Childhood games no one talks about

[RetroCasual]

Animaniacs for the SNES was one of my childhood favourites, because of its colorful and variated levels, the music, multiple situations and the swapping character feature. I still laugh every time the blonde nurse appears and makes the three guys fall in love with her, or the fat cop tries to grab any of them

Off topic but your name is nostalgic, Cardcaptor Sakura

I saw the anime in 2017 and I grew to really appreciate it the more I watched it. The anime does have some flaws, but personally I have a soft spot for it and really enjoy it. It is such a feel good anime that leaves me with a comforting feeling when watching it

A bunch. Inkheart sticks out because you held the DS like a book. The game itself wasn't even that good, I think. I actually don't remember much of it, besides that gimmick.

What I do remember being a really good game was Sonic Chronicles, and the two Sonic Rush games. There were a lot of good DS games that simply got overshadowed by their respective non-handheld counterparts.

Sonic Rush Adventure was pretty good. Plus I liked allot of its ost.

I was OBSESSED with this game called Raskulls on the Xbox 360 Arcade. I played through the entire game with my siblings and we kept coming back to it for years. It was a sort of racing platformer where you had to remove puzzle blocks run a smart way to get ahead/sabotage your opponents.
I think it was the first game I ever bought DLC for and probably a game that helped realize my love for skeletons. I’ve never seen anyone talk about it on the internet, ever.
I would love for a sequel/remake/rerelease of it!

Obvious answer incoming.

But my real answer is MySims Agents. I thought this game was awesome as a kid.

Had so much fun playing Team Buddies with friends, what's weird is I never see anyone online talk about this game.

never heard anyone say

Scud: Industrial Evolution (Windows)

Remember Scud: Industrial Evolution (Windows), an old video game from 1997? Download it and play again on MyAbandonware.

occasionally would hear someone say

ōdi∙um (Windows)

Remember ōdi∙um (Windows), an old video game from 1999? You can play it again for a cheap price.

but then everyone else would immediately leave the room

I have a lot of fond memories of playing Teslagrad, but I've never seen anybody talk about this game.

Dino City / Dinawars from irem. I had this one as a kid and it was a lot of fun. I've never heard anyone else ever talk about this game except for one random YouTuber like 15 years ago. I liked it a lot as a kid, and I still enjoy it as an adult.

Holy heck, both of those covers are some of the most 90s things ever 90'd.
