>>3939989
The application for being an eceleb has long been too late. The only way to make youtube videos and get popular these days are to show an extreme amount of autism or be politically or racially risque.
No, I just want to find cool games that aren't Earthbound/Megaman/Mario/Zelda that everyone already knows about.

Good sources of "hidden gems":

>pre-1990 home computer exclusives, the 8-bit era being more obscure than the 16-bit one
>arcade exclusives
>2nd gen console games
>games on systems that are hard to emulate, like the Saturn or 3DO
>games that require an unusual controller for the full experience
>Japan exclusives that don't even have a Hard Gay 101 page
>Games that aren't arcade games but simultaneously don't belong to a particular system, like LCD and tabletop games

Also, I'm nostalgic for that Harry Potter game, but I'm not sure if it's a gem. It's kind of buggy, you have no idea what the card spells do until you waste your cards by casting one, the gameplay has the depth of Dragon Quest 1, and there's not much to do outside of battle. Music's good though, you just know that if the game was released today, they'd shove fucking Hedwig's Theme into every scene.

Nothing that felt quite like this ever came out again.

Was a pretty good console in a way. Road Rash was one of the best games on earth at the time and other games like Crash n' Burn had a type of style and soul that is just completely missing from games now.
