Let's try to limit this to pre 32 bit games.

Please put your answer in spoiler tags so it doesn't ruin the fun for others.

Here's an easy one to start off with...

This was distributed by Capcom in the US, not sure if it made it out to a console, but hit the PC and Arcade around the time Street Fighter came out.

It's Super Don Quixote, one of the rarest laserdisc games. Luckily, I had this at the mall in some deli shop for about 2 years, now it is damn near impossible to find unless you have about 3 grand :(

The game was truly badass.

This thread would be a whole lot better if people would wait their turn. :)

Perhaps having the person who correctly guessed the game be the next one to post one.
