Fuck yeah dude, that game is actually fairly challenging even as an adult (maybe just because I'm a tard monkey)
Also I play Zoo Tycoon 2 just to make pretty zoos, I don't play challenge mode or scenarios, just make zoos.

Ham-Ham Heartbreak was pretty much the only game I had for my GBA when I was a kid ...and I was surprisingly chill with it, but then, I've never been much of a gamer. I played Zoo Tycoon 2 a lot too, though. I'm really kinda annoyed that now that I have a Mac, I probably can't play it again without paying an annoying amount of money. :( Been looking for clones and nothing compares.
EDIT: HOLY SHITFUCK I DID IT. I AM KOMPOOTR JEENYUS. Zoo Tycoon 2 yeeeeeeeee.

Did anyone else have the Hoyle PC games at any point? I was really into that when I was a kid . Just playing boardgames with wacky computer characters. I ended up caving a few months ago and buying the latest versions only to find that they cut out some of my favorite characters as well as a few games.

TMNT for the NES. Yes, it's not as good as the beat 'em ups that Konami would later churn out, but I still find some enjoyment out of it. I was even able to beat it legit after all these years.

Powerpuff Girls Mojo Jojo a GoGo for the GBA. Sure, it was one of the better PPG games to be commerically released, and it was short, but I put so many hours into it because I really liked the PPG at the time (I still do).

Bump N' Jump on the NES. This was one of my most played games when I was younger.

Cat Planet. See below.

Holy shit, does anyone remember Humongous games like Pajama Sam, Spy Fox and Putt Putt? I remember I found Pajama Sam for PS1 about eight years ago and ran through it in a nostolgia fueled afternoon. I wish I could find the older stuff, but like @Golly I have a Mac now, so that complicates things. (Your post made me think of this and sperg, fucking Macs man)

Dude, Freddy Fish was my spirit animal
 
World of Warcraft. I usually end up raiding at least a tier or two of every expac and I enjoy it immensely for the six months or so when I'm in the mood for an MMO. Killing bosses when part of an organized raid group is still one of my favorite gaming experiences. Eventually the grind wears me out and I quit for a while, but I always end up going back because I've played it off and on for about eight years now and genuinely enjoy the game when it's at its high points.
 
There's actually a kind of disturbing secret unused cut scene hidden in the first Freddi Fish game
If you look you can see like, little blood crumbs coming out of the eel's mouth.

Also @Fialovy told me Freddi was a girl and I'm inclined to believe her but I forget what her proof was
He is voiced by a girl anyway

DUDE WHAT THE FUCK. SERIOUSLY WHAT THE FUCK.
(god that was nostalgic as fuck to watch though. why why WHY do I have a Mac?!) :sad:

And haha yeah in my first reply to you I was going to ask "who's that little green fucker that follows her around?" and then I was like wait a second...is Freddy a she? And started to have a internal crisis over the correct pronouns of an animated fish from 20 years ago.
 
the .hack games. combat is repetitive as fuck and the graphics in the first games look like ass (love the art style in the gu games) also the music in the franchise is wonderful.
 
Dog's Life. It's basically meant to be stupid and uses a lot of toilet humor, but still pretty fun to play.
 
I downloaded the demo for Style Savvy: Trendsetters looking for something to laugh at... And then I ended up liking it, which led to me downloading the full game on launch day. And to this day, SST ranks as one of my most played games on my 3DS. So embarassing, but dammit, the game is fun. I hate that I like it...
 
EA movie tie-in RPGs for me. There's Fellowship of the Ring on GBA which is a pretty boring RPG with weird difficulty, but I liked it as a kid and for some reason it felt fun to hoard literally useless shit around.
Still on LoTR, there's The Third Age on PS2 whose premise is "Gandalf had a back-up Fellowship that did all the cool shit the other didn't behind the scenes". It blatantly steals its mechanics from FFX and X-2, the story doesn't deviate a single bit from what the movies allow and the characters are pretty boring. Plus when you reach the end of the game you'll be halfway through each character's skill tree unless you've been grinding to hell and back and there's literally nothing left to do. On the plus side, when the game wants to be challenging, it IS challenging (Helm's Deep in particular), you get to do lots of cool shit like beating the shit out of those giant elephant things on foot and poking Sauron in the eye, and every piece of equipment shows on the characters when equipped, which is something I wish more games did back them.
Then there's the Harry Potter RPGs. The first two on GBC and the last one on GBA. They're nothing special, but the soundtracks are pretty great, especially on the last two. Plus, it makes HP look a lot cooler than it is. Harry can beat the shit out of every fucking thing that tries to lay a hand on him in it, Voldemort included, in his first grade and with nothing but pure spellpower. It's pretty fun.
 
I will probably be eternally damned for this but...

Sonic 06. Not just because of the glitches, which are damn hilarious and entertaining... But just because I didn't find it as bad as people made it out to be? I guess I have high standards.

Now Sonic Boom, THAT'S a bad game. Even Sonic 06 had at least an amazing soundtrack, while Sonic Boom's is boring and forgettable.
