Protect Me Knight, and its sequel Gotta Protectors are tower defense games where you protect a spoiled princess against hoards of enemies. It's good fun, great in multiplayer, has a sense of humor, and definitely feels very Japanese. There's a third game on Switch that's been out in Japan for like a year, but hasn't been released worldwide yet. No clue if it will or not.
The first two games are on Xbox 360 Indie Games and 3DS as downloads only, respectively

I remember playing Mr. Mosquito years back as a kid. Wackiest game I got to play when I rented it since it's all about being a little flying shit sucking blood from people consisting of a teenage girl, her parents, and her best friend. Near the end of the game, the family end up going over the top in trying to kill you to the point that the dad throws some energy balls or rings that would fit an anime.
For how the game is, it's an interesting premise in making an FPS about getting through purgatory with a spear while playing as either a woman or a guy that looks like Jesus. Wouldn't mind it getting a translation since the game does look fun.
One wacky Japanese game I can imagine fitting this thread would be Death Crimson. Just look at the visuals and all the shit the game throws as enemies. It was released for the Sega Saturn.

I like Parodius, but I don't know if it really counts since it has "parody" right in the title. It's all about taking the piss out of side-scrolling shooters, to the point were you can play as the Vic Viper or TwinBee. Or Pentaro the flying shooting penguin because that's how this game rolls.
But I'm not here to talk about that. I'm here to talk about a game handed out in grocery stores to both promote a very specific product while encouraging young girls to eat healthy so they don't get fat at a young age. The product Ajinomoto brand mayonnaise, and this is Motoko-Chan no Wonder Kitchen.
I don't speak moon runes, but the fact that every recipe shows fat content makes it clear that they're making it clear that Ajinomoto brand mayonnaise won't make you fat, at least with these recipes anyways. Yes, I do believe the player is intended to make these recipes for real, but being unable to read or speak Japanese I have no idea how to actually replicate these recipes. Which is fine because I personally have no intent on eating a fruit salad mixed with mayo (which also is a featured recipe in our cookbook horrors thread).

To add to this, HG101 tried to deny saying the things that he said.
We can only hope.
Good to see Disaster Report mentioned. A sequel is on Steam.
A couple (hundred) I've not seen mentioned. The Simple Series.
A few Simple Series games have been mentioned already. It was a line of budget games in Japan, mostly consisting of Mahjong games, horse racing games, and other standard Japanese filler. They also have some weird games too, like Demolition Girl (where you use aircraft and a giant cake to distract a giant woman in a bikini), Zombie Virus (the GTA3 ambulance mini game, but in the zombie apocalypse), Maid and Machine Gun (you play as a maid, with a machine gun) and many more, including Earth Defence Force and Onechanbara.

Lot of obscure stuff mentioned but Metal Gear Solid 2 belongs in this thread. The whole thing but especially the last third of the game.

Metal Gear Solid 1-3 is pretty wacky overall and got soome good laughs out of me. In the area around the cafeteria/mess hall on Big Shell, go into the women's restroom, crawl close to the toilets, go into first person mode and call Campbell(repeatedly? can't remember).
Skipping Ocelot's cutscene in 3 was also really funny. First time I fought him I died so tge second time I skipped the cutscene because I had already seen it.

A police chase game. Featuring boat handling, Twisted Metal like arsenals that didn't work most of cases, bad framerates, low draw distance, cheap difficulty roadblocks, and awful story + bad English voice acting. Some of game contents seem unfinished.
Interestingly, the intro and outro video were made with a decent production quality. Can't say the same to the actual gameplay however.
It also featured a Wangan Midnight reference to one of missions, but rather insulting where the driver is on drugs and driving recklessly. The mission encourages player to stop the vehicle by ramming at it until it blows to pieces or slow the vehicle till it stops moving.
