Forget the Classics! What Sleeper hits do you want on the Virtual Console?

THAT'S FREAKY ! ! !

I was just thinking about bringing it up!

I was following the development of Sigma Star Saga, thinking it would be a similar game, but it kinda flopped...

I miss the old zelda meets shmup gameplay...

I wonder if it would still hold up today...?

My god, people are bringing up A LOT of shooters in this topic!

Alright, Mr. Antonius...

I see your Guardian Legend, and raise you one: Metal Marines... AND... a

Golgo 13 !

Beat THAT hand!

:P

Cabal-nes co-op shooter that i really liked back in the day

P.T.O.-snes/gen historic naval strategy game...it actually made it to the ps2 but sans everything that made it a P.T.O game

Crytalis-nes action game really loved this game

We've seen Sonic 1, 2, 3 and Knuckles over and over again...

What about Chaotix...? I'd love to see THAT released on a VC...!

What else besides? What classic sleepers do you want to see again...?

How about Chakan?

Cool Spot?

Faxanadu.

Jewel Master or Spell Caster (for Genesis)?

ANY of the classic Renovation games! (Valis, Arcus Odyssey).

E-Swat.

Rocket Knight Adventures...?

Zombies Ate my Neighbors.

C'mon! Let's get a list going here! (ANY classic consoles! The more obscure the better!)

Very well, I'll counter you with a Destiny of an Emperor and Uninvited and even a Deja Vu for good measure.

Strider on gen/MD... that game is a true classic of platforming action, I loved everything about that game, the music was cool, and haunty! andthe graphics for the time were sharp and colourful. 

Cool Spot can burn in hell!:twisted:

OH... And Shadow Dancer on MD, Man... that game was mad!  Yuzo Kushiro music, a cool wolf-dog pet, ninja's!  OH MY GOD that game was ace.  And if I remember correctly, it didn't score too well in "mean machines" when it was released?!

Here's a REAL oldie, Target Renegade on ZX spectrum... probably the first side scrolling beat-'em-up I ever played, took for ever to load, you older guys will remember the frustration of using tapes to load things...ZZZZZZZZZZZZZXXXXXXXXXXXXXXCH! Bip! BLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPPP! SCCRRRUNNNCH! Bip!  When you finanlly got Renegade to load it ruled, 2-player co-op, single player, staple girl needs saving by 2 guys beating lots of people/thugs/whores up storyline!  AWESOME stuff!  An up date or remake is needed here, as I don't particularly see anone buying a game that looks like pink on poo!

Soliel.

Story of Thor.

Terranigma.

I'd really like to see Secret of Mana and sequals released on VC... I still have SoM on my Snes, but the sequals were also another set of games that never made it to the U.K.:(

Oh, how could I not bring up these gems:

• Blaster Master
• Clash at Demonhead
• Jackal
• Kid Icarus
• Rygar
• the original TMNT

Streets of Rage...as stated many times.  Needs generic egypt style hand dancing as per the originals.  Big fat guys that blow fire is also required.  NO guns except for the last boss.

Kid Chameleon...I don't remember doing this level last time...?

Mutant League Football...I don't care if it's not by EA, I want football, monsters and deadly stadiums (bonus if it's 3 down goodness)

Rocket Knight Adventures...just reinforcing what others said.  I think my favourite part of that game was watching how the background layers moved (and boss fights).

Mickey Mouse and the Castle of Illusions...Music + Insanity

Oh, how could I not bring up these gems:

• Blaster Master
• Clash at Demonhead

I see your Destiny of an Emperor, Uninvited, Deja Vu, Blaster Master, Clash at Demonhead, Jackal, Kid Icarus, Rygar and original TMNT, and I raise you:

Batman by SunSoft, Willow by CapCom, Rush n Attack, RC Pro-Am, BattleToads, Solstice and Equinox (by Sony... :shock: ), The Immortal by EA, Athena by SNK AND errrrrrr...

HA!

KARNOV... the fire-breathin' Russian...!

Top that Mr. Smarty-Pants!

An autographed, special, limited-edition copy of Phantasy Star 3...!

Yay!

:twisted:

:lol:

Yeah, you asked for that one... :D

Someone, somewhere, finally had to do it... 8)

Now, back to the topic at hand...

