Yeah, and PCB is pretty popular on there now. CDDA is often discussed, and ADOM is here and there. Every once in a while someone drags up a really obscure roguelike and does a run down of their game, which is pretty nice.

I posted a while ago on /vr/ about old console roguelikes. There weren't that many outside of Mystery Dungeon games. There's an interesting GameBoy roguelike called CaveNoire, and an interesting looking, untranslated roguelike on the SNES (can't recall the name).

Mystery Dungeon cames seemed to be heavily inspired by the original Rogue and not much else from the Western roguelike lineage. There are surprisingly few Japanese roguelikes outside of Mystery Dungeon. I catalogued three of them and was hoping to getting around to translating them, but that's fallen to the wayside. But, if anyone has info on more obscure roguelikes, please share!

Also, I should mention this to get more players, but I run a roguelike server at http://roguenex.us if you want to play online and share highscores and splat messages.
