Kirby's Dream Course is a mini-golf simulator with a unique Kirby twist. It was released by HAL Laboratory for the SNES and later became available in the Wii Shop's Virtual Console.
Sort of a spin-off game to the Genesis game known as Rocket Knight Adventures. A Genesis game was released at the same time but was a more direct sequel.
Jazz Jackrabbit is a platform game developed by Epic MegaGames (now known as Epic Games). It was released in 1994 for the PC. Jazz Jackrabbit was created by Cliff Bleszinski and Arjan Brussee, and inspired by classic console games such as Super Mario Bros and Sonic The Hedgehog.
A side-scrolling adventure game starring the eponymous arcade hero as he sets out to fetch things for his family. Instead of controlling him directly, players help guide the autonomous hero using a slingshot.
A Korean action RPG staring Mirinae Software's mascot, Samtong.
Direct sequel to the previous Rocket Knight Adventures game for Genesis. Not to be confused with the SNES game with the same title.
Play as Sonic or Tails to chase down Doctor Robotnik/Eggman once again. This time Sonic must also face a new enemy, Knuckles the Echidna.
The fourth game in the Legend of Zelda series and the first one to appear on a handheld. Link is trapped on Koholint Island, and to escape he must wake the Wind Fish by finding the Eight Instruments of the Sirens.
Fido Dido is a cartoon character made by Sue Rose and Joanna Ferrone. Fido was licensed as a mascot to PepsiCo in the late 80s, and appeared on stationary in the 90s before becoming attached primarily to the 7-Up brand, preceding Cool Spot.
An Amiga platformer that was later ported to PC and SNES. Oscar is on a quest to recover his namesake trophies from the sets of various Hollywood movies.
A baseball game featuring heavy product placement and the NECO "Dolucky", the (at the time) mascot of Zoom Inc. An American version titled "Zoo Ball" was scheduled by Technos but was canceled.
Kirby meets pinball on the Game Boy.
When a mysterious billionaire sponsors an international robot fighting tournament only to reprogram the eight finalists to help him conquer the world, it's up to Mega Man to foil his plans in the last NES installment of the original Mega Man series.
Sonic the Hedgehog's sole adventure for the Sega CD, as he travels through time to save the fate of Little Planet from Dr. Robotnik's army of robots (including Sonic's new adversary: his metallic doppelganger).
After Rainbow Islands and Parasol Heroes came this more direct sequel to Bubble Bobble, returning the gameplay to bubble-blowing dragon action.
A wise-cracking anthromorphic bobcat tries to stop enemy aliens from stealing Earth's supply of yarn balls in this 2D platformer by Accolade. What could paws-ibly go wrong?
The third and final core Bonk game for the franchise's home system, the TurboGrafx-16. Bonk is able to increase and decrease his size with special candy power-ups, allowing him to reach new areas.
Dizzy is once again forced to tangle with Zaks in the first Dizzy game to be released on video game consoles. Find items, solve puzzles, collect stars, and leap over dangers in this adventure/platformer hybrid from Codemasters.
Explore the world as Spot, the tiny mascot of the 7 Up brand of soft drinks, and rescue its fellow Spots in this 2D platformer.
Kirby's sole NES adventure introduces his signature ability to copy the abilities of special enemies (by swallowing them), as he must retrieve the seven broken Star Rod pieces to restore everyones' dreams.
Another game based on the adventures of 7-UP's mascot, Spot. Known in Europe as McDonaldland.
A very colorful fast paced platformer. Like Superfrog, Zool was destined to rival Mario and Sonic as the Amiga's own icon. The game features extensive product placement from Chupa Chups.
The first game to star the iconic pink puffball Kirby, who is on a quest to recover Dream Land's stolen food supply from the gluttonous King Dedede.
Take control of one of four heroes, led by the titular superhero Captain Commando, and take on super-powered criminals in this futuristic 2D brawler by Capcom.
The third installment in the Zelda series makes a return to the top-down 2D gameplay of the original. Link must travel between the Light and Dark Worlds in order to set things right in the kingdom of Hyrule.
The 1991 sequel to Bonk's Adventure on the TurboGrafx-16. Bonk continues to bop dinosaurs in his quest to restore the moon.
When a mad physicist creates an army of Techbots and lays waste to a populated city, it's up to self-proclaimed hero Duke Nukem to foil his plans of conquering Earth in this side-scrolling platformer for PCs.
The third part of Taito's Bubble Bobble saga, after Bubble Bobble and Rainbow Islands. Like Bubble Bobble, it is a single-screen platformer.
When a peacekeeping effort between Dr. Light and Dr. Wily go haywire, it's up to Mega Man (who now has the ability to slide under obstacles) and his robotic companion Rush to traverse the universe and defeat the Robot Masters in the third installment of the Mega Man series.
