What are your favorite underrated or lesser known classics, ps1/n64 and older?

I downloaded a rom set on my handheld so I've been trying games I'd never played before

New to me

2020 Super Baseball (neogeo) - futuristic arcade baseball
Baseball Stars 2 (neogeo) - regular arcade baseball
Ehrgeiz : God Bless the Ring (psx) - 3d wrestling/fighter with a single player dungeon crawling mode and a bunch of FFVII characters
Garou: Mark of the Wolves (neogeo) - 2d fighter with nice artwork
Rival Schools : United by Fate (psx) - 3d fighter with a voiced campaign
Soccer Brawl (neogeo) - futuristic arcade soccer
Tobai No. 1 (psx) - 3d fighter with a single player dungeon crawling mode
Waku Waku 7 (neogeo) - 2d fighter with nice artwork

Still want to try

Armored Core (psx)
Breath of Fire IV (psx)
Front Mission 3 (psx)
Industrial Spy : Operation Espionage (dreamcast)
Racing Lagoon (psx)
Saga Frontier 2 (psx)

Great post! Here are some that come to mind:

Aggressors of Dark Kombat (Neo Geo): It's not an Mortal Kombat clone, nor is it an Street Fighter one, it's an mix of a fighting game, an beat em up and a wrestling game with a potentially hilarious counter-grapple mechanic.

Bank Panic (Arcade): An amusing western-themed "FPS" with many goofy elements.

Boogie Wings (Arcade): An 1920-theme side scrolling shooter with many unique mechanics, including a grappler hook and many vehicles.

Guerrilla War (Arcade / NES): An top-down shooter starring Ernesto Guevara and Fidel Castro. Yes, really! The NES version is quite different and slightly better than the arcade one.

Hebereke no Popoon (Arcade): Versus-puzzle-game with match three mechanics, special attacks and probably the best voice acting in the video game world.

Violent Storm (Arcade): A quick-paced beat em up with great aesthetics and various vocal songs.
