    The Lost Vikings is still one the funniest puzzle/adventure games ever made.

    And A Boy and His Blob was definately a winner...thankfully I believe they either already have or will shortly be porting it to GBA.


    However, as far as games go that they don't make anymore, I have a more general response- co-opt games. It seems to me that most games out there today (at least most quality titles) focus their multiplayer on competitive versus play styles than good old fashioned multiplayer teamwork styles that were found long ago on such great games as Battletoads, Chip 'N Dale's Rescue Rangers, Double Dragon, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2, 3 & 4 and the god of all games that are great: Contra.

    Jedi Power Battles had the right idea but wasn't that great of a game overall due to control issues, IMO.
