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 :(

Rocket Knight Adventures, back on the Genesis. Not the easiest game, and the "jumping from platform to platform by your tail" was ass to get the hang of in a boss fight, but I miss when games weren't so serious about themselves and you could just play something for a while. Sometimes I really want a grand statement that will leave me in a crying heap. Sometimes it's nice to just be a possum in jet-propelled plate mail.
