I find that Wario Land Shake It for the Wii is a fairly underrated gem (no pun intended).
I was expecting a fan of the Wario Land games to say Shake it is underrated! I was expecting someone to say Wario Land 3 tbh

MadWorld for the Wii tbh. It may not be perfect, but man if it isn't one hidden gem from the Wii's amazing catalog of games

I forgot about a underrated indie game on the WiiU I often enjoy playing during the WiiU era; High Strangeness!

In case ya don't know, "High Strangeness" is a Zelda/Secret of Mana clone with a interesting gimmick, you can switch between 8-bit & 16-bit.

Speaking of Wii U games, I feel like Nintendo Land is a bit underrated. It's a fun party game that I occasionally still play with a few friends.

Pac-Man is underrated. It's a maze arcade game where the player controls Pac-Man inside a closed maze while avoiding 4 colored ghosts. (Though I'm guessing you already knew that)

Given that superbird111 included PacMan in TGE10 (alongside Sonic, DK, Crash Bandicoot, Kirby, Mega Man and Mega Man X), I'm not sure if it's really "underrated" at all

Well, I couldn't come up with an underrated game myself, so I asked my mom what she thought was an underrated game and she said Pac-Man. That's why I said Pac-Man.

Eh, I'd probably say that Pac-Land is a bit more underrated. It's a sidescrolling Pac-Man game that looks like it was made in MS paint, but it's quite fun.

I'm surprised that nobody in the SMBX community mentions any of the "The Legend of Dark Witch" games in this topic. :o

It's just a Mega Man knock-off with the hero and bosses being cute anime girls

Why would you be surprised that nobody is mentioning games most people have never heard of?

There's a game that sounds similar to what you just said. It's called "Rosenkreuzstilette". A bit of a mouthful, but its a pretty cool game.

Damn, did you ask the whole forum if they know these games or what?

I did, in a topic about the Dark Witch games, but no one replied to it

Kid Icarus is pretty underrated.

I think there's only 3 games in the series.

I'd say yes to the first 2, but Uprising was very much a praised game. It's more of a lesser known series.

Lemme guess why you think Kid Icarus is underrated. It's one of Sakurai's less successful series. :idea:
