Line 84:
* ''Backyard Skateboarding'', unlike the rest of the [[Backyard Sports]] series, is an adventure game with tons of [[Fetch Quest]]s. It also has bosses, which the main games lack.
* ''[[Halo]] Wars'', a [[Real Time Strategy]] game amongst a family of first person shooters. Also made by a different developer. It's oddball nature is ironic, because ''Halo'' was ''originally'' conceived of as an RTS.
* ''[[Parodius|Paro]] Wars'', a Turn-Based Strategy Game amongst a family of completely silly shmups. Yes, it is a fairly serious and difficult military strategy game not unlike the Nintendo Wars series, with all the goofy Parodius characters such as Moai heads, penguins, octopi and dogs in business suits!

* Oddly enough, the [[Early Installment Weirdness|''first'' installment]] of ''[[Touhou Project|Touhou]]'', ''Highly Responsive to Prayers''. It's a weird ''Breakout''-like in what would become a [[Bullet Hell]] series. [[Word of God]] says it was actually a "study product."
** Also the ''Phantasmagoria'' games, which are versus shooters.
