Clockwork Knight 2 – Sega Saturn
With fun and lovable characters, exceptional graphics laid out in a 2D side scrolling perspective, and a familiar feel, Clockwork Knight 2 is worth your time. While the platforming genre may have been a little tired in 1996, Sega felt that it just needed some fresh blood. I think it’s time you relived your youthful years and set your imagination free!

Mega Man 6 – NES
Mega Man’s final outing on the NES, Mega Man 6, introduces several new concepts, including a more exploratory environment. With new abilities, new ways to use them, and new choices to make, see why Mega Man 6 unfairly gets the shaft when it comes to the series’ time on the NES.

Nihilumbra – PC
Nihilumbra is a very touching platformer that takes you through the world in the eyes of Born, a creature made out of pure nothingness that wants to know what it means to really live. Using a creative color mechanic and introducing new puzzles and obstacles at a comfortable pace, the only thing more impressive than the gameplay is the powerful narrative that gives this game its structure.

Mega Man 5 – NES
Mega Man 5, the 5th of 6 Mega Man installments on the NES, is another fine example of what makes those early Mega Man games so appealing.

Earthworm Jim 2 – SNES
Earthworm Jim was a groundbreaking game in its day that has aged quite well, if I may say. With a unique look, stellar gameplay, and the perfect mix of humor with action elements, Jim was a contender for a new action star. Though his first game was a success, the fall that followed was monumental. And where did all this begin? Why, Earthworm Jim 2! What? Don’t believe me? Liked Earthworm Jim 2? Well then allow Nerd Bacon’s own ZB to break it down for you and explain why the sequel failed to live up to the first installment in the series.

Diablo 3 – PlayStation 4
Diablo 3 is a fun game on its own merits as a hack-and-slash RPG, but playing it solo doesn’t do it justice. I can say that after playing many hours both solo and cooperatively. If you are looking for a good single player game, I’d probably recommend something else, though if cooperative games are on the menu for you, Diablo 3 is a good choice. Its availability on the consoles makes the game open to many more players.

Puzzle Bobble Mini – Neo Geo Pocket Color
Surely anyone who has browsed the games section of any mobile app store has seen at least a dozen of those “puzzle bubble” games. This puzzle game genre has become increasingly popular over the last decade or so with the growing mobile and handheld gaming market. However, it had some pretty humble roots; the Puzzle Bobble (and of course Bubble Bobble) series. Or as it is referred to in the United States, Bust-a-Move.

Titan Attacks – Nintendo 3DS
