Unirally is called “Uniracers” in North America. It was one of the few games I had on SNES and I loved it. The music is a jam and the game is endlessly replayable!!

Nostalgia hit me hard when you showed that Arkenoid cartridge. It's one of the first games I've ever played, and I played the hell out of it as a kid.

Cybernator is definitely a hidden gem. Assault Suit Leynos 2 for the Saturn is the successor and also great.

Rock'n Roll Racing is awesome!

How have I never played Equinox? Your channel is a gold mine, dood.

Great video! I’ll definitely pick some of those games up!

Rip is about to blow! Love R&R Racing, such a fun game. Great list, just found your channel. Fun memories!

Great video. Great games. This is my first time seeing your videos. I am an instant subscriber. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. ❤ P.S. anyone ever tell you that you look like James McAvoy?

Great list! My favorite hidden gem is E.V.O Search for Eden. It's very flawed, by there really is no other game quite like it, and I end up playing through it at least once every couple years haha.

There's a really good remake of Cybernator on the PS2 called Vulken. It's got all the parts Censored from the snes western release re-added, and strangely, it's a PAL exclusive.

I am with you on Wario’s Woods and I am also a sucker for a good block falling puzzle game. Rock n Roll is a fantastic game to play with friends and you made a good few suggestions that I will have to have a crack at, one being uniracers - great video!!!

Some great choices there. Played most of them. I need to go back to Equinox. Only one Ive not seen was that RPG one, does look 'different' for sure.

Was blown away to hear a Lee's games reference. I go regularly as I'm from the area. Good channel, I'm enjoying what I've seen so far

Wow lots of neat games in this video! Unirally and Sparkster both piqued my interest the most, I’ll definitely have to check those out! I think for me Umihara Kawase and Pop’n TwinBee are two of the best “hidden gems” I’ve found that no one talks about. Both amazing games! Great video as always, keep up the great work!

This is the first time I've seen Equinox gameplay, actually! I used to see it in Nintendo Power a lot but never really checked it out (as a kid, it looked like one of those games that would be "too complex" for me), but I think you sold me on it! Cybernator is definitely on my "try this" list, as I love Metal Warriors (the spiritual sequel quite a lot). Arkanoid, too, looks great! Surprised to see praise for Death Valley Rally (the Road Runner game). I actually liked it quite a bit as a kid (I still do) though I'll admit it's a bit rough control-wise. And I totally agree, Uniracers/Unirally is criminally underrated. I'll never understood why it never took off (aside from the Pixar debacle). It was one of the games we'd always play whenever I had friends over. Great video! You've piqued my interest in every one of these.

Been playing a little Metal Warriors/Aleste myself these days, good for a 5-minute break

What I most love about your videos is that you always look so pleased! Best wishes from Portugal! :)

I used to play unirally against my brother alllll the time! I'd be able to compete with my (older) brother on the race tracks, but the trick-tracks I just didn't stand a chance! So much fun.

Great video as always. My friend gifted me a SNES for Xmas and I'm only just now getting into it! Lots of fun to be had, I'm excited. Thanks for the list, and the other one you did too, watched em both twice.

I used to play Wario woods all the time. Such a fun puzzle game.

Thanks man I was looking for some sNES titles to add to my r4 it’s really help pick some games that I’ve never heard about plus cyberNater kind of reminded me of shinobi on the sega Genesis so thanks

4:34 - I so fully agree. This is my favourite puzzle game of all times. I can't understand why Nintendo never give this GEM credit. And in re-releases it is of some dumb reason only the NES version they give, while the SNES version is superior.

Taekwon-do is my new favorite game for snes. Rock and Roll racing is my all time favorite game, thank you for putting it in your list.

Glad someones talks about Paladins Quest, not a bad game IMO, just different.

I always enjoy these lists as it's nice to hear of something new and different, thanks for the vid! I feel like Gunparu Gunman's Proof is a hidden gem, check it out I think you'll like it!

I’d consider Fire Striker. It’s sort of a Breakout ball-bouncing game, but with a taste of Zelda looking dungeons and free moving characters. Great co-op too!

Aleste is called Space Megaforce in the US. Just beat it recently. Love me vertical shooters!

Good video it good when people do this video and when you fine rare games you got excited keep up the good work pal

Right to my favorites. I gotta check out most of trese games, especially Uni Rally. Nice vid dude :)

Great video friend!! What a list of gems from SuperNintendo, I have Cybernator, Rock and roll racing and Sparkster from that list. Greetings!!

