Another SMS/Genesis/CD Recomendation thread ! This time : platformers !

[apachacha]

So after you guys were able to help me with finding some realy good Genesis shooties, I was wondering if you could do the same, but with platformers ?

I usualy prefer the unusual ones. Last one I beat was Dynamite Headdy.

Rocket Knight Adventures is fantastic, and it's got it's own little mechanic involving a jetpack.
beyond that, i don't really know off the top of my head, other than Vectorman 1+2

Land of Illusion (best of the three Mickey games)
Sonic 1
Ghouls and Ghosts
and Alex Kidd in Miracle World, of course.

Penguin Land is a good puzzle/platformer

[DragonmasterDan]

Aladdin!

[Tortured Skull]

Alisia Dragoon. Can't recommend that one enough

[Arkhan]

These are all genesis suggestions.

Kid Chameleon, Chuck Rock 2 (CD game), Ristar, I second the Rocket Knight and Alisia Dragoon.

Also, BlasterMaster 2.  f*ck the haters.

[Tortured Skull]

Jewel Master is nice too. Also El Viento.

[TheClash603]

Rocket Knight is damn good!  One of my favorite games on the system.

[Arkhan]

anything with armored possums is a recipe for f*ckYES

[Emerald Rocker]

Tortured Skull is my new hero.  Listen to what this man says.

I also vote for Rocket Knight: a variety of neat play mechanics such as navigating using your reflection, and a lot of cool, unexpected details like a chicken that follows you for a bit for no reason.  Cute animation, too!
