Anyone played the good old Looney Tunes games back in the day on the SNES, PS1, Game Boy, etc.? I enjoyed many of them such as Road Runner Death Valley Rally (SNES), Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle (GB), Looney Tunes (GB) Looney Tunes Alert! & Marvin Strikes Back (GBC), Bugs Bunny Rabbit Rampage (SNES) & Lost in Time (PS1), and Daffy Duck Marvin Missions (SNES). What's your favorite Looney Tunes video game? I wish they would make more Looney Tunes games as there aren't very many of them these days. Hopefully they'll make another one on the 3DS with the arrival of the new Looney Tunes Show.

I own and have played Bugs Bunny Rabbit Rampage, Porky Pig's Haunted Holiday, and Bugs Bunny Lost in Time. I've also played a tiny portion of Looney Tunes Collector: Alert! for the Game Boy Color when I was little. Looney Tunes Racing, from what I remember, was good, too. One time I played Desert Demolition starring Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote for the MegaDrive while visiting one of my cousins when I was little, and I recall enjoying it a lot. The first two aforementioned titles I first played in late 2009 (PPHH) and early 2011 (BBRR).

Top favorite: Bugs Bunny Rabbit Rampage
Least favorite: Bugs Bunny Lost in Time

The only Looney Tunes game I remember playing was a Basketball one that was kinda like NBA Jam with Looney Tunes characters. Other than that I never did play the other games.

I played most of the SNES games. I played Road Runner's Death Valley Rally, and beat it once (though it was probably using the difficult-to-enter 76 lives code). I kinda liked it, but I can see why many won't. It's easy to get lost in the large stages, Road Runner's only defense is a close-range pecking attack and super-speed (which is limited). Can't remember the game well enough to say if you could get stuck from running of turbo-juice or whatever it was called. And kinda annoying having to dodge Wile's traps while finding where you're supposed to go. I also remember the game (or at least my copy) appeared to have anti-Game Genie programming.
I did like Bugs Bunny Rabbit Rampage. It did try to have a variety of game play (like the wrestling fight and I remember there was a shooter level). I remember its graphics were pretty amazing at the time.
I remember enjoying Taz-Mania and renting it a lot when it first came out, but I tried playing it again years later and it wasn't as fun.
I had Looney Tunes for the original Game Boy, and liked the variety. When re-purchasing the game a couple years ago, I got the rarer GBC update. It seems the only update to the actual gameplay was new bonus games after each level. (I guess Nintendo didn't allow colorization-only re-releases?) Considering level 4 of the original was already a bonus game, it seems kinda silly that they effectively give you three bonus games in a row at that point on GBC.

I'll tell you a story. I had my NES hooked up in my parents bedroom and would frequently play it in there sitting on the edge of the bed with the TV on the dresser up high. I was playing Bugs Bunny Birthday Blowout which I rented from the store. It's a pretty decent platformer. It must have had unlimited continues because I played through really far in one sitting. By the time I reached Taz (the final boss) I was in my underwear playing with sweat dripping off my body as I danced around in frustration attempting to beat him. I believe I ended up having to pause the game and come back later with a fresh mind (and probably fresh underwear). I finally did beat him.

Sheep Raider is one of the goofiest games I ever played. I always loved the sheep dog, and hiding from him to snag sheep is pretty fun in that game, although it's short. Death Valley Rally and Taz Mania are the ones I played the most. Do the Tiny Toons games count?

I just played through Crazy Castle again last year, I love that game.

I remember a little bit of Road Runner's Death Valley Rally. I also rember it being hard as nails to but then again what wasn't for me around then? It was like a Sonic wannabe for the SNES except you had boost juice (actually bird seed) you had to keep your eye on. I also remember collecting carrots in Bug's Bunny Crazy Castle for the NES. Well, anyway safe to say I won't be adding any Looney Tunes games to my retro library. Beep! Beep!

I owned Sheep Raider for PS1 because I found it cheap. I remember hating it because of how difficult and slow it was (maybe it was just because I was young). Anyway, looking on those memories I don't really know if it was an objectionably bad game. Maybe one day I'll pop it in to see if I have a gem or just have more rage induced upon me.

I remember buying that Bugs and Lola bunny game along with the GB pocket and Mario land and really enjoyed it. I believe the Name was Operation Carrot Patch and the game lets you control the two rabbits. I don't know if it holds up well today, but I can say that it was my favorite game second only to Pokemon Yellow. The controls were tight and it was really challenging from what I can remember. other than that, the other looney toon games I vaguely remember playing were Bug's Crazy Castle, Daffy Duck and that Taz game on my Friend's GBC and the Tiny toon adventures on the Nes. They were alright I suppose.

Fancy a Karrot Cake?

Link-Hero Thanks for that tidbit, I never heard of this, or maybe I had back in the Nintendo Power days, not sure. So many Looney Tune games... Definite Sonic rip-off, Wowsa's! It looks better than Sonic though, so bright and colorful (total SNES fan here). Arriba! Arriba!

Pfft! If you think Road Runner's Death Valley Rally is a Sonic wannabe, then go watch Speedy Gonzales Los Gatos Bandidos on youtube. Its almost downright in copyright infringement territory.

Apparently someone else thought that too because there's a pirated version of the game with Sonic it.

Anyways the only Looney Tunes games I had was a Taz game for the Game Gear, a Taz game for the Gameboy, a couple of overhead Looney Tunes adventure games for the GBC and Space Jam for the Saturn.

What I'm surprised is that someone decided to take We're Back: A Dinosaur Story (which I believe was released in Europe under a few different license-swap variants) for the Game Boy, which wasn't wasn't a good game to begin with, and hack it into a Taz-Mania game.
(Taz-Mania 2 in the US and just Taz-Mania in Europe, since I guess Sunsoft's Taz was never released there?)

I've played the Tazmania games on the Genesis. Fun but annoying at times.

I played both Taz-Mania games for the Megadrive, and I also played Sylvester and Tweety in Cagey Capers for the Megadrive (which I think was my favourite Looney Tunes game of the lot - I only liked playing the first few levels, but it made me feel like I was actually in the cartoon!).
