@Tutoria

Really put off by the visuals of the PS1 game. I had a lot of fun with the PS2 version though.

the Joe and Mac games are fun

Rocky Rodent and Congos Caper both have a lot of charm to them

a lot of the Disney games from that era are good like Aladdin and The Lion King. For Aladdin its a completely different game on the SNES compared to the Genesis, but theyre both fun games.

@VampireCoyote Yeah, probably played the OG Joe and Mac game a couple dozen times. It's really fun. Dear god is it sexist though! It takes it to such an extreme that I have a hard time playing it now. I tried the sequel recently, even with save states it feels fucking impossible!

I'll look into Rocky and Congo.

Yeah, played the SNES Aladdin a dozen or so times. It's one my faves on the system. Can't stand the Genesis version. Aladdin using a sword doesn't change the fact that the sound quality is BAAAAAAAAD, and the fact that there's so sound effects for when you hit someone with your sword makes it feel like I'm hitting air. The latter of which has killed my immersion in so many games.

The Lion King is something that really should be played on the Genesis, as IIRC you can play the whole game on easy. Same thing for The Jungle Book.

"Bonkers!" is short but fun. I can definitely recommend "Joe & Mac 2", and the game that came before it, "Congo's Caper". You might also try looking into some others like "Super Widget" and "Super Adventure Island II". All of these are on the SNES.

"Rocket Knight Adventures" is also really good (my favorite game on the Genesis). It's never been re-released any any point, so I guess it might count as obscure. I want to recommend "High Seas Havoc" (same system), but that game can get obnoxiously difficult by the last few stages.

@FreezinIceKirby First of all, everything that you've mentioned absolutely counts as obscure, so good job there, no worries.

I'll look into Bonkers, so thanks.

Already covered Joe and Mac 2. Even with save states it's way too hard! I'll look into congo's caper and Super Widget. Super Adventure Island 2 I've played some of, IIRC I finished it once, but I have a very hard time avoiding damage for some reason. Mgiht give it anotther shot.

Rocket Knight was something someone else recommended in another topic. I played a lot of Sparkster and enjoyed it, but Rocket Knights music repels me, and as a result I've never finished the second level. Thanks for being honest about High Seas, too many good games that don't pull annoying curve balls difficulty bosses.