I definitely wanna try some of these when I get my retro device. My hidden gem is blackthorne. Idk if it's hidden or not but I never hear it. It is absolutely amazing. Still today, it's my favorite game of all time

Have you tried Firepower 2000? back when the game came out, Nintendo Power magazine said almost verbatim that this could "possibly be the greatest shooting game of all time". That's what made me go and get it back then

Morning mate I couldn't believe it when I saw that sticker on that cartridge and then you gave Lee's Games a shout. Best shop ever!! I try to visit every few weeks. Getting quite a bit of nostalgia from watching all of these super nintendo videos. I guess I've mainly been focusing on master system. Great video mate. I would love to pick up a copy of Super Aleste one day.

Mystery Dungeon 2: Shiren the Wanderer. I couldn't stop playing until I finished it 100%.

Good to see Sparkster getting some love. I don't know if Legend of the Mystical Ninja and Contra III: The Alien Wars count as hidden gems but those are often on my list alongside Sparkster of masterpieces that aren't first-party Nintendo games. Tiny Toons Adventures: Buster Busts Loose was very good as well, even if it was short. And Top Gear is a hidden gem that I think needs a whole lot more appreciation.

Unirally is one of my favorite games ever, it's so much fun

Equinox was actually the sequel to another isometric game on the NES, Solstice. (See a pattern?) As for Paladin's Quest, it is actually the first Lennus game. Lennus 2 was never released in the US. I won't tell you where you can get it in English, but I'm sure you know. I honestly really enjoyed PQ. The only thing that really bothers me about it, and this is true for a *lot* of older RPGS, is how slow it feels. I didn't notice it so much as a kid, but there are actually a lot of older RPGs that if I were to play them now I'd have to use something to double their speed.

Great video, some nice titles there although I'm not sure Super Aleste is a hidden gem? It's pretty well known in the snes community. I've just sold my pal copy as picking up the jap version which has 3 extra levels! Anyway keep up the good work! Look forward to your next vid 👍

nice shout for paladin quest and rock and roll racing cmiiw, paladin quest i think its the very first rpg game that your party member can change

Unirally is a lot of fun! And Road Runner is awesome! Had that game as a kid. Was super hard though. Gotta see if I can complete it as an adult.

i have cybernator, its awesome, i discovered it way back then. of course this was when konami was in their prime way back. i'll probably pick up a few of these u showed in your video. a few i havent heard of. i've been getting back into retro cart collecting and whew.. it's expensive! wow. but it's fun.. as i'm lookin at utube channels and discovering new games i hadnt heard of back then.

I think a video at that game shop sounds really interesting and would be cool to see. Also Paladins Quest looks very interesting, thanks for the recommendation

Could you do another video about what games you been playing lately and more tips on playing thru a backlog?

Paladin's Quest is Lennus 1 in Japan. Lennus 2 was never release outside JP and is also a marvelous game.

My brother and I loved, hated Equinox. Got to a point in the game where we couldn't figure out what to do, never beat it.

if you like Rock n Roll Racing, you WOULD LOVE Biker Mice from Mars. I think it is the far superior title. So much more variety, but somehow balanced quite well.

Yay, someone else has heard of Paladin's Quest. Also, its Lennus in Japan, and the sequel was Lennus 2 which the west never got.

Unirally is a game my cousin and I used to play a lot. So fun

Very cool list! Love how it's full with great games that are not just the usual suspects! I had never even heard of Equinox, looks real interesting. Thanks for making this one, always a pleasure to hear you share your thoughts and experiences with the games!

From the start. Never heard of equinox or cybernator. Subbed right away haha. Good stuff man.

Equinox looks great! Not really come across many isometric games on the SNES, so have to give this one a try!

Good all unirally loved this game back in the day the multiplayer was fun too

Cybernator is freaking amazing. Pity that's a bit short. There's a switch version coming out.

Super Aleste is weird but awesome and Sparkster in general needs more love!

Really cool list😃And yah Rock N' Roll Racing was a big thing to me as a kid, when I was hearing for the first time the track bad to the bone😃😃

Paladin's Quest looks incredible, definitely checking that one out

I think Paladin's quest is just Lennus (I could be wrong) And Lennus 2 IS simply the sequel, regardless, it was translated into English and is a really good time!

I love your channel. You're so pleasant

ActRaiser 2, Pieces and Tom & Jerry are my most common picks

Wow you’re actually really knowledgeable about this stuff.

That is froogin’ nuts!

Cool list full of games that actually aren't talked about that much. I never heard of Rock and Roll racing before, might wanna give it a shot.

Cybernator is also available on the ps2 under the Japanese title assault suit vulcan. It had a slight graphical overhaul but is still recognisably the same game. It's part of a larger series of assault suit games. Assault suit leynos being a well-known one in the series that was released on the megadrive.

Uniracers was incredible!

Equinox, Arkanoid, and Paladin's Quest are definitely not talked about enough, even on Hidden Gem lists. Good list overall!

You really know your stuff babyyyy !!!!

