Games you remember but don't remember the names of.

I know it's a Sonic the Hedgehog game but it's one I saw in the arcade as a kid.

You used what looked like the old roller ball you got in old mouses to move him around.

I think Mighty the Armadillo was also a playable character.

I just remember nothing else about the game.

Nintendo 64 fighting game. It had two games on it. One was a traditional Tekken-style 3D fighter, and the other was a faster game with Super-Deformed versions of the same characters. It had an incredibly involved create-a-character system for the time, and I remember making a like 5-foot-tall school girl and making her train with the wrestler to learn nothing but german suplexes and pile drivers and shit.

Sounds like Flying Dragon

Man, it has been so long now that i'm forgetting the details but their was this computer game where you play as a detective and I think you are an animal or something and you have to solve clues.

There was also this monster mash type game where you could the like click on them and have different shit happen. I used to always run away from the computer because their was a certain person you would click on and his whole face would go crazy and he would spazz out

I remember a Magic School Bus game too where you had to collect things but I forgot the name of it

I want to say I played those games between Kindergarden and 2nd grade

Is the first one Sam & Max:Hit The Road by any chance?

The monster one sounds so familiar.

Am arcade game, it was a motorcycle one, it was like a sci-fi Road Rash, you were on tracks with weapons like an insanely large mace.

Only saw it one time before the arcade closed, mid-late 90s.

A game I think for MS-DOS and I want to say it was around late 80s to early 90s. Basically, you go around and try to capture creatures with a net. I remember one creature would come out of the wall and had pinchers like a big "C". The graphics reminded me of commodore 64 graphics games like Frankie goes to Hollywood and pitfall 2.

Remember this game for the SNES where you played as a ball, but a smart ball. And this smart ball traversed some colorful platform stages jumping on enemies, Mario style. And this smart ball could also get special abilities via power ups that lasted for a limited time.

Think it was called “Intelligent Sphere” or something like that.

If we are doing board games, there was one I got for Christmas in '81 or so. It had multiple cardboard maps that fit together like puzzle pieces in order to make a playing field about 5 feet long by 1.5 feet wide. The players are all on a long road trip and the goal was to get home first. I really don't remember any other details than that, but I do remember having lots of fun playing it.

Nah it wasn't Sam & Max it was something else. I used to know the name of it but I forgot it 

I do remember one game for the life of me for a long time I couldn't remember. 



The beginning I always remembered learning how to do your moves and all of that and then going into the forest. I think like a few years ago I came across the title and was like holy shit that is it

TBH, I only figured out the game because I remembered watching a SNESDrunk video on it.
