Star Ocean. The very first. This game never appears on any other platforms. The remakes they made for this game completely changed world exploration and major game systems, from combat to crafting. Now, I love the remakes and play them regularly, but this game in this form is trapped on a 30 year old console and deserves to be freed from its prison. This game is one of the first ARPGs ever made, but it's also one of the best in terms of threading together RPG and Action mechanics.

Bust-A-Move
Bust-A-MoveBust-A-Move (also known as Puzzle Bobble) is a real-time puzzle game in which the player controls a device called "pointer" at the bottom of the screen, aiming and releasing randomly colored bubbles upwards. Depending on the aiming, the bubbles may float up directly or bounce off the walls, changing their trajectory. The goal is to aim the bubbles in such a way that they will touch identically colored ones. When such bubbles form a group of three or more, they pop and disappear from the screen. If the ceiling of the area is covered by too many bubbles, it will gradually descend; the game is over when it nearly reaches the player-controlled pointer. Should the player fail to release the bubbles within a specific time limit, they will be released automatically, unaffected by the pointer's aiming.