Good video! Cybernator is tough but such a great game, and what a soundtrack... Paladin's Quest would be Lennus 1. Lennus 2 is a significant upgrade on every level and the plot of the first game ends up being quite important later on. The magic system is quite curious, and the mercenary system offers a lot of replayability. There's a fan translation for it, so if you can give it a try. One random weird game I ended up enjoying a lot was King Arthur's World. It's a 2D real time strategy with a variety of classes with different talents, pretty reliant on puzzle-like design. It gets quite tough as the game loves to laugh at you, and like RnR Racing it works at half the frame rate, but I'd be lying if I said I did not enjoy it, specially learning to do all sort of tricks with archers and wizards. There's many Super Famicom games no one talks about too...

Here's 5 hidden gems I lost countless hours in Lemmings 2: The Tribes Twelve different Tribes and 40 new moves, Lemmings best game in the series, ported to the SNES by Rockstar Games (DMA Design) themselves. Theme Park Apart from Sim City and Civilization, Theme Park was another easy to learn, not too complex builder/sim game for the SNES. As a sim fan you had to have it in your collection as games like this, and good ones at that, were a rarity on the SNES. Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 The definitive one, that for some unruly reason always stayed in the shadows of MK1, MK2, and MK3. The competitive scene has selected UMKIII though, and so do I. E.V.O.: Search for Eden Absolutely fantastic and unique action RPG. Needs a sequel, a remaster, a clone, and more players being aware. Nothing comes close, it's as unique as ActRaiser and Live A Live. Winter Gold Felt like a next gen game. Possibly SNES best 3D graphics.

You're 100% right on Wario's Woods. The NES version is on the Switch Online service but for whatever reason, the SNES version is not. Sorta getting lost to time. My childhood best friend and I pick up our ongoing file that we've been playing since middle school anytime he's in town.

i love cybernator, was playing it earlier lol

1:40 Cybernator is part two of the "Assault Suit" series, and was called "Assault Suits Valken" in Japan, with part one of the series (Mega Drive game) called "Assault Suit Leynos" in Japan ("Target Earth" in the USA for the Genesis). There is also a 2nd game for each of those on the SEGA Saturn ("Assault Suit Leynos 2") and PlayStation ("Assault Suit Valken 2") - sadly only Japan exclusive this time. There was also a remake of the first game ("Leynos" or "Target Earth") for the PS4/Windows PC, which follows more closely the original Japanese storyline, as the story in the western versions of those games in the series were mostly removed. Especially the 2nd game ("Cybernator") was censored a lot, which makes the Japanese version very interesting for an import. :)

Uni rally, ah yes it was called uniracers in the states. Fun times!😊

Undercover Cops is a good beat em up, I've only played on an emulator, don't think we got a pal version

Great selection! I will definitely play these on my Wii, Wii U and Switch. Like & sub.🙃

Doh is the huge orange/red wireframe-head boss from Rainbow Islands. You can see him on the box art of Arkanoid. Doh It Again is a pun on his name, admittedly that doesn't make it much less weird

Great footage but I wouldn't call all these games on SNES hidden gems. A good few are very well known ( still doesn't stop them from being great mind )

Great list! I love watch hidden gem video game lists.

yes like you one of my fav games arkanoid still play it now, great vid.

I used to have Unirally on my snes back in the day. Great game 👍🏻

Interesting picks. No love for Ninjawarriors?

Love your show so much. Keep up the great content

did you know there is a VERY similar game to Equinox on the NES called Solstice? that cannot be a coincidence

My jaw is on the floor a little bit with some of these picks tbh.

This is a great list! I want to play all of them. Is Cybernatr the same as Gun Hazard?

A little paint is not worth the repurchase, and that packaging looks like the vintage line for sure.

Game Zone on the Middle level of the Darwin Centre? I used to buy my games there back when it was open.

Not a bad list, could still have more.

hmm. Cybernator was on the cover of magazines. not sure about that one

You forgot the best hidden gem, The Firemen. If you haven't played it yet, go play it, its amazing.

They did a couple of cybenater games on switch

Arkanoid is a double hidden gem! It’s compatible with the SNES mouse!

I see your video captures are from emulators and the games you show are mostly pal, I was wondering what your preference is to playing, 50hz pal on real hardware crt etc or just running ntsc versions on an emulator, would be a cool video to discuss, my self I prefer hardware and ntsc games, even though I'm from the UK, but I play mostly on and emu because it's just so more convenient :/

Sparkster ~

Wario's Woods is totally bonkers multiplayer

I THINK THAT TOP GEAR 3000 IS A HIDDEN GEM BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW THAT TOP GEAR HAS THREE ENTRIES ON THE CONSLE IT IS AN AWESOME RACER!

Had Equinox as a child but I hated it because it was too complicated lol😅😅

I'm surprised there is no Harvest Moon in this gems!

you've got a great voice

Rock & Roll Racing is not a hidden gem, lol. Great list though! Thank you!

Cybenater fantastic but short game
