What are some games that followed the 90s trend of gross stuff being cool?

Ooze
Ren & Stimpy is cheating, but still

It was more of a western thing, in Japan it didn't really catch on so I don't remember so many of these games

I disagree. There really wasn't that much gross about it save for the occasional burp.

it was more of an 80's trend

Well it started in the '80s with stuff like Garbage Pail Kids and continued into the '90s, like your triangles and squiggly lines. Nickelodeon was probably responsible for spurring its popularity further with their slime and gak. Then also punk/grunge broke and it kinda went along with that gross stuff (see any Butthole Surfers album cover art).

I think it counts, there were burping attacks and puking.

Also, Primal Rage had one character that fought with puke and fart attacks.

That show never resonated with me in any way what so ever as a kid. The monster designs weren't cool or interesting, they were just odd. It was impossible to relate to anything that went on. Overall: Dull as fuck show.

I never really liked any of the Klasky Csupo Nicktoons, not even Rugrats.

This game was muy 90's, it was the definition of "rad".

I love every excuse to post pic related. I saw this in a magazine back in the day and it's been burned into my brain ever since.

PO'ed would be another good choice, it's got the infamous walking butt enemies that fart projectiles at you.

I feel like 80s grossness was more splatter/horror stuff, or comic-style like Mad Magazine, whereas 90s went overboard with realistic grime and grotesqueness.
