I have a couple, actually. The first two are from one of those "1001 games on two CDs!" type of things. One was a 3D type of game like Block-Out (the kind where you have a paddle and you break bricks). You saw the level from the view of the paddle itself. The levels were fashioned so they looked like rooms. The passwords for the first set of levels were Hyrdogen, Helium, Lithium, etc. The second game was called Amiga, but Googling for it only gives me info on the Amiga system. It was a very simple game with lots of blocks and such on the screen. You have to move a snake from one end to the other. When you push a direction, it kept going in that direction until it hit something. I think certain colors of blocks would kill you, help you, etc. If anyone knows anymore about this game, please tell me. --- SNES RPG: Five characters to the party. About as generic an RPG as you can get. Eventually, you went up in the sky. I think the basic "potion" equivalent was "Plums" or something. Edit: Oh, and a PS1 game...you had a red, yellow, blue, and green player. You fought to put crystals in containers, but you had to rotate the room to get to different containers.

Panic Restaurant posted:I'm almost positive that's the original Breath of Fire you're thinking of. I'm actually positive it is. It's Sara who's using the spells to put out the fire in Drogan (I think that's the city). You then go up and fight a giant Frog in a castle and they build a statue of you. I really love that game, and the sequel is one of the better RPGs of the 90s in my opinion.

A couple... 1) SNES - Golf - HORRIBLE 3D Graphics - courses were on mountains and in canyons and stuff. 2) Unknown platform, I heard about this on a Retronauts podcast a while back. It was apparently a Korean game that when the developers wanted music, they asked someone in America to send them what were examples of popular music. The guy sent them a mix tape, and when they got a demo of the game, it started out with Smells Like Teen Spirit, and there was a samurai level or something with "Two Princes" by that lovely band that did "Little Miss Can't Be Wrong". 3+4) Two PS1 RPGs - they came out around the same time as Legend of Legaia. One you were a knight and you had a pink fluffy sidekick or something, and the other was a two disc game. It was weird though in that there was an underworld, that if you wanted to go to, you had to change discs. It made playing the game really annoying, and I stopped once I got to that point. I think one of the characters was a floating Albert Einstein head.

Alright, I got a few. 1. It's a Megaman game, but what game does this song come from? http://www.megaupload.com/?d=PLXPBDKF I thought it'd be Megaman 5 (either Star or Gravity Man), but I was wrong. 2. An old series of PC games. They were based off of learning, and one you had to save a TV station or something, and another was on a mountain, and a third was in a school with robots. I'm pretty sure your character didn't have a face, but rather a large denim jacket and a big red cap pulled over his face.

Saint Septimus posted:That's Ducktales, moon level specifically. I admit that it did make me think it was one of the space-themed Megaman levels though. Awesome. That song is one of the best songs I've heard come from a game - it's right up there with "Mighty Mighty Man" from Fallout 3 and the intro to Megaman 3. --- Here's another one, and I play it pretty regularly, but I don't know the name of it. I see it in Japanese arcades pretty often. It's a first person on-rails shooter, but instead of shooting, you have these things you punch with. I don't know, it's pretty wacky. There was a "gang" level where you infiltrate an all-black gang in LA or something, and then there's a japanese level with ninjas that you punch in the face.

There was an RPG a while back, or may be recent, that had a boss that just said "Buh Buh buh buh buh buh buh" over and over. I think it may have been one of the Paper Marios, but can someone please help me out on this?

Sorry for a necromance, but does anyone remember an RPG where, about halfway through, your characters find a large mural in a dungeon or something that it supposed to tell the end of the world, or the past, or something? I think it was PS1 or PS2 era. I know Tales of Vesperia had one, but I don't think that's the one I am remembering. If I remember right, it was in sorta a yellowish brown room, and as you were going deeper into the dungeon, the mural was on your left side.

dregan posted:Wario Land? Alternately a google for 'platformer with lots of hats' gives: http://www.funny-games.biz/hats.html Definitely not that. It had more of a "slick" look to it. There were probably like, a ton of hats. Maybe 30ish. Like, you'd find one in the house you start in, then you go to the dungeon and you find a lot more. I'm pretty sure they were all just cosmetic though.

Okay, reposting from like a year ago. I had a game on one of those 1001 games on two cds things. It was just called "Amiga". It absolutely looked like a pre-NES game. The screen was full of different shaped blocks. You controlled a snake, and you started at the top. You push down, and you would go down until you hit a block. Then you could turn. The goal was to get to a green block somewhere on the map. All the rest of the blocks were orange-ish red. Searching for "Amiga game" doesn't work, obviously. Anyone have any idea where I could find it?

There was a little PC game a while back that was similar to a multiplayer version of Push Me Pull You except you were colored sand. If you were able to surround parts of the opponent's sand, you would turn it to your color slowly. I know that it had at least 3 player support, possibly even 4. Anyone remember that?
