Mine has to be Dragon Quest: Rocket Slime, a DS spin off of the Dragon Quest series that sees you playing as a slime operating a tank and rescuing the people from your town. You run around the overworld, collecting items to use as ammunition and saving money to upgrade your tank. The art and music are just as great as you'd expect from the Dragon Quest series. It made fantastic use of the DS's dual screens. It's also written for a younger audience, so a lot of it is just really silly and fun! Try it out for sure, I'm so sad there's no sequel :(

NES: Back in the day, it was probably River City Ransom. Growing up, it was a game my brother and I loved to play… but no one ever knew what we were talking about at the time. Now the Kunio games are a bit more known, and with River City Girls 1/2 they’re getting attention, which is great.

Wow. I can't believe you know River City Ransom. I played this game with my friend for hours and hours but no one else has ever heard of it outside of us until now. It was so fun and we beat it several times.
