PLEASE ADD VECTOR MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I grew up with both Vectorman games on Sega Genesis. Often compared to Donkey Kong Country on SNES. Mostly due to being 2D platformers with some 3D models. But Vectorman actually more of a run & gun style platformer. They were quite creative with the presentation. Instead of the usual Sega logo then the game loads. It stops to allow you to play around the Sega logo with some secrets. It's a rather decent game with an amazing soundtrack. Fantastic sound effects despite the audio chip for the system not great. Vectorman had some mind blowing animations. A good variety of stages to keep things interesting. The same company made two decent Jurassic Park games on the same system. Which you can currently get through Jurassic Park Classic Games Collection. Vectorman does have a learning curve. Some amazing power ups to help through out the stages. It was released late into the Genesis run. I still felt among the best Genesis games of it's year. Vectorman isn't quite Mega Man but more of his own thing. I always remembered the cover for a long time. This was an ambitious Genesis game that held up amazingly well.
Old but gold. Running around the distinct rapid fire "pff-pff-pff-pff" sound effect for attacks was so much fun. The bosses, enemies, and levels were very unique for their time.
Pizza TowerPizza Tower is a 2D platformer mainly inspired by Wario Land and Earthworm Jim. The game has over-the-top hand-drawn animations and music. You play as Peppino Spaghetti, a manic pizza man with many abilities like charging, super jumping and dashing.

Tomba!Tomba! is a side-scrolling platformer in which players control Tomba, a wild boy on the search for his grandfather's bangle that was stolen by some evil pigs. Although Tomba is normally restricted to a two-dimensional plane, there are certain points where he can jump or climb onto a new plane. Tomba's main method of attack is to jump on top of enemies to grab them, allowing him to hop around on them before throwing them away. This can also be used to open other objects such as eggs or treasure chests. Tomba is also able to use various projectile weapons such as maces and boomerangs and can swing on branches and poles.
The game is based around a mission system, where the main character's (Tomba's) skills are employed to complete various tasks. Completion of a mission gives a certain amount of adventure points (AP) which are required for AP boxes which contain food (which gives you AP and restores 1 space of vitality) or items, and you may for example need 50,000 AP to open one. AP is also used to gain access to special places or information later in the game. Not all missions are necessary to progress in the game, however, they are required to achieve full completion. There are 130 events (missions) in the game, many of them rely on other events to be completed.Action Fantasy
