Little King's Story definitely deserves a lot more recognition, amazing game.

Looking forward to: Mario & Luigi: Dream Team

I'm not sure, but I'm sure we have a thread like this somewhere...

Anyhow, I'll go ahead and say Family Tennis 3D (as far as recent memory is concerned). I guess it probably got overshadowed by MTO, but is a fantastic game in it's own right. It hasn't had a bad review yet, charming anime visuals, addicting, & is only $7 (eShop title). I suggest anyone who likes arcade style tennis games to give this a DL.

Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword. I don't know if it's really underrated, but I don't hear many people talk about it, so I assume so. It beats out both DS Zeldas in terms of touch dominated action, looks gorgeous, has some bosses that are a genuine challenge, and is overall one of the best games on the DS, IMO.

Liberation Maiden: It is a new game, and people have reviewed it 50/50 (it is difficult to play if your a lefty)
but it is a awesome game. It has the Lylat Wars feeling to it. :)

Off the top of my head.. Xenoblade Chronicles, Radiant Historia, Kid Icarus: Uprising, and every Fire Emblem game.

I used to travel the stars, then I discovered Earth, and these incredibly addicting things called 'Video Games.'

I like how people are rating some of the highest rated games released on the Wii and DS here.

Need to change the thread title to "games that were highly rated but sold terribly."

Sonic 1 on the Master System, probably my favourite Sonic game actually. Sonic 2 MS however is a totally different story...

Muramasa also deserves more recognition as well. Also Awesomenauts, Kingdoms of Amalur and Ghost Recon Shadow Wars (that 3DS-launch strategy game no one played)

I Loved Shadow Wars! The story didn't do much but the gameplay was fantastic.

On topic: Lost magic was one of my favorite games on DS for a long time.
AW Days of Ruin should be played more as well!

this seems like a nice thread to capture attention for games. anyhow, fire emblem is really fun.

which is better? to be born a hero, or to be born evil and overcome that nature?

I've been wanting to try Billy Hatcher for a long time. They ask about 12-15 euros for it on ebay, Probably worth it right?
I finally found my GB Micro when cleaning my desk, GBA is one of my favorite handhelds. Epic GBA games i found next to it:

  • Riviera the promised land
  • Astro Boy
  • Shining Soul
  • Wario Land 4

If we're talking about actual underrated games, I think KI:U was underrated, as well as Metroid: Other M.

KI:U got 9/10 but it just seemed that not too many people are super into it like me.
I actually kinda liked Flingsmash, even though it only got a 3/10. Wasn't the best, but still underrated. I would've given it a good 6 or 7 out of 10.

NLife isn't the only site that reviews games you know.
