Rune Factory Frontier and Rune Factory 2. Harvest Moon... but with swords! And monsters! and dungeons!
Speaking of Harvest Moon, Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life and Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town. I love both of them.

I own Earthworm Jim, Earthworm Jim 2 and Earthworm Jim 3D.
The Ooze for the Sega Genesis. It's such a weird game. Basic storyline is that you're caught attempting to hack the computer of the company you work for to rat them out for the illegal experiments they're doing, the boss has two big guys inject with green ooze, causing you to melt into a pile of green mush and they flush you down the toilet. You somehow survive the process, and now as The Ooze, must fight your way back out of the sewers to seek revenge!

Pac-Man 2 for the Genesis, anyone?
How about Micheal Jackson's Moonwalker?
The Lost Vikings?
Super Hydlide?
Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine?
Revolution X featuring Aerosmith?

But enough about genesis games I own. Let's move on to that SNES... thing... called "Lester the Unlikely". The only game where you play as a wimpy nerd who is so scared that he'll run away from enemies off cliffs and to your doom. Pitiful.

An absolute favorite of my N64 games is Hot Wheels Turbo Racing. Marvelous little game. I speedrun it.
A game I love for the Wii is Trackmania: Build To Race. Of course, all Trackmania games are excellent, but I feel BTR gets passed up on the love.
I know I have more that I'm forgetting right now...
Mean Bean machine was freaking awesome,the graphics,gameplay,everything. Surprised it would be obscure.
Well, it sold very poorly compared to every other Sonic game for the Genesis. It's the only Sonic game for the genesis that you never actually see Sonic and featured the cast of the cartoon. Obscure enough for me.
Oh, and another thing I remembered, although it's not a game. I got one of these:

and one of these:

But I'll be shipping off the Pikachu controller here shortly.
Amazing,The only special gaming thing I own is a GBA which I'm sure isn't as special as I think. Mean Bean probably sold bad due to it not being a fast 'platformer'
The Ooze was also a 'ok' game you mentioned.

I got that one (Sonic Classics is what it's called) as well as 6-Pak which has Golden Axe, Sonic 1, Super Hang-On, Colums, Streets of Rage, and Revenge of Shinobi.

If Vectorman counts,then I say Vectorman 2 counts.
I have this one sega genesis game I don't remember the story exactly since the only thing I've been playing on it is sonic 3 and knuckles,but I think your a robber or thief in a building trying to do something,Idk didn't really care for the story,then I guess theres cops and you were supposed to rob the building I dont really know since I didn't play much of the game,the one I did play alot though was Sonic Spinball,now I don't know if I can call this 'Obscure' because some sega genesis' you can buy have around 100 in 1 games installed on them or something,but Sonic Spinball came on one I recently bought,So heres the gameplay,you get spinball,shove sonic on it BAM! Sonic Spinball! the game was ok,not the best spinball games but ok,the controls could have been a lot better. Lets see what else did I have...Chakan:The Forever Man? Is that considered obscure?

I think you might be thinking of Bonanza Bros.

If Vectorman counts, I do own Vectorman 1 and 2. My Genesis collection is decent.

Gal Gun on Xbox 360. It's a game in which you go around a school and shoot love hearts at them.

Here's a gif:

I have a few obscure ports

Sims 3 - DS Port
Sims 2 - GBA Port
Alien Hominid - GBA Port (Not really sure if this is obscure)
Cave Story - Nintendo DSi

Remember everyone,ports count.

I don't know if it is considered obscure, but to me it is due to the lack of anyone really talking about it much these days; The Legend of the Dragoon for the PS1.

I first saw it as a rental in the late 90's/early 2000's and it was so cool looking to me. Even the cover art for the discs was amazing. It was in full color, 4 discs each with a main character on it.

Unfortunately my copy was the Greatest Hits version so it was black and white for the disc but thankfully the instruction booklet was in color. Those were the days when your instruction book was a mini artbook in and of itself.

The other would be my copy of Chrono Cross. Someone already mentioned that too. But everyone always talks about Chrono Trigger over Cross which is understandable in many ways. I still like and enjoy it simply because it is what introduced me to Trigger. Without Cross I might not have ever played Trigger despite that my rental place had both.

I think the line between "obscure" and "rare" is getting blurrier and blurrier here.

I think its basically only 'rare' now,We may get some obscure thing time to time,most people now are just posting stuff from their game collections for some reason.

Shit's hype when you're effing around with friends. Get yourself an NTSC-J Xbox 360. You're missing out some seriously amazing exclusives.
