Best somewhat oldschool games of all time

B3NJ1 · 06-5-2005, 01:03 PM

I was digging around some old discs and found a demo disc. Threw it in and saw a game called "brave fencer musashi" Awesome game and went a little under the radar. Anyone else know of some great games that aren't very well known?

Quick list.

1.Jumping flash
2.Motor Toon Grand Prix
3.Brave Fencer Musashi

I've played the Musashi demo. It was decent, but I dunno if I would have ever bought. Probably not, since I didn't. XD And oldschool =/= PS1. Old school = SNES and before. So, for some schweet oldschool games:

Crystalis
Gradius
Gauntlet (but only if you have more than 1 person :P)
Contra
Kirby (the gameboy one where you couldn't absorb powers = quite a challenge when I was a kid)
Super Famicon Wars (you've probably never played it because it's Japanese only, but it's friggin sweet)

and of course....

Parodius. XP

Musashi is fairly well known. A sequel for the PS2 came out recently.

Which sucked. I was very very dissapointed. I was a big fan of Brave Fencer Musashi.

It's funny you say Jumping Flash..

The game rocked, very overlooked

Donkey Kong Country was my first video game, and I have to say it's the most fun I've ever had in my life.

Like I have said many times before.

Contra.

That is the greatest game of all time.

Super Mario 64
