Unknown/underrated amazing games.

I'm not sure how 'unknown' it is, but I *loved* Solatorobo: Red the Hunter. The grab 'n' smash gameplay mechanics made the boss battles a blast, and the characters were all really unique and fun. Plus the landscape has a distinct Ghibli-like steampunk feel to it. Plus, the second part of the games story is just perfect.

I'd say Advanced Wars is pretty underrated. Along with Blazblue. I think Blazblue turns a lot of people off because there are so many discs for the storyline and there is a learning curve to fighting games, but I really enjoy it. ^^ Valkyria Chronicles is also super underrated.
 
Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale is one of my favorite games of all time. It combines cute graphics, interesting characters, a storyline, postgame content, an item shop's micromanagement as well as dungeon crawling rpg action all in a neat, low-priced combo that offers literally countless hours of gameplay in several different gaming modes and difficulties...
 
Billy Hatcher and the Giant egg, an amazing platformer on the gamecube, I played that game to death as a kid, there needs to be a sequel!
 
About Every Super Monkey Ball Game. They're New Games Aren't As Good As The Older Ones, But It's Just So Cool To See Monkeys Rolling In Balls Trying To Complete The Level.
 
Binding of Issac isn't talked about often, but maybe because it's a pretty old game (it came out in 2011) but I still love it... It will make you pull your hair out, though.
 
Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door for the GC.

I don't see many people know what it is, its a really great game!
 
The Rhythm Heaven series is ridiculously fun, but it's pretty unknown to a lot of people. I wish people would give those games a chance. I'm crossing my fingers for a new Rhythm Heaven game on the 3DS!
 
Okami and Okamiden. They don't get enough credit for the amount of effort put into them.
