Four Swords Adventures.
Nobody ever talks about that game.

Shadow the Hedgehog was a pretty good game despite a lot of people hating it.

Driver: San Francisco? I haven't played it, but the Steam reviews say I should.
Captain Crazy Chicken
The bad guys are pirates?
If I get THE DOG Island, I'm going to pick a girl Pomeranian and name her PrinceF Tanx after Game Grumps.
Tonic Trouble & Rocket: Robot on Wheels (N64) and;
Mario Party Island Tour (3DS) that game was way better than I expected even in single player and trumps Mario Party DS, I feel like this forum whined so hard about it because of a couple mixed reviews online, they missed out on some good Mario Party action. No online? Wow. Who cares? Get some friends to play with you losers.

Every MegaMan game that isn't one of the 8-bit Classic games or 16-bit X games, like seriously when was the last time you heard someone talk about a MegaMan game that wasn't one of the before mentioned games? Yeah sure you have the rare occasion where someone talks about MegaMan 7, X4 or one of the Legends games but beyond that it's as if every game after that never existed, I'm not hating on the older games but come on at least acknowledge the existence of the newer games, there not even bad games...well...except X6...and X7...

Vin Diesel's Wheelman.
It's like GTA except you are an invincible Vin Diesel walking around Spain jumping from car to car in a beautiful glitchfest. Possibly the best single-player party game. Just pass the controller around and see what kind of shenanigans break out.

Radiata Stories
Breath of Fire IV
Legend of Mana
Ghost Trick
Has GREAT voice acting, pretty good plot and had a good amount of comedy, and fun gameplay. Unfortunately didn't do well enough to get a sequel, since the ending feels unfinished (everything was great until the end) but it had a spiritual successor named Radiant Historia. I haven't finished that game though and it's not popular either...
Breath of Fire IV
REALLY good and deep plot, love the graphic/art style, music, and design, but unfortunately the game didn't age well (exploring maps can be annoying and there's a lot of mini games like FFVII). The localization was rushed and it censored a few things (mostly fanservice but it censored one part that was central to the plot...) Despite all it's fault, I highly recommend playing this game for the story.
Legend of Mana
Not sure if this is underrated but this is my favorite game of all time. Gameplay isn't really good tbh but there's a lot of features in the game to make up for it (golem making, growing fruits, breeding pets, etc) I love LOVE the music and the art style, it has a story book feel. Characters are charming and so is the story until you delve deeper into the arcs, which gets pretty good. Perfect game to play after a tiring day.
Ghost Trick
Not as famous as its sibling Ace Attorney, but really a must for DS owner. If you like AA then you'll like this one. Charming characters, pretty interesting plot, unique graphic/design and gameplay, Highly recommended!

I like to draw the characters of THE DOG Island Animal Crossing style.

Rune Factory 4! It's one of my FAVORITE games of ALL-TIME.
It's got animated cutscenes, all the characters are very cute and attractive, you can achieve "gay" relationships by changing your appearance to other characters (which you unlock by beating the game), the bachelors and bachelorettes are all pretty fun... I'm just surprised Rune Factory isn't even as popular as Harvest Moon!
Granted, 4 was the first Rune Factory game that you had the option to play as a female, so that prolly had something to do with it.
The game is really, really long. Like, I'm still not done with it, and I've been playing that game for four months, just about. There's just so much to do! You can farm, get married and raise a family, there's tons of random events with the other characters, there's the actual story which has three arcs, there's dungeons... you will probably NEVER run out of things to do, which can be a bonus or not, depending on how you look at it.
The gameplay is also pretty fantastic and I think that they did a WAY better job than Harvest Moon: A New Beginning did (the gameplay for that game sucks ASS. It's literally terrible.)
But yeah, Rune Factory 4 doesn't really get as much attention as it should and the fanbase is pretty small... ALSO THE COMPANY THAT MAKES RUNE FACTORY WENT BANKRUPT, WHICH IS EXTREMELY UPSETTING. We were going to get a 5, but there's been no word on it since the company went under.

Digimon Adventure PSP.
This game has been taunting me for the past 2 years now, and I still don't have it...curse you amazon.
I love the anime, and the game adaptation is pretty good. (Even has What-If's, Our War Game, and a huge mini-dungeon at the end of the game)

How abouth them Tales games? Tales of the Abyss, Tales of Vesperia, any kind of Tales. I really think they're underrated. I really love those games but the people who i tell them to don't really get why an RPG has battle elements and just go back to final fantasy because graphics and brand name. Final Fantasy has really gone down these days and XV is the only chance they can get their momentum back, but Tales man! Tales just gets better everytime!

Freaking Ape Escape.
I loved playing the first game as a kid (One of the first video games I ever played, actually), and the series is really really good.
Wish there's an Ape Escape 4. :c
