Yeah, pretty much any franchise is off the table here. They never stop...even though they really should(how many lifetimes have Mario, Link, Megaman and Samus lived?).
Chrono Trigger- This RPG game to me is the defintion of RPG. It still holds up to this very day on how much of an awesome RPG game it is. Hey Square! Quit milking final fantasy to death and make something outta this will ya???
Ducktales- Who here remembers this game for the NES? It was gold! This was when most of the video games that were based off of Disney material was made by Capcom. Plus the game had awesome music, do I even need to explain the music? This, and the sequel to Ducktales was awesome. I would love to see a remake of the game by Warren Spector with added things to make the game better.
Conker’s Bad Fur Day- What happens when you take the clichéd cutesy animal stuff that’s too sweet for anyone to look at and mix it with adult humor inspired by South Park? You get this….This game was the bomb. Arguably in my opinion Rare’s masterpiece. The humor in this game was solid, the music is awesome, and chris seavor should be considered as the modern mel blanc for voicing a lot of the male characters in this game. Also, Mircrosucks. Damn you to hell for canceling the development of Other Bad Fur day. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXbxeGudmiI
The Neverhood- even though I have only played a little bit of the game, I have always adored this game. I have even enjoyed this more than Earthworm Jim, and that’s saying a lot since its from the same guy who created the Earthworm Jim series. I don’t even know where the hell to start with this game. the music, the cartooniness, its just downright awesome. Curse the rise of First Person Shooters to make this go so low in obscurity. Also, Doug tennapel needs to get a ton of dough to get the movie off the ground. Considering that he stated that the movie of The Neverhood got canned only because of finaclial reasons. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJ0mu7rhNpA
Leisure Suit Larry Love for sail- Seeing how we are getting a new Leisure Suit Larry game from the original designer that is a remake of the first game. I think we might be able to get a few people interested in the original series of Leisure Suit Larry. Seeing how this was the then last game of Larry designed by Al Lowe, it’s a good way to end off the series. I enjoyed the cartoony animation, the jazz music of the game, as well as the humor. Seeing how this was out during the time when FPS games were at a rise, it’s a mystery to me on how something like Love for sail would end up in obscurity due to how good it looks. If the remake of the first game does well enough, I hope it would reconsider in bringing back the development of Lust in Space.
Um Jammer Lammy- Im seriously surprised nobody even mentioned this game. WAAAAY before we even had Gutiar hero or even Halo, we had Um Jammer Lammy and Parappa the Rapper. This game rocked a whole lot during my childhood. The thing that made both Lammy and Parappa awesome was the music. I only have a few songs from the game on my ipod, but its that good of a soundtrack of a video game.
World of illusion starring Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck- One of the best Sega games Ive ever played. I think this one is very underrated for most of the Disney games that were produced at the time. Since this was a sequel to castle of illusion, I’m a bit surprised that there isn’t any references to the castle of illusion in this game. At least the 3DS game of Epic Mickey II will be a follow up to the world of illusion series.
Billy hatcher and the giant egg- Why do I mention this? Because it’s a game from the makers of Sonic the hedgehog that is doing something creative over milking the hedgehog to death. Billy Hatcher 2 is long overdue sega.
This game was so funny and Different from everything else I've played. I remember playing it at my cousin's house and then took forever to find a copy of it at the time. I know it's on the Wii classics and everything but it's seems like it is rarely mentioned anymore. Still can play toejam and earl on a lazy day.
Gameplay was kind of awkward, but I'm simply DRAWN to games with completely stupid premises, like beating a stomping severed foot by dashing your tongue at it repeatedly.
I don't care what you say about this game. It taught me how to play Go Fish, therefore it is truly the holiest of all.
Actually a very fun game once you adapt to its controls. Certainly not as drastic as Nerd claims it to be.
Played this game for years and I never knew Mappy was a policemouse. Hm.
Damn this one is one of the most enjoyable Spider-Man titles of all.
Surprisingly, I haven't played this one yet, although I loved all of the other games in the Donkey Kong Country series.
It's really not like that series at all. It's like Banjo-Kazooie and Tooie, but with far more categories of things to collect to beat the game in elaborate ways for elaborate reasons. It's very polarizing for this reason, as many people felt it went completely overboard in terms of collectathon platforming. I loved it personally. It's a very lengthy, difficult game, but really fun, memorable, and charming.

Ah, interesting. I liked Banjo-Kazooie and Tooie, so you have me intrigued. I'll have to try the game out.
Comments
I just played that. Stone Cold is the women's champion now .
It's one of the best action adventure games (if not games in general) ever made.
I love, love, loved this game back in the day. I played it so much. Thought it was better than Civ 2. They made a sequel, but it wasn't as good.
Or Loco Motion as its known in the US
The real Loco-Motion!

Yeah the second one was fun with mimicking the beat patterns...
And it was actually pretty good as well.
(Easy, but fun to co-op on)
Of course, the only game I didn't play was Blake Stone: Planet Strike. This should not be forgotten too.
Various not-so-popular PC games from my childhood(excluding Blake and Police Quests):
Forever etched In The Hall Of The Mountain King in my brain.
I didn't care if I learned shit, I enjoyed them.
Gameplay was kind of awkward, but I'm simply DRAWN to games with completely stupid premises, like beating a stomping severed foot by dashing your tongue at it repeatedly.

And this last one, most people hate, but I enjoyed the **** out of it. Plus it gets bonus points for having Mara Jade.

The home version which was made solely by LucasArts was also fun, especially the Dreamcast version.
Haha Midnight Rescue. Loved it when the Robot's clue was "Cut the Comedy." Edutainment strikes again.

Nah I don't hate it, just disliked that element of it. I actually remember loving it quite a but at first.
If I remember correctly, a DK fan wrote that as a Nintendo competition to see who could write the best theme song.
Not sure how forgotten TWEWY really is, but I rarely hear anyone talk about it anymore.
Also, this.
I loved this game, but no-one elver seems to talk about it.
Considering that there's talk of a sequel and the main character is making an appearance in Kingdom Hearts 3D, I'd say it's not too forgotten.
Oh, and a Star Wars game that deserves honorable mention is Battle for Naboo. Mostly because Jar Jar Binks gets squished by the N64 logo.
