Demon's Crest is one of the true underrated gems of the SNES library, yet it sold terribly upon its initial release back in 1994. In issue 100 of Nintendo Power it was even reported that the game had registered negative sales one week, as more people returned it for a refund than bought it. Thankfully, Capcom thought highly enough of this excellentGhouls 'n Ghosts spin-off to publish it on the Virtual Console, where it can be enjoyed for a fraction of its current market value on the SNES.
Jools Watsham, the co-creator of the Nintendo DS horror game, Dementium, wants to make another horror game that is "Dementium on a train".
The 1990s were a time where mech-suit manga and television shows were starting to filter into the United States. The result was that we got a boatload of cool mech games like Metal Warriors.
Still love the Power Rangers games but most of these underrated games cost an arm and a leg to buy unless you kept them around when they released.
yeah I had to resort to an everdrive cart for my Analogue Super NT because some game prices are just ridiculous.
Sparkster. Like Rocket Knight Adventures on the Sega Genesis neither game seems to be brought up much. I played both game a whole lot growing up.
Wow, would you look at that? A game list with some actual forgotten gems. Color me impressed.
Good stuff. 👍
I cannot praise EVO The Search for Eden enough. This game deserves a remake as it’s one of the wildest platformer JRPGs ever made. The concept of spending XP on evolving and devolving on the fly to navigate the world was really interesting. Evolution in games is rarely tackled creatively but EVO nailed it.
This was one of my favorite games during the 16-Bit era. Me and my cousin rented it not knowing what it was and ended up finishing it. Still, to this day, one of the most unique games I've ever played. Very addictive too.
This game is truly tops. 👍
HPP's Josh crafts an unholy list of the Top 8 Spooky Games In Need a Sequel That Originated on Nintendo Platforms. From old to new, a gory list to dream about.
The title says the criteria was explicitly written to mention Eternal Darkness. I am happy to see House of the Dead: OVERKILL on here. With the rise of Grindhouse themes in the 2010s, (ie WET), this was one that was both entertaining and camp funny.
Would be nice to see a new Zombie game set in the UK again, some of the landmarks, old architecture and the like really fits in well with the genre.
Demon's Crest was a great game. I hope to see a sequel by Capcom or renegade.
I want to see a sequel (Glares at Capcom).
It just goes to show that companies like them aren't likely to take risks, even though I'm sure rk would have done great work for the companies, and I doubt it would have costed them much.