WHY hasn't anyone mentioned:

Cyber Stadium BaseWars...?

The single-best, most-worthwhile Videogame Baseball game IN EXISTANCE ! ! !

I'm dealing with amateurs here... really... *sigh* :roll:

:P

Lest we forget...

Populous

Out of this World

and...

...

...

...drumroll please...

...

...

...a game that shouldn't need any introduction... but does because it was released to the US before we developed any good taste in SRPG's...

...

...

WarSong!

...And, with that, I claim ownage for all eternity as the forumite with the best taste in classic/sleepers games forever and all time... Case closed...

( Unless, of course, someone else has something better to throw into the mix! :wink: )

Ah, sweet, sweet, videogame bliss...

I truly think I am the only person in the US to have purchased, played and LOVED this game...!

I was just reminded of this game a few days ago, City Connection, I loved that game.dvader654

Ya know, I just looked up the game and the box looked familar... Other than that, I have NO RECOLLECTION of the game itself...

Weird, I very rarely DO NOT know a game... Hmmm... :question:

Robocop, the original arcade version.

Gryzor - before it was contra

Hybrid Heaven, great combat system and story

Wrestle Waaaar!!! Arr!

That Tiny Tunes gane.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - The first two NES one, but the third would be good also, but I prefer the first two.

Flashback!!Schillinger

Flashback like the game? Or you had a flashback from all this memories? :lol:

Just kidding. Hey! I remembered The Journeyman Project!

[QUOTE="Schillinger"]Flashback!!SteelAttack

I am an idiot than but I mispelled Tiny Toons, so if there is a game called Tiny Tunes, than we are talking about different. I honestly only played one tiny toons game and it was an adventure.

Another game that I want it to be remake is this SNES game, in which you play some sort of devil.. i honestly can't go any farther than that, beside it was colored in either blue or purple, and there was some nice gliding mechanics.


Toomba or something like that. That 2d/3d platformer ps game. I never played it myself but i saw my friend played it and was fun.
dee_unlm1t3d

Feeling that flashback love..:D

And what about SPEED BALL!?

Krustys super funhouse.(I remember quite liking this when I was younger?)

Cadillacs and Dinosaurs.

The Punisher.

Fatal Fury.

GYNOUG!(Again, this game was fantastic back in the day)

Toki. Arcade version.

I say again, NiGHTS, Burning Rangers, Panzer Dragoon, Shinobi. I'll think of some more.:D

cant forget about Duck Tales and Kid NikiOneWingedAngeI

Ha! Some Radical Ninja action! Cool!

Although, the guy with the huge head and big puffy cheeks kinda freaked me out a little...

Ya' know Duck Tales would be cool, but I think QuackShot would be even cooler!

Toons was awesome, regardless. I'm pretty sure Treasure (or the guys who eventually formed Treasure after leaving Konami) was responsible for that game...

...and it shows!

The other game you are referring to I BELIEVE is either Gargoyles Quest or Demon's Crest... One was NES the other SNES... I forget which is which... And, I am ashamed I haven't added them to this topic yet, myself.

The were Metroidian style games, starring the Devil character from the Ghouls n Ghosts games, and they were FLIPPIN' INCREDIBLE ! ! ! I would LOVE CapCom to bring those to the VC or even bring back the series altogether!

If you look at my ratings, Metroid, Symphony of the Night, and games of that nature are at the top, so I would be ALL OVER either a port or new version, for sure!

Do you mean THIS game?

If so, you get the "Good Taste" award of the day...! :D

Someone gets a star and a cookie if he/she can name this other awesome CapCom title:

X-Men Mutant Apocalypse  (SNES)

Sweet game, my favorite is the Psylocke level for obvious reasons:D

Wow! You actually played HH, GG?

I tried it and kinda got turned off by it...

If they re-release N64 games and can improve on the blurry, who-smeared-vasoline-in-my-eyes, graphics, I would be all for re-exploring missed sleepers!

I hear sooo much about this game! It was never released in the US, so I never got a chance to play it. I hope they bring it to our (US) VC now! I believe they said they would be doing things like that, right?

I am pretty sure I heard they will be bringing Sin and Punishment, so why not SNES games too!

Here's hoping! :shock:
