We all know how popular certain games such as Super Mario 64 and Kirby's Adventure are, but what about other games that aren't acknowledged as much? Share your thoughts here on games that you've personally tried that seems to go under the radar on the Virtual Console.

Ah, so you like Battle Lode Runner too, hm? I still need to get that when I have more points.

And I 100% agree on ST.

Oh and Ristar is awesome too but I have not downloaded yet but a awesome game I used to own.

And yes StarTropics is a little gem sadly people Ingore it as a "Zelda Clone" which it very much is not.

CHEW MAN FU ON THE TURBOGRAFX / PC ENGINE.
It's an awesome puzzler with really smooth controls, a fun two player football mode, a full level editor and 500 levels, and is a great, innovative take on the old "get the ball on the same coloured space" genre.
At only 600 points, it's well worth a purchase and is easily my most played VC game to date.

3) Pokemon Snap (N64)
What can I say, when I was in 6th grade, Pokemon were the absolute ish. I watched the show, had both carts, and used to sell lvl 100 Pokemon in the back of my school for lunch money. So, needless to say, my 11 year old self bought this game even though it involves zero catching, raising, or fighting. What I got, however, was one of the more unique titles available for N64, with an on-the-track style gameplay that can make for relaxation or a great challenge, depending on what mood you're in that day. Take your pick, chill and get what photos you can, or go all out and try to get those super rare hard to figure out photos.

2) Space Harrier (SMS)
This game gets dissed all day long, back and forth, left and right. But to me, this is one of the most addictive substances available on the market. I would recommend it to those who enjoy arcady, frantic, shoot everything that moves, score based style games.

1) Life Force
I'm not sure how overlooked this one really is, but it's an easy choice as the only simultaneous 2 player shooter available for the VC. Watch out, tho, its easily one of the hardest games I've had the pleasure of getting massacred by.

Play nice Mr Pot, and stop calling the Kettle black! Seriously guys, there is nothing wrong with having a difference of opinions - why not discuss the reasoning behind them rather than getting grumpy? Spread the love and all that

I think Magician Lord is a bit overlooked. I enjoy the challenge and action a lot, but I´ve heared many dislike the game. I even prefer it over Super Ghouls ´n Ghosts!

Magician Lord gets irritating at around level 4 though since, you get swarmed by enemies faster than you can kill them.

what is wrong with you? you can have an opinion and i cant? think what you want, i dont care. i wish i overlooked it, myself. i can say that! sorry if you dont agree.

and if it has a 'massive fanbase' then it is NOT 'overlooked'
