There was a really old japanese sidescroller/platformer that involved a bald monk kid running around smashing stuff with his forehead and would turn into some fire breathing godzilla thing once you eat power ups. I THINK it was on the SNES, and i played it on JAL airlines a long time ago.



Super Bonk. Super Bonk 2 has been translated too, quite fun.

This sounds like stargun or stargunner to me.

It was a turn based strategy game (PC) that I played over a decade ago. You started out with a castle and basically you had to capture other castles. There were also neutral castles throughout the map that any side could capture. Also each side started out with a main hero I think.

And I don't remember too much else about it =(

Was quite some time ago.

Edit: Depending when I played it, it might have been for Mac actually.

This was for the NES. You were a knight, and your country was at war with another country or something. You had to bombard the gates of a castle to get inside, and once inside you had to sword fight another character.

That sounds a lot like Heroes of Might and Magic, anywhere from number one to three. Then again, it could probably be a million other games too.

Look up Warlords (one or two) as well.

There was a chess like game I used to play except it had a twist. On one side it had what seemed to be the "good" side or something, with the other side being more "evil" and what not. What was different was that you moved the pieces like regular chess pieces, but when you go to capture one of the other pieces a sub game appears in where the two pieces battle it out and you control them. The two pieces have two attacks and the goal is to bring their health down to zero, obviously. Pieces from what I remembered went like pawns being footmen/grunts, some sort of caster as the bishops, I know the evil side had a dragon or two....don't remember much more. I do remember the casters being able to summon elementals or something like that onto the board to battle. Anything else is lost in my memory. Oh yes, the evil side had some sort of shape shifter as well that became the mirror image of whatever piece it was battling.

Second game was wwii game about American planes in the pacific where the plane had an option of bombs rockets or torpedo and had to kill everyone on an island and then a few carriers that was a PC game.

It's probably "Wings of Fury", but that's not originally a PC game, so you've probably played a ported version.

Sounds like Warlords 1 or 2, but your description also fits Heroes of might and magic and age of wonders series.

Well, I will give this thread a shot, I haven't been able to find this game for a decade now.

It was a soccer game for some sort of Nintendo IIRC where you could only play as Japan. You controlled one guy the rest was on AI. Each of your players as well the opposing teams had a special super shot, like transforming the ball into something. The whole game was really cartoonish with all sorts of funny stuff (on certain fields lightning would randomly strike players, or a tornado blow them off the field, or idle players sinking in the mud etc.)

The game consisted of 2 phases, first you could play 4 teams of each 4 regions (something like Asia, Africa, America, Europe) and if you have won enough games, you got to the world cup.

Could somebody help me find it? I used to have this game on a console thing but it doesn't work anymore.


Nintendo World Cup



Now there is Mario Strikers Charged for Wii that is almost the same gameplay-wise

I've been around since it all started, and it feels good

warlords was such an awesome game

I would always go for those yellow guys first (storm giants?) and then kill the white guys

they were annoying, because you had to waste a lot of turns moving south and thn north after you killed him plus half the time he got a dragon or wraith or something from a temple and thats just no good

I actually prefer warlords 1 to warlords 2 to be honest
