Extremely Weird And Obscure Games

[Deleted member 660650]

Flower, Sun, and Rain on PS2 or Nintendo DS

NDS version is less weird and I think playing the PS2 version in Japanese because it has no English patch yet can make the game way more weirder to non-Japanese speakers!!! lol

for added extra weirdness, every game in this thread should be played in Japanese.

Since you mentioned untranslated games:
deSpiria on the Dreamcast.

Then I raise the stakes and say Kowloon's Gate. It's even "WTF" when you can understand it, imagine the WTFness trying to understand what the hell is happening lol.

Then play this one, you may like it more lol: https://retrogametalk.com/repo/ps2-iso/baroque-undubusa/

They used to share this game around as an illegal drug because I assure you this is stronger than any drug you've experienced!!!! lol

I was thinking of playing it just today, but I couldn't decide what version of the game I should play, the saturn or the PS2.
I saw some mixing reviews saying that the PS2 version has more content, but that the saturn was cooler because of its trippy designs

Why not both? lol

I like both but they have their own special things. Original has the 2D weirdness while remake has the weirdness translated for 3D and it adds another similar taste lol.

But remake has a cool feature of whatever clothes you wear being shown on your character and gives you another taste in combat.

In the end original is for the real taste of the art of the game, while remake is for enjoying another test of weirdness and combat.

But if you wanna get the best experience of course original is the real deal, while remake is more childish to befit modern anime kid generation I guess, but then if you don't care about the art and dislike the gameplay of the original remake is okay alternative.

[Vardalis]

My most obscure would probably be the more "obscure" lightgun games. The kinds I only ever saw at one place and never again.

Those would probably be stuff like Vampire Night, Area 51 Site 4 or Virtua Cop 3.

 

[Mubashureta]

i'm pretty curious to see what kind of stuff the saturn offers to the eye i mean there's jung rhythm but idk much else
can you show me some weird games you found?

oh shit i still have that signature

 

[bigstinkie]

what do you mean by 'weird'? there are a lot of japan only saturn games i enjoy, but i do not know which ones would be considered weird.
here is footage of wachenroder as a token of peace

 

[Mubashureta]

i mean considering that the sega saturn had alot of japanese games there can be some weird ones since the playstation has it's fare share of weird games(japan only or not) and i figured "well what about the sega saturn" however don't know much games that can considered weird so yeah
