I wonder if anyone in the SMBX community heard of this underrated 3DS game, Gotta Protectors?

It's kinda like a 8-bit arcade style game on the Nintendo 3DS where a princess and her 6 bodyguards tries to save the kingdom from evil forces. Very addictive, and the songs were composed my legendary chiptune artist, Yuzo Koshiro.

I've definitely never heard of this game before, but it sounds like a fun one

Yume Nikki, the deepest game in this tiny list. For some strange reason i started to like this game even if it gave me traumas back in 2011. Even if it doesnt haves a plot the purpose of this game is provoke you to explore whats inside it, even if it looks scary.

Spongebob Squarepants SuperSponge, the most hidden gem of THQ. Gotta say this one is unnecessarily difficult but it haves some good tunes!

The Lawnmower Man for the SNES, the only movie-licensed game that is good (subjectively) even if it has some crispy framerates on the VR parts compared with the Genesis one. This one is also amazing by the music, and this game is one of the strange cases where the game is actually better than the movie itself.

City Connection. It's kinda hard but once you master the controls, it's very fun. People rarely talk about it when it comes to retro games.

I've always been interested in Yume Nikki, but never gotten around to playing it, what would be the best reason to get it would you say?

I wont know how to explain without spoiling you but ill try my best.

This game catches pretty well the atmosphere of everything on it and there are some unique stages on it. Maybe this was short but i didnt wanted to spoil anything!

I'm gonna get this off my chest, because why not zoidberg?

Wario Land 3 on the Gameboy Color is the most underrated GBC game ever imo! I mean come on, WL3 staff tried a Metroidvania gameplay for this installment!

Boom Blox and its sequel, Boom Blox: Bash Party were great party games on the Wii

Yeah yeah, EA made them, yeah yeah, they're not Mario Party

But a lot of the levels had well designed and fun puzzles and the game itself had a level editor where you could make puzzles or even pixel art

Lemme tell ya more games that I think are very underrated imo:


  • 8bit Hero on the WiiU (A fun party multiplayer action game with 8-bit sprites, N64-like atmosphere, and chiptune music. Recommend it if you and 4 friends want a 5-player fun factor for about $5. ^^")
  • Glover (To be specific, the Nintendo 64 version)
  • Brave Dungeon (A rouge-like turn-based RPG gaiden game installment from The Legend of Dark Witch series)
  • Lego Star Wars on the GBA (Imo, this version feels more like a Star Wars game than the PC and console versions)

Probably the Plants Vs Zombies series, I mean, you don't see much talk of them, and, btw, before anybody says how the bad microtransactions are, despite how much I somewhat agree, you will never reach MKTour's level of insane microtransactions.

Monster Tale for NDS. When it came out, and until a few years ago, this game was having its own popularity in the US but for some reason it's not anymore now. Now it just looks like people left it in the trashcan.
