and you get the first 3 chapters for free to try it out. |
