Lol I'm bad at starting threads, they never catch on
If you have one you don't think anyone knows, you could offer a description of what the game is.

For me, Warioware D.I.Y. on the DS and Go Vacation for the Wii.
D.I.Y. is basically a combination of typical Warioware stuff and Mario Paint. Within certain limits, you can make your own minigames, tidbits of music (called "Records"), and 4-panel comic strips. I spend my time on it with the record function because it's interesting to play with.

Go Vacation is like Wii Resort with anime-esque characters who have their own customizable "villas." It's like Wii Ski, but expanded tenfold. You play a bunch of games, do quests for people, travel around looking for hidden things, and in the process you get achievements and "keys" which you can spend on house furniture sets and exteriors. They also go towards unlocking special clothes for your character, and there are tons of easter eggs. You can ride different vehicles that you can do stunts with, have a dog follow you around, have other characters as well as Miis follow you around, it's addictive and it would be perfect if only there was an online multiplayer function.
 
Tank 1990/Battle City. I used to have it some some hack cartridge I bought ages ago.. don't think I have but it's a fun tank game, can be annoying as hell sometimes.
 
Mischief Makers on the N64. I'm pretty sure it was never popular or well known and it definitely isn't now, I'm pretty much the only person who ever mentions it. It was just a pretty fun platformer with some weird characters.

Wario Ware D.I.Y. was my life for about a year! It was so fun creating your own games and showing them off to others! Especially when they are like WHOA HOW DID U DO DIS!? Also i like a Spongebob game on the Gamecube a lot... can anybody name some gc Spongebob games because i only know the Dutch name of it.

But yh it was real good ^^

Battle for Bikini Bottom, Revenge of the Flying Dutchman, The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, Lights, Camera, Pants!, Creature from the Krusty Krab?

Here is a list of all of them, however.

The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, Lights, Camera, Pants! This one i guess! You have to do good in several mini games and become a movie star or something, i never cared about the story tho, i always played the mini games because they were so fun!

Stupid Order Up! CPU's win every time! I always liked Machine Breakdown (I think its called that) That unicycle minigame (The one where you do tricks), and some others.

Is the machine breakdown the one where the power cuts off and you gotta get it working constantly? The bike one is good too but i like the race mini game and the one where you have to hover trough the volley ball nets the most!

Glad you found it, hopefully. :) Talking about more obscure piece, I remember this disk/MS-DOS game.. it was pretty educational but I remember maths with seahorses and shrimps on billboards and some penguin fishing game. I've been trying to look all over databases but I haven't found it since, nor have I found the original disk it was on (I think my cousins have it)... It was loads of fun back in the 90s I tell you.

Ohh that sounds like a situation i have with an old game!
 
Yeah I hate when you can't find. Most of the times the games are pretty known but this seems to be either waaaay to obscure or released in a limited are (Sweden, Scandinavia maybe?) or it's just me who remembers too little.

Anyways, to get back on topic. Super Mario Land games for Gameboy. I currently only own the second one (6 Golden Coins) and while it is pretty easy (except for the last stage where you encounter the boss) it's loads of fun. I remember the first time I beat the last bosses (Star zone and Wario) I felt proud :)

I JUST CAN NOT BEAT WARIO OMFGGG
 
I JUST CAN NOT BEAT WARIO OMFGGG

I did th a few times in the game but unless you set the easy mode or get lucky with power-ups I understand. IMO the stage itself are more annoying than Wario; if you know his movement/shooting pattern you can avoid it. Star zone boss were harder for me (the spaceship dude).
 
There was a really neat game I played when I was really little for the PC, and I'm wondering if anyone remembers it. Mixed Up Mother Goose! :)


You had to go around and fix all the fairy tale characters' stories by giving them the items they needed to make their story work. I played it a lot, it was very fun and relaxing.

Arkanoid, specifically the MS-DOS version. It was the best version of all the copies and versions that was out back then and I still kinda miss playing it a lot.

Also, unless you are the same age or older than me I hardly see people mention it...
